RAC has acquired vehicle diagnostics company Nebula System for an undisclosed sum.
The BusinessCar Award-winning telematics company said the new venture would allow the company to give fleet operators more insight into the health and maintenance of their vehicles.
Nebula will be integrated into the telematics arm of the business.
The breakdown and telematics company – which claims its telematics platform has an accuracy rating of 92% – said the buyout of the diagnostics company would move the firm “from a reactive to a proactive and predictive breakdown service.”
“This is a deal that will give our telematics systems much greater capability and will really position the RAC as leaders in vehicle status data,” said RAC Telematics managing director, Nick Walker. “For a fleet manager or business owner, the RAC Telematics system will provide complete clarity into the health and behaviour of their vehicles which means they can be proactive about dealing with issues before they develop into the kind of problems that could take a vehicle off the road.”
