You’ll find everything you need to know about company car drivers in the German market in our User Chooser Study 2023. In this new edition of the study, we surveyed 700 company car drivers about their attitudes, purchase decision process, acceptance of new brands and much more. You will also get a detailed characterisation of the different user chooser types. What makes the drivers who make almost half of all vehicle decisions in the fleet market tick?
“48% of cars in the relevant fleet market in Germany are selected by user choosers.”
The study on company car drivers in the German market provides you with a comprehensive insight into the most important selection criteria for a company car. The study also maps the entire ordering process: Where are the vehicles configured? How is the order placed? In addition to the decision-making process, we also shed light on the employer’s specifications regarding drive type and CO2. Find out how many company car drivers are given a predetermined drive type and how the choice turns out when they are allowed to decide freely.
Company car drivers are known to be much more brand loyal than private individuals. However, current changes such as the switch to electric vehicles and vehicle availability are causing more movement in the market. In addition, new players such as the Chinese are fighting for market share. Despite the low number of registrations, are they already known to users? In our study you will also find out whether company car drivers consider these brands as serious competitors when choosing a vehicle.
The User Chooser Study 2023 was originally published in German. However, it is also available in English on request. Please contact us for further details.
