How do you get up-to-date mileage for all EVs in your fleet?

Instantly having the current mileage of all vehicles, fuel and EV, in your fleet—that is the major advantage of fleet management with Echoes. For fleet managers in all sectors, and thanks to flexible addition and removal, also perfect for rental companies and leasing companies. Focus on maintenance and contracts and leave the era of fuel cards, manually submitting odometer readings, abuse, and major discrepancies behind you.

With fuel cars, you regularly received a new mileage reading via the fuel card. With electric vehicles, that fixed registration moment largely disappears. EVs are charged at home, at the office, and on the road. While the number of kilowatt-hours is usually recorded, the mileage is not automatically recorded. As a result, as a fleet manager, you quickly become dependent on manual entry, separate spreadsheets, or periodic requests to drivers. That takes time. And by the time all readings are received, the overview is often already outdated.

Mileage is not only useful for administration. It is important management information for your fleet. <br /
With current readings, you can, among other things:

• schedule maintenance in a timely manner
• monitor contract mileage
• detect impending excess mileage earlier
• calculate energy and maintenance costs per kilometer
• see which vehicles are used frequently or infrequently
• better predict replacements and outflows

Without current mileage readings, you rely on assumptions. You might then only discover discrepancies during a maintenance service, a contract settlement, or when the vehicle is returned.

For leasing companies, mileage figures help determine contract value, maintenance costs, and expected residual value. By monitoring mileage trends over the contract term, deviations can be identified earlier and contracts adjusted in a timely manner.

At rental companies, vehicles can cover many kilometers in a short period. Current mileage figures help to schedule maintenance between reservations, monitor rental mileage, and remove vehicles from the fleet at the right time. They also help prevent conflicts with renters regarding actual mileage.

Echoes connects directly to the systems of connected car manufacturers. The available OEM data is standardized so that data from different brands can be viewed in a single environment.

A compatibility check is performed in advance.



This clarifies:

• which vehicles can be connected
• which data is available per vehicle
• whether additional activation or authorization is required

Recent vehicles from almost all major car brands can be connected, provided the model and year are supported. Furthermore, coverage is being expanded. Hyundai was recently added to the Echoes platform, and BYD and Polestar will join shortly.

With Echoes, you automatically gain insight into the available mileage of connected vehicles. This allows you to better manage maintenance, contracts, costs, and vehicle usage, without constantly asking drivers for a new odometer reading.
