When German fleet managers finance their fleet, they often choose the lease they are familiar with\u2014a mileage-based lease. Classic mileage-based leases seem to be the perfect solution: Choose runtime and mileage, done! It seems cheap and clearly regulated. Especially when requesting tenders, attention is often paid only to the cheapest leasing rate. But the devil is in the details, more precisely in the contracts. What seems cheap at the beginning can end up being expensive.<\/p>\n<p>Because only rarely is a car used exactly as planned. In this case, a mileage-based or closed-end lease can incur costs that are not always apparent at first glance in the contract clauses: Every extra mile driven costs more. But every mile not driven does not cost correspondingly less. These miles are remunerated at a lower rate, and the number of unused miles allowed is also capped. High penalty payments for damages are added.<\/p>\n<p>All of this can add up until the original invoice no longer fits.<br \/>\nAnyone who has been in the business for a while knows that the account is settled at the end, and the bad news often comes in the form of additional payments. That doesn&#8217;t feel right somehow, and yet in the next round of acquisition, you do it the same way again until you get used to it. But there is an alternative: Open-end leasing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                    <\/li>\n                                    <li class=\"\">\n                                                <div class=\"addition\">Why is the trend shifting from closed-end leasing to open-end leasing?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"body-3 content\"><p>Digitalization, e-mobility, cost pressure, scaling. Even before the unprecedented year of COVID, it was clear that change was coming to our industry. Now that change is definitely here. As a result, many supposedly immutable industry laws no longer apply. For example, that you are playing it safe if you finance your entire fleet with mileage-lease contracts and thus often cannot react flexibly to market events.<\/p>\n<p>In other countries, such as the US, these changes have been underway for several years. Fleet managers want to flexibly exploit the advantages resulting from market events. In short, they want to see the fleet service provider as a strategic partner and not as a perceived adversary who will restrict them contractually. The result is not only to deal almost exclusively with the leasing factor, but also to achieve holistic cost control. For example, the optimal time to replace vehicles can be found\u2014even taking unexpected repairs into account. Downtimes can also be minimized. These cost optimizations succeed due to two factors: 1. You need the necessary reciprocal data transparency with the fleet partner. And 2. Contracts with which you can flexibly implement the findings from the data.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure that German customers can also use this type of contract, we have designed the Open Flex system for Germany, at the heart of which is FlexLease.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                    <\/li>\n                                    <li class=\"\">\n                                                <div class=\"addition\">In a nutshell, how does the open leasing model FlexLease work?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"body-3 content\"><p>Open, full-service leasing is divided into three steps corresponding to everyday business life.<br \/>\n1.

Even though closed-end leasing can often offer lower rates at first glance, there is a risk of paying significantly more.\u00a0 The benefits of open-end leasing like our FlexLease product lie in the freedom with which you control your business, and the money you can save by controlling your fleet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our expert tip: FREE YOUR FLEET from contractual obligations.
