How we’re driving innovation
At Nexus, we believe in never settling for “good enough.” This recognition is a reflection of our ongoing commitment to pushing boundaries and delivering smarter, scalable solutions for our customers. Some highlights from our award-winning innovations include:
Revolutionising HGV rental
With Nexus HGV, we transformed a manual, fragmented process into a fully digital, end-to-end solution that is free to use and designed for scale. By eliminating the trade-off between reach and reliability, we’re helping heavy fleet operators navigate rising regulatory and operational challenges with ease.
Embedding AI for Smarter Decisions
We’re reshaping vehicle allocation by integrating AI decision intelligence into our platform. Instead of focusing on price alone, our AI prioritises supplier responsiveness, service quality, and reliability. This results in faster bookings, higher customer satisfaction, and greater efficiency. Importantly, this technology empowers our people, enhancing service quality rather than replacing human expertise.
Supporting the transition to EV fleets
Our EV marketplace, built directly into our Iris® platform, makes the shift to electric fleets simpler and more strategic. With access to detailed specs on BEVs and PHEVs, a carbon calculator, and custom filters, businesses can confidently align their fleet choices with both operational needs and ESG goals, helping them cut emissions and support employee wellbeing.
Always looking ahead
Our success is made possible by our ongoing investment in people, systems, and product development. We know that customer needs and market challenges are constantly evolving, and our innovation roadmap evolves right alongside them.
At Nexus Rental, we live by our brand promise: ‘Never Stop.’
