MERCEDES-BENZ has been named Fleet Manufacturer of the Year by the fleet title BusinessCar. Pictured above is head of fleet, Tom Brennan.
Editor Simon Harris praised Mercedes for giving fleets early access to a wide range of RDE2-compliant diesels, as well as getting a number of new plug-in hybrid variants to market in a crucial year.
Mercedes-Benz has backed this up with a restructured Fleet team set up to deliver increased true fleet sales.

In addition, the A 250 e plug-in hybrid won Best Plug-in Hybrid Car and was praised for its all-electric range of 44 miles, while the GLB won Best Large SUV thanks to its seven-seat practicality and range of RDE2-compliant engines.
This award from BusinessCar is a real testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, following the re-structure of our operations. Over the past year we have introduced a range of fleet-specific services aimed at better supporting our customers and it’s great to see this being recognised, and with more changes set for 2021 we plan to serve our customers even better going forward.
