Questions about the vehicle fleet?
One size doesn't fill all
Ayvens Flex
For many of us, flexibility is key and that is what Ayvens Flex offers. The flexibility to have a full-service lease from 1-24 months, a vehicle that’s available immediately, no early termination fees if you decide to return it early and a replacement vehicle if your car is out of service (for repairs) for more than 1 day.
Ayvens Electric
Ready to make the switch to electric? Ayvens are experts at fleet electrification and here to support fleets and drivers in making that change. With advice on charging, updating car policies, transition support and more, it has never been easier to make the switch. Find out more about transition to an electric fleet.
Used car leasing
Looking for a lease car but on a budget? Or need a car quickly? Used car leasing can be the perfect solution. All cars are four years old or younger, well maintained and have a low mileage. Leasing a used car means the car is available to be delivered much faster than a new car, 12-month leases are available, and it is more affordable than leasing a new car. Find out more about used car leasing.
Commercial vehicle leasing
At Ayvens, we know a van is not a car and requires a different approach. This is why we are specialised in both passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. Offering tailor-made advice on LCVs from choosing the right vehicle to setting up racking, we are here for you. Find out more about leasing a commercial vehicle.
