The leasing broker sector is seeking to demonstrate its resilience and flexibility this year, after the BVRLA broker fleet contracted in 2024. Accounting for over 350,000 vehicles on UK roads, the broker fleet shrunk by 8.9% last year as customer confidence waned due to political and economic uncertainty.

As uncertainty seems to dominate the future of fleet transition, the need for clarity has never been greater. Whether relating to infrastructure, regulation, technology or the broader energy landscape, today's decision-makers are grappling with more questions than ever.
