According to foreign media reports, on December 12th local time, Enterprise Holdings, the world's largest car rental service provider, announced a partnership with General Motors (GM) to significantly increase the number of connected vehicles in its fleet by the end of 2019. Enterprise Holdings has started testing General Motors' connected platform this year, with the goal of adding over 100000 Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac connected vehicles to its fleet within the next 12 months.

This plan will simplify the customer experience for the Enterprise Holdings car rental brand. This is our first step towards a fully connected fleet, "said Christine Taylor, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Enterprise Holdings." We have always understood the value of integrated networks and will continue to leverage technological solutions to provide customers with a more relaxed and seamless car rental experience

Connected vehicles will accelerate the speed of customers renting and returning vehicles. For example, customers can automatically complete tasks such as checking fuel level, vehicle condition, and mileage readings. Vehicle telemetry technology allows customers to automatically obtain the above information when returning their vehicles, making the return process smoother.

In addition to providing a better future car rental experience, car rental customers can also utilize the embedded networking services in General Connected Cars to achieve numerous functions and services. These connected vehicles are equipped with the latest personalized experience technologies, including Apple's CarPlay, Android Auto, and OnStar. In addition, emergency services, crisis assistance, automatic collision response, remote unlocking/unlocking, and other functions can also be used to increase convenience and safety.
