From left to right: Abu-Haris Shafi and Nikolei Kesting from BSM, and Andrew Humberstone, MD Fiat Group Automobiles UK, celebrate the announcement of a new partnership which will see Fiat providing BSM with 14,000 cars over the next four years.
BSM and Italian car giant Fiat have today announced their partnership which will see Fiat as the new fleet provider for BSM (the British School of Motoring), the UKĀs most popular driving school. Fiat will provide BSM with 14,000 cars over the next four years, with most of them set to be the award-winning Fiat 500 Ā Car of the Year 2008 Ā along with the popular Grande Punto model.
The fleet vehicle is the biggest depiction of the BSM brand, and the introduction of the stylish Fiat 500 design is intended to appeal to new learners. BSM will start to take delivery of the new fleet this summer and complete the exchange of all fleet by the end of the year.
BSM is the UKĀs leading driving school, with around 3,000 driving instructors teaching more than 130,000 learners to drive each year. BSM is one of the most recognised British brands with nearly 100 years of history and a market share of approximately 10 per cent. BSM is also one of the largest providers of instructor training and carry out driver training for companies as well as the public and governmental sectors. BSM has been teaching people to drive since 1910 and is fully committed to helping people become better safer drivers, not just training them to pass their test. The company taught the Queen to drive and helped design and implement the modern driving test. The agreement will make the Fiat 500 even more visible on BritainĀs roads Ā and help Fiat with its plan to target the 500 at the key young drivers market.
BSM is confident that the change of car will give new drivers a superior learning experience, with features including: manoeuvrability Ā the Fiat 500, with a length of just 3.5 metres and a turning circle of 9.2 metres, is easy to drive and offers exceptional manoeuvrability; safety Ā the Fiat 500 has more safety features than any other small car and achieved five stars in the tough Euro NCAP crash test programme; environment Ā the Fiat 500 engine meets the toughest Euro 5 exhaust emissions standards and has improved fuel efficiency when compared with BSMĀs previous fleet. The 500Ās 1.2-litre 69 bhp engines returns 55.4 mpg on the combined cycle and emits just 119 g/km CO2. The model is also available with eco:Drive which analyses driving styles and helps drivers use less fuel; and visibility Ā the Fiat 500 model also offers greater visibility than the previous fleet, with a smaller dashboard and larger wing mirrors.
The new partnership will include a special offer for learner drivers wishing to purchase a Fiat once they have passed their test. The car manufacturer is offering an exclusive Ā£500 discount on all new Fiat models to BSM learners, making the range even more accessible and economical for new drivers.
ĀWe believe very strongly that the car we use for our fleet is the strongest depiction of our brand so it was of the utmost importance for us to find a car that shares both the heritage of BSM and the brandĀs modern outlook and appeal,Ā says Abu Shafi, managing director, BSM. ĀWe feel that the partnership of BSM with the Fiat 500 has a great synergy and we are looking forward to introducing such an iconic fleet with an improved learning experience.Ā
ĀThis fantastic new agreement puts an award-winning car alongside the best-known driving school in the UK, and I am delighted we are involved in it,Ā says Andrew Humberstone, managing director, Fiat Group Automobiles UK. ĀThis puts us right where we want to be Ā in the High Streets of BritainĀs towns and cities, demonstrating to new motorists the delights of driving a new Fiat.Ā BSM previously partnered with Vauxhall who provided over 3,500 of their Corsa and Astra models to the company. The new deal will include the Fiat 500 and Grande Punto model for disabled learners.

13.10.2009 FIORINO AND DOBLĆ CARGO FOR LEADING UK ENERGY FIRM IN POWERFUL NEW FLEET DEAL
More than 350 new Fiat commercial vehicles are being delivered to a leading UK power supplier in a deal that highlights the vansĀ efficiency and low ownership costs. Scottish Southern Energy (SSE) will take 273 Fiat Fiorino 1.3 MultiJet SX and 79 Fiat DoblĆ² Cargo 1.3 MultiJet SX vans over the next three months for use by the firmĀs metering division.
The new vans are being made available from Fiat Professional, Fiat UKĀs commercial vehicle division, through a five-year, fully maintained contract hire deal funded by Lex Autolease, and have been specially prepared for this particular activity. All the vehicles will have a newly-designed bespoke racking system, while the Fiorinos come with passenger airbag, larger 15-inch wheels, Michelin energy saving tyres, parking sensors and panelled bulkheads. The DoblĆ² Cargos are equipped with panelled bulkheads and parking sensors as standard. A small number of the vans Ā for use in central London Ā will also feature FiatĀs Comfort Matic semi-automatic gearbox. And in addition to the solid blue colour, all vans will be half-wrapped in SSE logos.
ĀThe vehicles were chosen for their superior engine technology and adaptability,Ā says Colin Parnell,regional corporate sales manager, Fiat Group Fleet. ĀWe were able to offer excellent load space with side door access, class-leading CO2 figures and even an ECU speed limiter Ā set to 69mph Ā for duty of care. We are delighted to have won this deal.Ā
ĀThe Fiorinos portray a fresh new identity for SSE,Ā says Grahame Neagus, head of Lex Autolease specialist commercial vehicle unit. ĀAnd that, coupled with the vehiclesĀ comfort, practicality and functionality, made them an obvious choice for this contract. One objective was to lower CO2 levels across the SSE fleet and this deal with Fiat Professional will help to achieve that.Ā
The Fiat Fiorino range starts at Ā£8,905 plus VAT for the Cargo 1.4 8-valve Petrol 75 (from 119g/km CO2), while the DoblĆ² Cargo range (from 139g/km CO2) opens with the 1.4 MPI 8-valve Petrol at Ā£10,335 plus VAT.
