Industry Overview and Challenges
The rental car industry is a vital component of the broader transportation sector, serving both leisure and business travellers. The industry provides customers with the ability to rent cars on a short-term basis, typically for a few days or weeks at a time. This industry has experienced significant growth in recent years, largely driven by a combination of increasing demand for rental cars, the growth of international tourism, and the emergence of new market players.
However, the rental car industry also faces significant challenges such as keeping a regular track of vehicle health, planned maintenance and driving incidents. Low cost OBD devices are a perfect solution in keeing a track of operator's fleet while not compromising the privacy of valued customers.
