Sadly the National upgrade offer never goes up to Premium or Luxury classes where National has some nice offerings - Infinitis, Volvos, etc. The Hertz deal is decent and it was even better a few months ago. I've heard their fleet isn't what it used to be in some cases.

New Passat is now in the National fleet as full size, that's a new rental model for NA....Jettas have been around for a year or two I think.#393 of 740 . by fintail

I've heard that Avis will now carry the BMW 5er in its US fleet. That could be a nice unit to have for a road trip, assuming they don't limit mileage.#394 of 740 nice car, how do you turn it on? by steve_ HOST

"This past summer, Enterprise, the largest rental company, announced a major electric vehicle rollout. You can now rent everything from a Nissan Leaf to a Peugeot iOn. And Hertz expanded its electric car fleet in 2011 to include the Chevrolet Volt, the Smart ED and the Tesla Roadster.The American Car Rental Association, a trade group, expects more puzzled looks from customers as they rent these new vehicles. But its members have had some experience fielding the questions. "Let's face it," says Sharon Faulkner, the group's executive director. "It doesn't even have to be an electric car, or a specialty unit, for customers to be confused."

Not bad, but you'll get a moderately at best equipped Escape, most likely...although might get a lucky upgrade.

Leading rental car company in Europe is slowly invading, opens a branch in ATL...they sometimes have very good rates on highline cars. I'm going to Florida to get heatstroke in June, and have reserved a car through them.To POST a message, please
