Enterprise Rent-A-Car offers customers the opportunity to benefit the environment. By opting to pay $1.25 per rental, customers can fund certified offset projects that will work to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. The foundation will match customer contributions dollar-for-dollar up to a total of $1 million. For every 100,000 customers who choose to take part in this program, this effort will offset more than 30 million pounds — or 13,500 metric tons — of CO2.
Of the 927,000 rental car fleet, 25% of vehicles have an estimated 32 MPG and 46% of the entire rental is US EPA certified SmartWay vehicles. Enterprise has a total of 7,000 Hybrids and 59,5000 FlexFuel vehicles. In February 2009, Enterprise added 5,000 Hybrids to their 80 ’Hybrid Branches’ locations nationwide, including 4 locations in Hawaii! These branches offer a variety of hybrid SUVs, trucks, and sedans.
This is a great opportunity for customers who do not own a hybrid. By renting and donating $1.25 per rental, customers are donating to a worthy cause by helping the environment while receiving a quality service and experience.
