Wheels Donlen’s parent company has signed a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire LeasePlan USA, and subsequently combine the business with Wheels Donlen to create a unified fleet management business.
The framework agreement signed on April 22, 2022 is binding, further forging a combined portfolio of 3.5 million vehicles under fleet management.
The app features a completely redesigned user interface built on a new, more flexible platform, and is designed to empower drivers to be more productive, freeing up time spent managing tasks and vehicle-related deadlines.
LeasePlan USA launched a partnership with mobile maintenance and repair services provider YourMechanic to establish contact-free vehicle maintenance services for its clients’ cars and light-duty vehicles.
LeasePlan USA has begun offering a connected vehicle cloud platform called OneConnect that expands the fleet management company's telematics offering to its commercial fleet clients.
Fleet order-to-delivery times for model-year 2019 increased in comparison to those in MY-2018. Delays were caused by rail constraints, plant downtimes, truck driver shortages, production capacity strains, and early order cutoffs.
LeasePlan USA has added voice recognition technology to its mobile app that allows fleet drivers access to vehicle and fleet related information in real-time.
LeasePlan USA will begin offering its commercial fleets telematics products from Geotab, a Toronto-area leader in tracking and connected vehicle technology.
As part of the partnership, FleetCor will manage the back-end system processing and billing of LeasePlan’s new universal fuel card. FleetCor will also manage and provide a variety of other services for LeasePlan USA, the company stated.
Matt Dyer was previously the managing director for LeasePlan UK, and has more than 20 years of experience working for the fleet management company.
