On Oct. 1 at the 2013 Green Fleet Conference & Expo, at least 21 manufactures will offer test drive vehicles at the Ride & Drive Street Fair. The Ride & Drive is free for fleets, public-policy makers, and fleet industry association members to participate.

The 2013 Green Fleet Conference & Expo’s Ride & Drive Street Fair on Oct. 1 in Phoenix includes at least 21 automakers offering test drives of alternatively fueled and powered vehicles.

From CNG cars and trucks to propane, electric and other technologies, the Ride & Drive is free — along with the 70,000 sq.-ft. exhibit hall and breakfast keynote speaker — for fleet attendees, public-policy makers, and fleet industry association members.

The two-day Green Fleet Conference, Oct. 1-2, also offers fleet-focused sessions and panels through three fleet tracks: commercial, heavy-duty truck, and government. From engaging with fleet professionals through a variety of networking events to hearing real-life experiences at the sessions, fleets will acquire the tools needed to further their green fleet initiatives.

The conference hotel, the Hyatt Regency Phoenix, has also extended its special rate for attendees through Sept. 16.

The full conference schedule and more info can be found at www.greenfleetconference.com.

Are You Tracking Your Fleet's True Total Cost of Ownership?

Bobit Business Media surveyed 190 fleet professionals and found that while most fleets are tracking costs, fragmented systems and data gaps are keeping true TCO visibility out of reach.
