The Story

Founded in 2000 by Steven Newman in Auckland, EROAD started with a vision to transform road transport compliance through technology. They became the first company to get New Zealand Transport Agency approval for electronic Road User Charges, basically pioneering digital distance-based charging and paving the way for smarter fleet management.

The Numbers

  • 430+ employees across NZ, Australia, Manila & US

  • Serving 10,000+ customers with 255,000+ connected vehicles globally 

  • Organises Australasia's largest fleet management conference (1,400+ attendees at Fleet Day 2025)

  • From Auckland startup to global fleet tech powerhouse 

Plot Twist

People think they're just GPS tracking or eRUC, but their platform is like having a helpful little buddy in every passenger seat – AI dash cams, driver fatigue monitoring, cargo temperature alerts, driver leaderboards, fuel tax reporting, and even fleet emissions insights. It's basically mission control for your entire fleet.

The Good Stuff

Their pet-friendly office policy has become legendary among EROADers – nothing bonds a team quite like shared love of furry family members. Plus, Fleet Day isn't your run-of-the-mill conference – they combine car shows, exhibitions, test drives, entertaining stunts and iconic keynotes into one action-packed day promoting safer, more sustainable fleet management.

Got business vehicles that need an easier, better way to stay compliant? These legends have your fleet covered from compliance to sustainability.
