The start point for the best source of fleet information |
The BVRLA has launched an updated version of its Fair Wear and Tear Standard for cars.
The revised standard includes several changes regarding EVs, including the requirement for them to have a full charge at the point of collection.
Other updates give greater clarity on tyre and wheel condition, in-vehicle documentation, and the presence of charging cables where appropriate.
The updates are intended to reflect the latest technologies and driver habits, with input compiled from BVRLA members, auction houses, and common issues handled via the association's Alternative Dispute Resolution service.
BVRLA director of corporate affairs Toby Poston said: "Our Fair Wear and Tear Standard is the essential textbook and primer for anyone involved in vehicle returns. The new Standard for cars sets out in black and white what is expected of a driver from the moment they accept delivery of the vehicle.
"The industry-wide adoption of the BVRLA Standard gives drivers, fleet operators and vehicle providers consistency, meaning that any end-of-contract charges relating to vehicle condition are fair, transparent, and indisputable."
