The event is supported by the Waikato Regional Council and takes place at Globox Event Centre, Claudelands, Hamilton on July 20.
More than 300 customers and industry professionals in the transport industry are expected to gather at this year’s event.
“Transport is a crucial part of our community and we need it to operate in a way that is both safe and sustainable. Fleet Day is where the industry gets together to discuss these issues,” EROAD New Zealand general manager Andrew Davies says.
Fleet Day is an opportunity for fleet managers and others in the industry to gain insight into challenges and solutions facing vehicle technology, health and safety and EV emissions sectors.

“Fleet Day is a truly unique event for the industry, bringing together organisations and industry leaders and showcasing innovative technologies.
“This year’s event includes a heavy focus on road safety and EV strategies, including the opportunity to see the largest number of commercial EV vehicles gathered in one place in New Zealand,” Davies says.
Industry-leading speakers will deliver informative presentations on the most relevant trends and topics, and talk about challenges and solutions the light and heavy vehicle sectors are facing.
