VOLKSWAGEN Financial Services (UK) has rebranded its independent leasing arm, International Fleet Management, as Europcar Fleet Services UK.

The move aims to bring the UK business into line with the multi-marque leasing business in the rest of Europe. The Europcar Fleet Services brand will also allow VWFS to work closely with its sister company and rental partner, Europcar International Rental.

Europcar Fleet Services (ECFS) operates directly in Germany, Spain, Italy and Portugal and via associates in many of the remaining countries across Europe, including France, Belgium, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria and Switzerland.

The new operation went live this week and will offer a full range of contract hire, leasing and service related products on all-makes of vehicle.
