Commercial vehicle leasing with MHC Mobility

Commercial vehicle leasing always makes sense when vehicles are used regularly and permanently in day-to-day operations. Typical areas of use include the transportation of tools and materials, mobile service operations, construction site trips or delivery and logistics tasks. In these scenarios, short-term flexibility is less important than reliability, predictability and economical use over several years.

Commercial vehicles must be clearly calculable, especially in the commercial sector. Leasing enables companies to plan vehicles for the long term, equip them uniformly and integrate them into the fleet in a structured manner. Instead of high investments when purchasing, fixed monthly installments are incurred that can be clearly allocated to ongoing operations. Commercial vehicle leasing also offers a stable basis for a scalable fleet strategy for growing companies or companies with several vehicles.

When setting up or expanding a vehicle fleet, many companies are faced with the question of whether to buy or lease commercial vehicles. The purchase of a commercial vehicle ties up capital and requires long-term depreciation. In addition, the company bears the full risk of depreciation, resale and unforeseen costs during the vehicle’s useful life.

Commercial vehicle leasing is a structured alternative to this. Companies pay fixed monthly installments and can plan the use of their vehicles without permanently tying up capital. At the end of the term, commercial vehicles can be returned or replaced with new vehicles. Leasing simplifies the continuous renewal of the vehicle fleet and ensures that the technical equipment remains the same, particularly in the case of heavily used vehicles.

Commercial vehicle leasing is carried out by MHC Mobility as part of SelectRent. This is classic commercial leasing supplemented by a clearly structured service approach and central support. The aim is to deploy commercial vehicles in the company long-term, reliably and without unnecessary administrative effort.

In contrast to short-term rental or subscription models, SelectRent is designed for long-term use. Companies configure their commercial vehicle individually and define all relevant parameters such as term, mileage and scope of service before the contract begins. This creates a high level of planning security over the entire contract period.

The process in detail:

1. needs assessment and deployment analysis

Together, we analyze how the commercial vehicle is to be used. Factors such as sector, daily use, transport requirements, payload, body variants and planned service life play a central role.

2. vehicle selection and configuration

Companies choose the manufacturer, model and equipment of their commercial vehicle. If required, industry-specific installations and superstructures, special equipment or lettering can be taken into account.

3. definition of the scope of service

The included basic service package forms the basis of the leasing contract. Supplementary services can be added on a modular basis, depending on the desired level of relief in the fleet.

4. conclusion of contract

After checking the company documents, the leasing contract is drawn up. All defined services and conditions are transparently mapped in the contract.

5. vehicle provision

The commercial vehicle is registered and either delivered to the company site or handed over at an MHC Mobility Center.

6. ongoing support during use

MHC Mobility takes over the coordination of maintenance, tire service, UVV inspections and other organizational issues for the entire duration of the contract.

7. return or extension of contract

At the end of the term, the commercial vehicle is returned or the leasing contract can be extended if required.

The costs of commercial vehicle leasing can be clearly structured and planned for the long term in a commercial environment. The monthly leasing rate is calculated individually and realistically reflects the actual use of the vehicle.

The most important influencing factors include

• Vehicle model and vehicle class
• Individual equipment and superstructures
• Agreed term
• Planned mileage
• Intensity of use in day-to-day business
• Selected scope of service

These factors result in a transparent cost structure that can be reliably allocated to ongoing operations. Commercial vehicle leasing offers from MHC Mobility are always based on the company’s specific deployment profile and not on blanket price campaigns. The aim is to find a fleet solution that makes economic sense and is sustainable in the long term.

When leasing commercial vehicles with SelectRent, a comprehensive basic service package is already included in the monthly rental rate. This significantly reduces the organizational effort in the company, especially if there are several vehicles or heavily used commercial vehicles.

The included scope of services includes

• Maintenance services
• Wear and tear repairs
• Tires
• Liability insurance
• Accident prevention regulations UVV
• 24-hour emergency service
• Replacement car service
• Broadcasting fee
• Reduction of liability
• Pick-up and delivery service
• Consulting
• Vehicle tax

In addition, further services can be added individually, such as special bodies, lettering or industry-specific special solutions. Consumption-related costs such as fuel or electricity are not included in the monthly rental rate and continue to be borne directly by the company.

When leasing commercial vehicles in the commercial sector, it is not the manufacturer that comes first, but the specific application profile in the company. Commercial vehicles must function reliably, offer sufficient loading volume or payload and be economical to use over their entire service life. Nevertheless, manufacturers play a role for many companies, for example due to existing fleet standards or internal specifications.

With SelectRent, Volkswagen commercial vehicles can be configured and leased on a long-term basis. VW commercial vehicles are particularly popular in the commercial sector, as they cover various vehicle classes and are suitable for different areas of use. Other manufacturers and model series can also be taken into account as required. MHC Mobility works independently of manufacturers and advises companies objectively on the basis of actual requirements.

Typical vehicle classes in commercial vehicle leasing are:

• Panel van for transportation and service operations
• Platform trucks for trade and construction
• Vans with individual bodies and superstructures
• Commercial vehicles with special equipment for industry-specific requirements
