Total Cost of Ownership Simulator

And calculating it has traditionally been quite a complex operation. But not anymore. Our experts have created the Athlon TCO Simulator.

Athlon TCO Simulator

The TCO puzzle

There is an unwieldy number of questions you need to ask if you want to calculate your Total Cost of Ownership. Do you take fuel consumption into account? What tax benefits do you qualify for? Why are CO2 emissions important?

Making TCO easy

Athlon has developed a TCO Simulator that takes every factor into account. Vehicle make and model, expected mileage, depreciation, fleet size, maintenance, insurance costs plus fuel and/or energy consumption, among others. This makes it easy to compare makes and models, different technologies, your contract duration and how your expected mileage influences costs.

The results are even country specific. The TCO Simulator takes local legislation and regulations into account. Among other factors, it works with benefits in kind, incentives, company-car taxes, fiscal advantages and VAT. And it does it all in next to no time. Currently available in Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands and the UK.

Going electric?

Is an electric fleet too expensive? The price tag on a hybrid or electric vehicle is higher than the one on an equivalent vehicle running on petrol or diesel. However, the tax benefits, reduced fuel costs, lower maintenance costs and slow depreciation are all advantages that drive your TCO down. Once you’ve factored in the benefits you receive for installing charging points, you might benefit from adding electric vehicles to your fleet.
