How Do You Rent A Hybrid Car?
Some American car rental companies have established significant inventories of hybrid cars. Renting a hybrid automobile on your next trip can reduce carbon emissions. It will also give you the chance to try out a hybrid and see whether you would like to own one. Step 1 Select the most appealing hybrid cars and rank them before you contact the rental companies. Popular hybrid models include the Prius from Toyota, the Escape from Ford and the Insight from Honda, but other models debut frequently. You may not get your first choice, but having your own list allows you to set the agenda. Step 2 Research the availability of hybrid cars by telephone or via the Internet. Sometimes, major rental car company websites are a little slow to highlight hybrid car availability. Calling the toll-free numbers for companies such as Hertz (1-800-654-3131), National (1-800-328-4567) and Budget (1-800-527-0700) may be the most direct way to verify availability of a hybrid in your destination city.
