Thrifty Car & Van Rental has launched FlexiConnect, a new service designed to bring a greater level of visibility and reliability to UK pool fleets.
Developed to complement the company's existing corporate daily hire offer, FlexiConnect provides businesses with a fleet of long-term rental vehicles that individual employees can book for as little as 15 minutes at a time and gain instant access via a smartphone app or secure RFID card.
Thrifty says FlexiConnect is "well placed" to help businesses that are currently highly reliant on an owned or leased pool fleet, or that operates a grey fleet policy.
The service includes an integrated fleet management system, showing the vehicle’s status, location and condition, as well as access a suite of telematics data and the ability to define who can use the vehicle.
Martin Wilson, managing director of Thrifty Car & Van Rental UK, said: “FlexiConnect provides fleets with all the benefits of a conventional pool vehicle fleet, while offering a new layer of visibility, reliability and control powered by our all-new app and fleet management solution The introduction of FlexiConnect underlines our commitment to offer a full range of mobility solutions to businesses throughout the UK.”
"We have been able to bring FlexiConnect to market in record time, to quality befitting our exacting Corporate client base and deserving of the Thrifty name."
The FlexiConnect service is powered by the Ridecell fleet sharing platform.
