A vehicle research tool on Bobit fleet websites allows fleet managers to search and compare vehicle lifecycle costs and fleet incentives.

Powered by Vincentric, the tool provides data for vehicles up to and including Class 2. It considers fleet incentives, cost per mile, depreciation, total fuel cost, mpg, and maintenance and acquisition costs.

The comparison tool allows for analysis across vehicle class and brand. Fleet managers can use the tool to make purchasing decisions taking into account total cost of ownership.

Access the tool through the Vehicle Research channel or clicking here.

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. With rising pressure to control spend in an increasingly volatile environment, the gap between what fleets think they know and what the data actually shows is wider than you might expect. See how your peers are managing costs today and where the industry still has room to improve.
