The ADME Newsroom is a news aggregator. Headlines, excerpts and article images remain the property of their original publishers, are shown for the purpose of reporting news, and always link to and credit the original reporting. Items marked “file image” use manufacturer-supplied press imagery of the vehicle referenced; vehicle and brand names are trademarks of their respective owners.

Quick-read summaries and “ADME commentary” are our own, are clearly marked, and are general industry commentary — not financial, legal or purchasing advice. Summaries and commentary may be AI-assisted and can contain errors — always check the original reporting before relying on specifics. Publishers and manufacturers: for corrections, attribution changes or removal, contact advertising@adme.net.au and we'll action it promptly. Read our editorial standards.

ADME commentary

The ADME angle

The days of a single van model dominating the fleet market are over, and dealers who fail to adapt will be left behind

What it means for the order bank

Dealers who have been relying on a single model to meet the needs of their fleet customers will need to rethink their ordering strategy to stay competitive

The launch of three new vans in 2026 will give fleet buyers more options than ever before, and dealers will need to be prepared to offer a range of choices to meet their needs

Impact on pricing and margin

With more options available, fleet buyers will have greater negotiating power, which could put pressure on dealers to reduce their margins

Dealers will need to be prepared to defend their pricing and margin strategies in the face of increased competition

Taking action

One decisive action a dealer could take this week is to review their current fleet sales strategy and identify areas where they can offer more options and flexibility to their customers

By doing so, dealers can stay ahead of the competition and maintain their market share in a rapidly changing fleet market
