UFODrive, an app-based EV rental company, announced a new partnership with CarTrawler, a global B2B provider of car rental and mobility solutions to the travel industry. CarTrawler’s end-to-end technology platform is already used by United Airlines, American Express, easyJet, Alaska Airlines, SWISS, Hotels.com and Emirates.
From more than 30 locations in Europe and the United States, customers will be able to bypass lines, forget keys, and drive away in minutes.
Aidan McClean, CEO and co-founder of UFODrive, commented: “As UFODrive continues its global expansion, our partnership with CarTrawler allows us to offer the most sustainable and most loved rental product to more travellers. The CarTrawler team have been exceptional partners. Their technology is great and when we realised they share the same vision for electrifying rental, they immediately became our first marketplace partner.”
CarTrawler’s focus on sustainability further strengthens this partnership and the green content it offers to partners. UFODrive’s partnership will allow those customers to upgrade their rental experience and feel the difference renting an EV.
Ronan Smyth, director of supply at CarTrawler, added: “We’re delighted to partner with UFODrive to supply their all-electric fleet to our partners’ customers. Not only does this continue to deliver on CarTrawler’s ongoing sustainability goals and enhance our green content offering, but it also drives further innovation for our customers through their ‘straight to car’ technology, meaning customers can avoid queueing at a desk through using their phone to unlock the car.”
