“With Fleetcare, fleet owners have now the opportunity to reduce their total cost of ownership thanks to a complete package from a single mobility partner,” said Bridgestone.

“From regional to last mile delivery, the Bridgestone Duravis Van minimises downtime and contributes to reducing total cost of ownership, making it the ideal tyre for professionals who want to optimise tyre management, while prioritising safety and reliability.”
