Connectivity and vehicle data are already disrupting the traditional economics and R&D focus of the automotive industry, as well as many of the legal frameworks and business models that have served the fleet industry for so many years.
To try and help its members navigate this uncertain and fast-moving environment, the BVRLA has worked with Connected Vehicle consultants SBD Automotive to compile this report. Using their knowledge and understanding of connected vehicle trends and strategies SBD conducted a series of in-depth interviews with senior executives at a number of vehicle rental and leasing companies. The results have been compiled in this report which we hope will provide a useful perspective on the issues surrounding embedded vehicle connectivity and an insight into the way organisations across the sector are trying to unlock the huge value of vehicle data.
