New technology is giving fleets the opportunity to transform their efficiency and achieve reductions in fuel bills.

Expenditure on petrol and diesel may be the highest daily cost faced by fleets, but by choosing the most fuel-efficient cars, you have the chance to make savings on each and every business mile driven.

Mercedes-Benz BlueEFFICIENCY technology is at the vanguard of the automotive industry’s move towards ever more efficient vehicles. This cutting edge technology combines smaller, stratified direct injection engines, ECO stop-start functions, lighter vehicles, improved aerodynamics, and tyres with lower rolling resistance to achieve reductions in fuel consumption.

Improved efficiency means lower fuel bills, smaller corporate carbon footprints and cheaper company car tax bills.

The new Mercedes-Benz C220d, for example, features aerodynamic lines to reduce drag, while greater use of aluminium has trimmed its weight. The result is a car that returns up to 70.6 mpg on the combined cycle, which should bring a smile to your finance director’s face, while your drivers will love its wallet-friendly 103g/km of CO2 for company car tax calculations.
