#29 In EuropeThe Motor Vehicle Rental and Leasing industry has grown fairly quickly over the past decade, except in 2020, when COVID-19-related disruption weighed on demand. Car rental companies have updated and enhanced their online booking systems, allowing easier access for customers while saving money on labour costs. Apps and easy-to-use online booking services have boosted efficiency, though comparison sites have elevated price competition between rental providers. At the same time, leasing companies have reaped the rewards of shaky business confidence and low disposable incomes – though these both have the potential to cut into demand, they’ve aided the industry by encouraging businesses and consumers to opt for leasing over outright purchases.
