Hyundai UK target SME fleet sales

The last few years has seen Hyundai convince the car buying public that their cars are as credible and well built – not to mention appealing – as anything from the mainstream; no longer a budget option, Hyundais are now a real force. So once you’ve cracked Joe Public and his preconceptions, the next step is to crack the bit of Joe Public that buys a few cars at a time – the owners of small and medium businesses (SME) with a modest fleet (by fleet standards) of up to ten cars.

With that in mind, Hyundai has appointed 27 Fleet Business Centres at Hyundai dealers across the UK with dedicated staff – and extra hand-holding and facilities – to coax the small business owner in to a bit of Hyundai goodness for his/her business.

As well as newly-trained staff capable of giving the right advice and right deal to business owners, Hyundai has also fitted their new Fleet Business Centres with a ‘work’ area for the hard-pressed business owner to do some work whilst their car/s are being serviced, and have even thrown in free wi-fi to keep them productive.

And if business customers don’t fancy supping Hyundai’s coffee and using their wi-fi whilst they work, Hyundai are also offering a free loan car and a pick-up and return service as an alternative.

Hyundai’s Fleet man, Martin Wilson, said:

Fleet Business Centres will help Hyundai build its presence in the fleet field by delivering uncompromised customer service and true value.

It shows Hyundai’s commitment to offering all fleet customers – regardless of fleet size – the best possible service that’s convenient and local to them along with the specialist knowledge of matching the right fleet vehicle with the specific business requirement.

Alongside recent appointments within our fleet team, the first 27 Hyundai Fleet Business Centres will be a vital asset in Hyundai’s ever-increasing fleet offering.

It’s a sensible move by Hyundai to mop up fleet sales from small businesses, businesses where the owner usually makes the decision.

And there’s a fair chance that owner will already know the appeal Hyundai cars have now, and appreciate knowing exactly what the future costs of car ownership with Hyundai are with their 5 year warranty.
