A Motor Show is the opportunity to meet partners and sign agreements. Thus in Geneva 2010, Europcar has signed with Renault the pre-order of its first 500 electric vehicles available for rental.

 

It follows a Memorandum of Understanding signed at Frankfurt motor show in September 2009.  Since 2011, Renault will supply Europcar, who will offer vehicles for short-term rent in most major European cities: Fluence Z.E. and Kangoo Z.E., followed in 2012 by the future electric vehicle based on Zoe Z.E. Concept in 2012. A "win-win" agreement, as Europcar will expand its "eco-friendly" fleet, while for Renault, "the leverage created by short-term rental will help to drive adoption of electric vehicles by individual customers" declared Uwe Hochgeschurtz, Senior Vice president, Renault’s Corporate Sales Division.
