Renault Is Fleet News’ Most Improved Fleet Manufacturer

Triumphing over five other manufacturers, including BMW and Vauxhall, Renault has managed to pick up the ‘Most Improved Fleet Manufacturer’ at the Fleet News Awards 2011. Renault says this latest accolade is important as it “recognizes the series of initiatives which it has launched to enhance its fleet offering in the last year, including cost reduction and continued improvements in product and service quality.”

The judging panel took into consideration the number of changer undertaken by Renault UK to its fleet lineup and praised the manufacturer for its level of service, the quality of its range, plus the reductions in the cost of ownership.

“Renault’s efforts in listening to what fleet operators want and going the extra mile to deliver it has resulted in a transformation in how it is now perceived in the industry. It launched the Renault Business Promise, aiming to improve the service for fleet operators, as well as implementing ways of driving down their costs. Although there was some tough competition this year, Renault has done the most to improve,” the official statement from Fleet News reads.

“We’re absolutely delighted to have won this Fleet News award. This latest win, added to the 11 industry awards we won last year, represents excellent independent validation of the tremendous efforts we’ve put into reaffirming our position as one of the top UK fleet market players,” said Darren Payne, Renault UK’s Director of Fleet and Commercial Vehicle Operations, who collected the award at the official ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London.

“With one of the youngest car and LCV line-ups around, and the imminent launch of the final series of Master Van derivatives, we’re confident of our ability to build on our impressive sales results from last year in the months ahead,” Payne added.
