Image
Last Updated on October 27, 2022 by Michael We always recommend that you sign up for car rental rewards programs because of the benefits that come with membership. The vast majority of the time, these programs deliver benefits exactly as promised. But occasionally, there’s a glitch and your rental car loyalty program lets you down. Here’s what to do to turn the situation around. Ask AutoSlash for a Quote on a Cheap Car Rental Let’s face it: We join frequent renter programs because we like the benefits. We like accruing points for upgrades. We like great service. And we like bypassing the rental car counter and getting in and out of the rental car locations quickly and without drama. When we rent at Hertz or National, we expect the only interactions we will have with staff will be at the security gate, thanks to our Hertz Gold Plus Rewards and National Emerald Club accounts. We’re willing to pay a slight premium for the ability to walk straight to the lot, make a choice of

Do you need car rental insurance? Here’s a handy cheat sheet to help you take some of the stress out of renting a car. Know If You Already Have Coverage First, figure out about car rental insurance is whether you already have coverage.

The expectation is that by 2035 at least 60% of global vehicle sales will correspond to the electric car category; find out how to rent yours with Rentcars in an easy, practical and economical way Electric cars are a market trend not only because of the environmental aspect and the reduction of pollutant emissions, but also because of the savings these vehicles offer when it comes to fueling.

Ford even plans to produce more than 2 million electric vehicles annually by 2026 – which represents a third of the total production volume. In the UK, starting in 2030, automakers will only be allowed to sell electric cars. In Europe, in general, the deadline is a little longer, but not qui

Is It Much better to Bring or Rent a Child Seat for Your Rental Automobile?

Image
Last Updated on September 30, 2022 by Michael Planning a family road trip? You might be wondering if it is better to bring or rent a car seat. Rental car companies have plenty of car seats on hand—infant, toddler and booster. But they come at a steep cost. Happily, there are several ways to get a car seat for free if you plan ahead. Renting a Car Seat From a Rental Car Company The first thing you might consider when weighing whether to bring or rent a car seat is money. If you rent a car seat from the rental car company, be prepared to pay through the nose. Rental car companies charge $10-$15 per day, per seat, plus tax. These fees can add up quickly, especially if you have more than one child, and don’t forget that there’s tax on top of that as well. Ask AutoSlash for a Quote on a Cheap Car Rental Thankfully, most companies have a maximum charge per rental for each seat, with the Enterprise, National, and Alamo coming in lowest at $66 per rental, Avis and Budget at $7
