Car sharing — the future of the fleet?

Traditional company car use won’t disappear, but it is changing, according to Australasian Fleet Management Association (AfMA).

Current carpooling services scratch the surface in terms of what the future of mobility looks like. Climate change, cost savings and legislation change the way we use our vehicles and get our staff and resources from place to place.

Gartner research suggests that car sharing and carpooling are likely to represent approximately 20% of vehicles in urban areas by 2025. This is a large leap for the Australian fleet industry and a large portion of corporate vehicles. How will organisations with fleets adapt?

To discover the future of the fleet, join Mace Hartley Executive Director of AfMA and a panel of industry experts. Hear all about the future of business car sharing and the growing car-subscription market within the context of fleet management. Expert panel members on hand to answer your questions include:
