Telegraph Media Group launches Car Manager, provided by MotorEasy

New free service helps Telegraph readers manage, maintain and protect their cars, all in one place

Telegraph Media Group has teamed up with MotorEasy, Intelligent Motoring’s flagship vehicle ownership and management brand, to launch Car Manager. The new service is designed to make owning a car simpler, more convenient and potentially less expensive for the brand’s 27 million print and digital readers[1].

Launched on 7 September, the free-to-access service gives Telegraph readers a single place to manage, maintain and protect their cars, from reminders for MOTs and servicing to prompts for tax and insurance renewals. It also enables them to book servicing and repairs, store important documents and access exclusive member savings.

Car Manager is underpinned by MotorEasy’s vehicle ownership technology, customer support team and trusted network of more than 10,000 vetted workshops and garage partners. Readers also receive exclusive partner offers, including curated leasing deals from Select Car Leasing.
