Toyota's Kinto mobility division has partnered with Fleetondemand to offer a business Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) solution for UK fleets.

Fleetondemand's Mobilleo platform will underpin Kinto's MaaS offering that will consolidate car hire, car clubs, taxis, buses, demand responsive transit, trains, trams, tube, flights, ferries, bike sharing, hotels, parking and more through a single touchpoint on both desktop and smartphone.

Toyota rebranded Inchcape Fleet Solutions as Kinto in June this year following its acquisition of IFS for £100 million in December 2019.

Kinto said the new MaaS platform will help businesses save costs by consolidating travel booking and expenses, offering alternatives to company cars, cash allowance and grey fleet usage, enhancing employee benefit programmes, improving corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies and driving total cost of mobility intelligence across the business.

Matthew Rumble, Kinto UK chief executive, said: “We understand that the way people and businesses move is changing and our new solution will enable us to support our customers as they begin on their mobility journey. 

“With a number of schemes already in the pipeline, I am excited to see how we can help shape the future of fleet & travel for many companies across the UK.” 

Matt Terry, Fleetondemand head of business MaaS, said the acceleration of businesses looking for MaaS solutions is reaching an inflection point towards 2021.

He added: “Businesses are now starting to consider the wider mobility mix going forward and what this means sitting alongside the use of company cars.”
