Car rental, or hire a car facility, refers to the process of renting a car for a short duration. These car rental services are provided by agencies that purchase several fleet vehicles and rent them to customers for a fee. Nowadays, individuals prefer to hire a car on rent as it is a more cost-effective alternative than owning a vehicle and offers freedom of movement and low-cost traveling. Some rental cars are also equipped with entertainment systems, global positioning systems (GPS), and Wi-Fi networks.
Global Car Rental Market Trends:
The global car rental market is primarily driven by the rapid growth of the information technology (IT) sector. With the rising penetration of smartphones, renting a car through online platforms has become the most preferred choice. Besides this, increased travel and tourism activities have encouraged individuals to opt for car rental services, such as taxis and carpooling, for improved mobility and cost-effective traveling. The high usage rate of car rental services by daily commuters and office goers is also providing a positive outlook to the market. Besides this, governments of various countries are emphasizing on minimizing their vehicular emissions. Consequently, car rental services have emerged as one of the most economical modes of transportation.
