Car rental giant, Hertz, has just launched ‘Connect by Hertz’, a service which offers car sharing in London, Paris and New York City. Hertz plans to add the service to additional cities in 2009.
The environmental benefits of car sharing are significant, and the three low-emissions cars available via Connect by Hertz, including the Mini Cooper, green the deal even further.
Customers pay an annual fee and an hourly rate to use the cars, which varies between cities. Insurance, roadside assistance, maintenance and cleaning are among the many benefits included.
