On October 22 and 23, more than a thousand decision-makers, experts, and partners from across the European fleet and mobility market gathered in Luxembourg for Fleet Europe Days 2025. The combination of conferences, the Fleet Europe Village, and the Remarketing Village provided exactly what our industry needs today: sharing knowledge, comparing cases, and, above all, finding practical ways to collaborate faster, smarter, and more sustainably.
The event took place at LuxExpo The Box in Kirchberg and also included the prestigious Fleet Europe & Remarketing Awards.
TransConnect at the Remarketing Village
TransConnect joined the event with a stand in the Remarketing Village. Over two inspiring days, we met with existing customers, transport and remarketing partners, and many new contacts from across Europe to discuss more efficient logistics, cross-border remarketing, and seamless workflows between clients and transport networks.
These discussions, combined with the conference program, revealed five clear takeaways for 2026 and beyond.
1) Efficiency leads: automation from workflow to auction
One of the most discussed themes was the automation of the remarketing chain—from fleet workflow to sales platform. A joint session with Alphabet and BCA Europe demonstrated how integration with multi-country auction platforms leads to faster turnaround times and fewer manual actions.
For fleet owners and remarketing partners, this reduces “time-to-cash” while improving traceability and compliance. For TransConnect, it confirms our strategic decision to standardize order and status exchange through API-driven integration.
“You could feel how strongly the technological acceleration is taking hold. We talked to various remarketing platforms and long-standing partners about new integrations. The barrier to sharing data is falling, while the willingness to connect processes is rising.” ~ Jochen Witty, Country Manager Germany
2) AI: from hype to hygiene in remarketing
During the remarketing sessions, Artificial Intelligence was no longer discussed as an experiment, but as an essential productivity driver—used for smarter supply-demand matching, condition grading, and dynamic pricing.
The organizers explicitly emphasized “the impact of AI” as one of the core topics, alongside EV remarketing and digital cross-border sales. The conclusion: companies optimizing their remarketing operations can already use AI today to route vehicle batches more intelligently, enrich photos and descriptions, and prioritize sales channels per market.
3) EV remarketing demands European scale and data transparency
The residual value dynamics of electric vehicles remain a major talking point. Sessions and hallway conversations highlighted that European scale and transparent vehicle data are crucial to move EVs efficiently and profitably through the value chain—from end-of-lease to the final buyer.
Digital and cross-border remarketing channels were repeatedly cited as key growth drivers, widening reach and helping to balance price differences between markets. For logistics, that translates into flexible, cross-border transport capacity and real-time visibility of available volumes.
“What stood out to me was how naturally the international character of our industry was discussed. Customers and new contacts are looking for partners who deliver the same quality across multiple countries. With our European subsidiaries, we can keep that promise—one brand, one way of working, across borders.” ~ Aurélien Rouxel, Country Manager France
4) One central meeting space accelerates partnerships
New this year: the Fleet Europe Village and Remarketing Village were combined into a single open space accessible throughout both days. It may sound like a logistical choice, but the effect was strategic—suppliers, fleet owners, and remarketing specialists literally moved through each other’s ecosystems.
For TransConnect, that meant discussions about remarketing could seamlessly evolve into transport solutions (and vice versa), including price/capacity agreements and IT integrations.
“Two very full days, but above all, highly valuable discussions with Belgian customers and industry peers. The focus was on what’s already working—smarter workflows and faster, more transparent delivery. You could really feel the shared drive to take the next step together.” ~ Sam Vander Veken, Key Account Manager Belgium
5) A growing and increasingly professional community
Fleet Europe Days has become the European hub for fleet and remarketing, attracting decision-makers from more than 35 countries. The mix of education (via IFMI and the Global Fleet Managers Club), the remarketing program, and the awards ceremony reflects a mature, forward-looking sector—one committed to learning, benchmarking, and excellence.
For TransConnect customers, that’s good news: a larger and more professional community brings greater transparency, higher standards, and more reliable services.
What this means for TransConnect customers
Faster turnaround times through integrations with remarketing and auction platforms—orders and status updates flow automatically, without the endless emails and spreadsheets.
Smarter vehicle allocation via data- and AI-assisted planning: better matching between loading capacity, delivery locations, and auction data.
Cross-border remarketing: our pan-European coverage aligns perfectly with the trend toward international resale. We can switch quickly between countries and hubs, making our platform more relevant than ever.
EV expertise in practice: specific charging schedules, range planning, and temperature management are becoming standard in our operational agreements—matching the EV remarketing focus of this year’s program.
Measurable quality: as the Fleet Europe community grows, so does the focus on benchmarking. That’s why we report back on key KPIs such as lead-to-load time, delivery accuracy, and CO₂ savings.
A sincere thank-you to everyone who joined “the Fleet”
Our team met many familiar faces and plenty of new ones at the stand in the Remarketing Village. Across all conversations, one message was clear: clients expect partners who connect processes, not just drive trucks.
That’s exactly where TransConnect positions itself—as Europe’s largest car transport platform, offering international coverage, operational reliability, and an open, API-driven approach.
A heartfelt thank-you to the organizers and to everyone who shared their insights. See you at the next edition!
