Echoes launches its digital logbook: a key tool for reducing the fringe benefit associated with company vehicles
La Crau, July 2, 2025 — Echoes, the European leader in fleet management and connected vehicle data, today unveiled its newdigital logbook, a solution designed companies that provide company vehicles to their employees.
This launch comes amid a challenging regulatory environment. The reform of benefits in kind, which took effect on February 1, 2025, significantly increases the cost of the flat-rate calculation, encouraging companies and employees to opt for actual expense reporting. However, until now, there has been no simple, reliable solution for easily tracking an employee’s personal and business trips.
A tool designed to make life easier for businesses and drivers
The Logbook Vehicle Benefit in Kind fromEchoes allows drivers to log each trip with a single click via the mobile app. The company thus receives traceable and actionable data to calculate the actual value-in-kind benefit. Based on manufacturer data, the tool requires no device installation, no complicated setup, and guarantees immediate compatibility with over 90% of recent vehicles.
Substantial savings are on the horizon
- More than Over €2,000 saved per year per vehicle for the employer on payroll taxes, depending on the vehicle and its use.
- Over €1,500 in payroll expenses and income tax saved for employees.
- On average, employees use their vehicles for personal purposes only 20% of the time.
An innovation 100% made in France, led by a European leader
Echoes now connects more than 700,000 vehicles in Europe, thanks to its partnerships with leading automakers. This new jdigital digital logbook is designed to simplify operations, ensure compliance, and optimize costs for businesses.
The feature is now available to all CarFleet customers and can be accessed via the app Vehicle Benefit-in-Kindapp.
