Car Rental Services Industry Procurement Intelligence and Their Impact 2027

Posted by Manisha S on February 1st, 2022

The car rental industry has witnessed significant growth in the last ten years due to the increasing penetration of online rental car booking applications. The market is emerging as one of the key segments in the global transportation industry, as car rental services not only benefit customers and rental companies but also car manufacturers. Automotive manufacturers have started leasing cars to small rental companies who increase their fleet size without making large investments.

There has been a significant increase in global travel in the last few years. Global commuters are increasingly demanding familiar, reliable, and high-quality travel services during their travel. Some regional car rental operators are attempting to leverage this trend by expanding their brand and distribution platforms on a global level. The implementation of an integrated global car rental system is expected to enable these operators to manage their widespread business operations.
