"We couldn't be more thrilled to celebrate the class of
2022," said Laura Smith, Hertz
Executive Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Customer
Experience. "Introducing younger customers to our brand is vital as
we create a new Hertz and become a leader in the future of mobility
and travel. This new loyalty offering for young renters, our
industry-leading investment in EVs, and the upcoming
digital enhancements we're making to further enable a fast and
seamless car rental experience are a few examples of how we're
appealing to Gen Z's values, unique needs and
preferences."
Perfectly timed to align with college graduations around the
country and ahead of the busy summer moving season, Hertz has also
expanded its U.S. rental fleet to include 12- and 16-foot box
trucks that are available for rent for business and personal use at
select Hertz neighborhood locations. Hertz continues to offer a
broad range of vehicles to support customers' diverse
transportation and mobility needs, including helping grads move on
to their next chapter whether that be relocating for their first
job, or transitioning to a new apartment or house.
The new, modern box trucks feature state-of-the-art safety
features and are easy to drive with automatic transmissions,
parking sensors and rearview cameras. Hertz also offers moving
supplies like dollies, hand trucks, tie-down straps and padlocks
that can be added to rentals at select locations. In addition to
box trucks, Hertz also has pickup trucks and cargo vans available
to rent at its Hertz neighborhood locations.
