With numerous talks about how autonomous vehicles are going to transform the transportation industry, rental car companies are making sure they don’t lag behind.
It’s official! Rental car companies are the new entrants in the driveless car race.
Apple will lease six cars from Hertz Global Holdings to test its long-anticipated autonomous driving software. Apple CEO Tim Cook has called self-driving cars the “mother of all AI projects”. “We’re focusing on autonomous systems,” Cook told Bloomberg in an interview. This news has made a buzz in the market and has further given impetus to the drive-less technology.
Another project which has kept up with this trend is the agreement between Waymo, Google’s self-driving unit, and Avis. The two technology giants have partnered with rental car fleets, making the rental car companies a part of the autonomous vehicle industry.
Documents released by California Department of Motor Vehicles state that Apple would be leasing Lexus RX450h sport-utility vehicles from Hertz’s Donlen fleet-management unit. The rental car firm will service and store Waymo’s Chrysler Pacifica minivans in Phoenix, where Waymo is testing a ride-sharing service with volunteer members of the public.
