What are the motivations behind the rebrand?
"Hertz is undertaking a multi-year project to transform the car rental experience. We started with customers and research to understand what it was they were looking for from a premium car rental experience.
"The research also highlighted how the majority of car rental brands did not distinguish themselves by having a clear and ownable platform – there was a lot of similarity and little differentiation.
"Hertz’s global rebrand has been designed to reflect the accelerated pace of modern life together with the heightened demands of today’s rental customer."
How will it help to improve the customer experience?
"Our goal is to ensure we are consistently the best at delivering a faster, easier and more rewarding experience to every individual that we interact with – whether it is the renting customer themselves, the family and friends travelling with them, or a commercial partner.
"Taking out the old traditional counters where customers had to queue up, and replacing the counters with a bright, modern, tech-enabled space vastly improves the experience.
"As the program continues to rollout, our staff will be issued with the new uniforms and also receive new training. We have introduced new lines to our fleet, and new processes to meet the highest standards of cleanliness and safety. We are simplifying the presentation of our contracts and improving the mobile experience."
Are there plans to roll out this rebrand beyond stores?
