The AA has partnered with Wessex Fleet, a UK-based lease brokerage, to relaunch AA Lease, expanding its vehicle leasing options.
The collaboration will provide customers with a broad range of leasing products and services. Wessex Fleet was chosen for its access to all major lease funders and its well-established reputation within the industry.

Wessex Fleet cited The AA’s status as the UK’s largest and most trusted motoring brand as a key factor in the partnership. The AA’s integrated ecosystem of driving services — including Prestige, AA Insurance, DriveTech, Accident Assist, and AA Driving School — further enhances the partnership’s potential for growth.
Leasing is expected to become increasingly popular, particularly among younger drivers. Research by AA Lease found that nearly one in three (29%) of younger motorists already opt for monthly payments over traditional vehicle ownership.
Martin Smith, Head of AA Lease, comments: “Partnering with Wessex Fleet will give us a powerful platform to grow AA Lease and take it to the next level. Wessex Fleet’s access to a huge range of lease funders make them the perfect partner for AA lease and its customers.”
Tim McNally, Director of Wessex Fleet, comments: “We’ve been providing lease options to customers for more than 20 years, and we’re excited to help AA Lease with its relaunch.”
