The size of the vehicle will depend on what’s being transported. The weight of medical supplies, for example, will be much less than that of building materials. - Engines that do not have sufficient power will have performance and maintenance issues. But over specced trucks will also run a higher cost relative to the income they generate. - Will the vehicle be using petrol or diesel? Consider the distance the vehicles will cover in a year, if the fleet is going to run shorter distances, using petrol might be cheaper. - Is the vehicle going to be driven more on the highway or in the city? Trucks that are driven in the city are required to have more maneuverability. - Will you require automatic transmission? - Have you considered how to maximise fuel economy? - Have you thought about how best to schedule maintenance? - Is there a service network to support the vehicle when it needs parts? Outsourcing your [corporate fleet management](https://www.avisfleet.co.za/solutions/) to Avis Fleet will make you more efficient and save you money.   Contact us to discuss further how to enhance your fleet management though Avis Fleet Procurement.   [![Contact Us](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/483927/3ad1f786-00a8-4538-9d16-88b1cb681d9e.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/483927/3ad1f786-00a8-4538-9d16-88b1cb681d9e) [Back](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/latest-news/) -   -   -   [Back](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/latest-news/) | [All posts](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/latest-news/) ##### You might also like ![A fuel-saving guide for fleet drivers and managers](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/hubfs/Avis%20Blog%204.png) [A fuel-saving guide for fleet drivers and managers](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/latest-news/a-fuel-saving-guide-for-fleet-drivers-and-managers) August 24, 2020 ![How Avis optimised our fleet](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/hubfs/nelson-gono-h-kD4142VIQ-unsplash.jpg) [How Avis optimised our fleet](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/latest-news/how-avis-optimised-our-fleet) August 24, 2020 ![Why data accuracy is your most important fleet asset](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/hubfs/Avis_April_Content-16.jpg) [Why data accuracy is your most important fleet asset](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/latest-news/why-data-accuracy-is-your-most-important-fleet-asset) August 24, 2020 [![twitter icon (1)](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/hubfs/twitter%20icon%20(1).svg)](https://twitter.com/avis_fleet) [![linkedin icon (1)](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/hubfs/linkedin%20icon%20(1).svg)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/avis-fleet/?originalSubdomain=za) - Assist Numbers - [Driver Emergency 0800 540 740](tel:0800540740) - [Road Side Assistance 0800 117 686](tel:0800117686) - [Want to buy a car? 011 973 7300](tel:0119737300) - [Intelligent Fuel Bureau 031 466 2583](tel:0314662583) - [Accident Management 0800 033 002](tel:0800033002) - [Find out more 011 552 9000](tel:0115529000) - [About us](https://www.avisfleet.co.za/about-us) - [Careers](https://www.linkedin.com/company/zeda-southern-africa/jobs/) - [Solutions](https://www.avisfleet.co.za/solutions) - [Blog](https://blog.avisfleet.co.za/latest-news) - [Contact us](https://www.avisfleet.co.za/contact-us) - [Countries](https://www.avisfleet.co.za/countries/zambia) - [Service history](https://service-history.avisfleet.co.za/) Copyright 2026. [Avis Fleet Solutions](https://www.avisfleet.co.za/).
