Rome, 17 March 2021– A new recognition for Leasys, which also ranked first in the 2020 league table of long-term rental operators in Italy. The company, a Stellantis brand and a subsidiary of FCA Bank, has received for the third consecutive year the Product of the Year* award  in the car Service category with  Leasys Miles, the first long-term pay-per-use rental formula, ideal for those who use the car occasionally or mainly in cities with a low annual mileage.

The coveted award is in addition to those obtained in recent years for the Be Free and Noleggio Chiaro products, which were named Product of the Year 2019 and 2020, respectively, in the same category.

The product includes 24-hour roadside assistance, third-party liability (RCA) insurance and Leasys I-Care, the service that allows remote car monitoring (which can also be managed via the Leasys Umove app).
