And what do the different repair and maintenance costs mean when you consider the entire lifetime of a vehicle? With the procorp fleet procurement software, the differences in offers can be shown concretely when comparing two mid-range vehicles (BEV vs. diesel). This monthly amount has a noticeable impact on the TCO of the vehicles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/procorp.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/BEV-versus-Diesel.png\" alt=\"BEV vs Diesel\" class=\"wp-image-2994\" width=\"664\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/procorp.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/BEV-versus-Diesel.png 1021w, https:\/\/procorp.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/BEV-versus-Diesel-300x117.png 300w, https:\/\/procorp.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/BEV-versus-Diesel-768x300.png 768w, https:\/\/procorp.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/BEV-versus-Diesel-600x234.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless of the annual mileage, the repair and maintenance costs of an average diesel fleet vehicle are a good 3 to 4 times as much as those for an electric vehicle.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>This is how you can save!<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With our tender software <a href=\"https:\/\/procorp.ch\/en\/software-subscription-for-tenders\/\">procorp fleet procur<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/procorp.ch\/software-abo-fuer-ausschreibungen\/\">ement<\/a>, we can show you the cost differences between electric vehicles and combustion engines and what you should pay attention to in tenders and negotiations.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Another repair!
