Full Maintenance Leases
Our Full Maintenance Lease is a comprehensive “full-suite” service where, for a monthly rental, you enjoy the use of vehicles that we source and purchase for your use. We carry the residual value risk on all vehicles and dispose of them at the end of the contract. We also bear the cost of maintenance.
We constantly monitor your fleet and work with you to keep your rentals in line with vehicle use. At the end of the contract you simply return the vehicle.
Full maintenance lease contracts provide you with many key benefits:
- The fixed terms facilitate accurate cash-flow forecasting
- Input VAT on maintenance expenditure is full recoverable
Operating rentals
This is where you enjoy the use of the vehicle for a monthly rental and pay the actual maintenance expenses incurred.
Our technical support and the close management of all maintenance invoices will ensure that all costs are duly authorised and unnecessary expenses are avoided. At the end of the contract you simply return the vehicle and pay for any extra kilometres you have travelled.
Operating Rentals enable you to:
- Fully recover input VAT on maintenance costs
- Keep your maintenance costs at minimum
Managed Maintenance
Our skilled technical experts provide cost effective and proactive maintenance management. These costs, paid by Absa Vehicle Management Solutions, will be recovered from you at the end of every month, after invoices have been scrutinised for accuracy and appropriateness and after we have ensured that the work is done according to the manufacturer’s requirements.
Management Reporting
This plan is ideal when you need only reporting capabilities, perhaps together with our fuel card service, on a part of your fleet not managed by us through one of our other agreement types. We will capture information on these vehicles onto our system so that you are able to access information on your whole fleet in one set of reports.

AFS (E-Fuel)
E-Fuel is a card-free, cashless system using technology to pre-authorize and conclude a refuelling transaction. The vehicle and not the driver authorizes the transaction. By introducing this technology, the customer is provided with a preventative control measure to ensure that a vehicle is present when fuel is dispensed, and allocation of fuel is properly recorded against a specific vehicle.
