Record Q3 results for LeasePlan and SIXT
One of the world’s largest CaaS (Car-as-a-Service) providers LeasePlan released its Q3 financial results this week and so did international mobility services provider SIXT.
Let's start with LeasePlan: Tex Gunning CEO commented: “The fast-growing car subscription market has once again proven its ability to deliver superior and sustainable value creation for our customers, our people and our shareholders, with LeasePlan delivering a net result of €472 million and a return on equity of over 25%.
Our fleet grew strongly as customers continued to make the switch to hassle-free car subscriptions. The global
transition to net zero is also a key growth driver as we help customers worldwide eliminate emissions from their
fleets. Today 25% of the new cars we deliver are electric, well ahead of market rates. We could cut emissions faster if governments invested in the charging infrastructure we need to get everyone into an EV.”
