Motor fleet insurance is a type of commercial insurance policy designed to cover multiple vehicles under a single contract.
It’s typically used by businesses that operate a fleet of vehicles, like delivery services, transportation companies, or large corporations with company cars.

Any business that owns two or more vehicles should have a motor fleet insurance policy.

The number of vehicles required for a motor fleet insurance policy varies among insurers. Some providers offer fleet coverage for businesses with as few as two vehicles, while others may set the threshold slightly higher.
With a motor fleet insurance policy, the vehicles are insured rather than the individual drivers, which gives flexibility over who can drive the vehicles. Drivers can be named on the policy if needed, for example, if they are younger than the driver age restriction for the vehicle.
Some insurers set minimum age requirements for drivers under motor fleet insurance policies. Typically, drivers must be at least 21 or 25-years-old to be automatically covered. If you employ younger drivers, they may be able to get cover as a named driver, depending on the vehicle.
Motor fleet insurance can be used to cover a wide range of business vehicles, including cars, vans, trucks, minibuses, and more specialist vehicles like farm vehicles and construction equipment.
Yes, many insurers allow you to assign varying levels of coverage to different vehicles within the same policy.
