AUDI is the number one brand for small business users.
And the Audi A4 2.0 TDI is the key car chosen by small businesses, according to CompareContractHire.com.
The model was the most ordered car over the past two months said the online contract hire comparison site.
Three premium car makers feature in the top five. And all five favourites are diesel.
Second was BMW and its 320d, while Mazda’s 6 makes a surprising appearance at number three.
VW’s Golf comes in at number four and Volvo’s V50 is at number five. All five cars feature 2.0-litre diesel engines.
“Not surprisingly the lack of a structured business car policy means companies have a free choice and tend to opt for a mix of the three Ps – Prestige, Practicality, and Price when sourcing a car for themselves or their staff,” commented Robert Wastell, managing director, CompareContractHire.com.
“Small businesses obviously want something that gives them status, but the popularity of diesel shows that they obviously have costs in mind when choosing a company car.”
