An auto rental, rent-an-auto or auto hire agency is a company that rents automobiles for short periods of time (ranging from a few hours to a few weeks) for a fee. It is an elaborate form of a rental shop, organized in numerous local branches, primarily located near airports or busy city areas and often complemented by a website allowing online reservations. There are also third party websites (such as online travel agencies) which compare quotes from the major auto rental agencies. auto rental agencies primarily serve people who have a auto that is temporarily out of reach or out of service, for example travelers who are out of town or owners of damaged or destroyed vehicles who are awaiting repair or insurance compensation. Because of the variety of sizes of their vehicles, auto rental agencies may also serve the self-moving industry needs, by renting vans or trucks.

Auto rentals are subject to many conditions which vary from one brand to another. The vehicle must be returned in a good condition and must not exceed a maximum driven distance, otherwise extra fees may be incurred. Additionally, some companies set a minimum age for the vehicle driver, which in some cases is as high as 25, even in countries where the minimum legal age to hold a driver's license is much lower. Recent conditions have utilized GPS technology to limit maximum speeds or driving to specific regions. Renewable fuel vehicles are available in certain areas.

The vast majority of auto rental companies require the use of a Credit card to make it easier for them to trace a person after they have stolen a auto, or to charge additional fees at will if a defect is later found with the auto. There are two major types of auto hire companies. The first group of companies own their own autos (known as a fleet) and may have agreements with auto manufacturers to provide all the autos for that fleet. An example of this type of company would be Alamo or Europacar. The other type of auto hire company operate on a broker model and have commercial agreements with auto hire companies to provide access to their fleets of autos. To allow for a uniform classification and easy comparison of auto rental prices, the Association of auto Rental Industry Systems and Standards has developed the ACRISS_auto_Classification_Code coding system. This describes the size, dour count, gearbox type (manual/automatic) and whether the auto is air-conditioned in a short code.

Green Vehicle

A green vehicle is a vehicle that is considered to be more "environmentally friendly" than traditional all-petroleum internal combustion engine vehicles. This is accomplished by having a low dust to dust energy cost. It provides a way of sustainable transport. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is promoting the marketing of greener cars via the Smart Way program. The Smart Way and Smart Way Elite designation mean that a vehicle is a better environmental performer relative to other vehicles. This US EPA designation is arrived at by taking into account a vehicle's Air Pollution Score and Greenhouse Gas Score. Higher Air Pollution Scores indicate vehicles that emit lower amounts of pollutants that cause smog relative to other vehicles. Higher Greenhouse Gas Scores indicate vehicles that emit lower amounts of carbon dioxide and have improved fuel economy relative to other vehicles. To earn the Smart Way designation, a vehicle must earn at least a 6 on the Air Pollution Score and at least a 6 on the Greenhouse Gas Score, but have a combined score of at least 13. Smart Way Elite is given to those vehicles that score 9 or better on both the Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollution Scores.
