Summary and extracts

1 Market overview

1.1 Scope of the study

For companies, fleet management consists of freeing themselves from the management of their employees' vehicles in a direct entrusting this task to professionals.

Thus, this task, which includes vehicle acquisition (purchase or rental), maintenance, insurance and driver management, can also be internal to a company, but is usually outsourced. This fleet management market is closely linked to the car leasing market, i.e. the long-term rental market and the rental with purchase option market.

The global fleet management market is booming: it has been valued at $20.6 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $33.9 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 10.5% to 2026.

However, the car fleet management market in France, which has historically been a single-supplier market, has been experiencing a real boom in recent years fragmentation . Subjected to strong economic constraints, companies no longer hesitate to entrust the management of their vehicles to several service providers in order to obtain the best guarantees and pricing conditions. We are also witnessing a struggle between financial institutions and car manufacturers who are both trying to control the fleet management market in France, the former with the advantage of financial resources and the latter with automotive expertise.

The environmental tax encourages companies to adopt innovative solutions, such as car-sharing. To meet their CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) commitments, some large groups have already taken the step of electric fleet while many SMEs or ETIs no longer hesitate to resort to a used car fleet . All these structural trends point to a French fleet management market that will undergo a transformation in the coming years, a transformation that has already begun in part.
