In December 2006 the companies LHS Leasing- und Handelsgesellschaft mbH and DSL Fleetservices GmbH, both based in Stuttgart, were taken over. On January 1, 2009, Alphabet Fuhrparkmanagement GmbH and LHS Leasing- und Handelsgesellschaft mbH were merged. DSL Fleetservices GmbH has been operating under the new name Fleetlevel + since April 2009. The Alphabet subsidiary provided technical support and management in particular for fleets with commercial and special vehicles. In July 2013, Fleetlevel + and, accordingly, the fleet management business area were spun off from Alphabet and finally sold to ARI Investment Holding, LLC.

In 2011, Alphabet acquired ING Car Lease, a subsidiary of the ING Groep , for € 637 million , thereby expanding the leasing and fleet management business by 240,000 vehicles. The orange ribbon in the alphabet logo refers to the merger.
