Making Light Work of a Light Duty Buy

OK, we get it. You're occupied with work or searching for it. Keeping your customer base satisfied, staying on schedule, catering to supplier demands, and constantly navigating the maze of COVID-19 regulations is no small feat. If you’re involved in cross-border transportation, you’re likely familiar with the endless waits in border queues and the ever-evolving permit requirements. Long days, limited family time, lockdown restrictions, and the endless yearning for personal space. You have your eyes set on a new truck but dread the hassles associated with truck financing, especially if you’re considering No Deposit Truck Finance.

At Jade Truck Loans, we’ve been steering the truck finance sector for ages. We understand the challenges faced by business owners, drivers, and operators. Despite the cliché, we genuinely aim to assist, especially when it comes to Truck Refinancing or helping you navigate options like Commercial Van Chattel Mortgage.

We’re staying across the truck market, posting articles on different makes and models, updating regularly on government assistance packages and the finance scene and we’ve structured our finance broking service to save our customers time, hassle and money when buying a new truck.

Vehicle Selection: Light Duty Market

Based on industry sales figures to end of July 2020, the light duty has been the best-selling of all the truck category sectors. Commentators have put this down, at least in part, to demand for vehicles in general delivery and somewhat of a slow-down in work for heavy duty vehicles as a result of coronavirus. The surge in online shopping, keeping shelves stocked for panic-buying in the supermarkets, businesses having to pivot to making customer deliveries and supply pick-ups and an overall shift in consumer behaviour all seem to have contributed to demand for light commercial trucks and vans.

The Top Sellers

According to industry figures, the top selling brands in the light duty market in 2019 were, in order:-Isuzu, Hino, Fuso, IVECO, Mercedes-Benz, Fiat, Renault, Hyundai, Ford and Volkswagen. Comparing 2018 and 2019, overall sales were down across the market, especially in the leading brands. But the lower ranked sellers - Renault, Hyundai, Ford and Volkswagen – all saw a reasonable percentage increase in sales though it was from a relatively small sales base. Hopefully that gives you some ideas for your purchase, knowing what others are buying.

Many truck dealers are offering contactless purchasing to comply with COVID-19 requirements and assist buyers. Could be a great time-saver for you if you know exactly what you want and can ‘build’ your vehicle on the manufacturer’s website and simply place your order with your local dealer.

Jade Truck Loans provide DIY resources and fast quote and approvals services to assist with the finance side of your purchase.

Saving Time with Your Truck Purchase

While choosing, leverage our Truck Finance Calculator for rough repayment estimates on diverse trucks. It's a quick tool to compare potential repayments on different models, eliminating the need to get multiple quotes just for comparison.

But remember, the calculator offers only an estimate. It can, however, assist in understanding how Jade can tailor your truck loan, especially if you’re considering Commercial Heavy Vehicle & Truck Loans.

Considering the government stimulus measures might make your purchase even more appealing. Benefits like Instant Asset Write-Off might be available based on your location and industry.
