Cut Fuel Costs and Boost Profit Margins: The Energie Fuel Card Advantage for Auto Shops and Dealers

With payroll, inventory, shop supplies, utilities, insurance, and more, running an auto shop or dealership isn’t cheap and fuel can feel like an overlooked expense. The cost of fueling your loaner vehicles, parts runners, and delivery trucks add up quickly and maintaining your bottom line can become difficult very quickly. If you’re still paying for retail prices at the pump, you’re leaving money on the table every single day.

 

The good news is that that doesn’t have to be the case anymore, with the Energie Fuel card.

 

Why Fuel Savings Matter for Auto Shops and Dealers

Most auto businesses don’t realize how much they spend on fuel each month, with:

• Loaner and courtesy vehicles needing to be fueled daily or weekly
• Parts runners constantly on the road
• Dealership shuttle services transport customers all day
• Test drives and vehicle deliveries with your available inventory

 

When you multiply this across the vehicles and drivers, the numbers start to stack up fast while fuel prices change daily. What you paid last month won’t be what you pay tomorrow and this unpredictability makes it hard to forecast costs or protect your bottom line.

 

The Problem with Traditional Fuel Buying

Without a plan in place, auto shops and dealers usually rely on retail gas stations, which means:

• No control over fluctuating pump prices.
• No way to monitor driver spending in real-time.
• No access to wholesale or bulk savings.
• Increased risk of unauthorized purchases.

The Energie Fuel card can help you gain control over these areas and more. Specifically designed for businesses with vehicles on the road daily, this card gives auto shops and dealerships access to fuel savings typically enjoyed by larger fleets.
