Are you dismissed? AVIS flexible fleet keeps costs in check

At a time when many companies are optimising costs and cutting back, it makes sense to have a flexible fleet. Long-term leases can tie up capital and increase risk when demand fluctuates. AVIS's medium and short term rental or short term leasing services allow you to adapt your fleet from month to month - no waiting, with vehicles available immediately.

Why bet on flexibility now

• No long tie-ups: adapt the number of cars to the current state of the company.
• Cost under control: you only pay for what you actually use (OPEX instead of bundled CAPEX).
• Fast availability: a wide range of vehicles in stock - from the Peugeot 208 AT and Skoda Superb Combi to the Renault Trafic 9-seater and Mercedes-Benz V-Class.
• Convenience of service: servicing, tyre service, insurance and assistance in a single monthly fee.
• No administrative burden: simple contract, online booking, the possibility to make an appointment

When is a short or medium term rental more profitable than a long lease

1. Uncertain order development - you need to scale your fleet according to projects.
2. Stock reduction - you don't want to pay for unused cars or deal with early lease terminations.
3. Seasonal peaks - logistics, retail, construction or tourism have cycles.
4. Recruiting - you need vehicles immediately, without production deadlines and lead times.
5. Pilot projects and trial periods - you'll test the need for mobility without a long commitment.

Comparison of options

Tip: If you are unsure of the horizon, start with a short-term lease that you can extend or shorten operationally.

Model examples from practice

• Reduce your team by 20%: Cancel 6 cars in one month with no penalties for early termination of an operating lease or other long term program.
• Quick hiring of 15 people: AVIS will supply immediately available vehicles for 3-6 months while the long-term need is confirmed.
• Seasonal project for 6 months: mix of vans and vans under AVIS MaxiRent - single monthly payment, clear costs.
• Temporary replacement of vehicles in production: short-term rental eliminates mobility shortfalls during long delivery periods.
