ESTERO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hertz Car Sales today announced the nationwide expansion of its popular Hertz Rent2Buy® program to more than 100 cities. As consumers increasingly embrace the 'try before you buy' approach—from furniture to fashion—Hertz Car Sales is meeting the moment by redefining the traditional test drive. The Rent2Buy program offers thousands of well-maintained, competitively priced used vehicles—including newly added 2025 models—for an extended test drive.
Rent2Buy eliminates the pressure and guesswork of traditional car shopping by allowing customers to test drive vehicles at a low daily rate for up to three days before purchasing. In fact, 80% of those who rent through the program choose to buy the vehicle. Customers can browse online, reserve a vehicle, and take it home for a 3-day test rental. The low daily rental fee is completely waived if they decide to buy.
'Buying a car is one of life's biggest decisions, and we believe customers deserve more than a spin around the block to make it,' said Jeff Adams, Executive Vice President of Hertz Car Sales. 'Rent2Buy reflects how we're rethinking every part of the customer experience at Hertz: giving people the time, tools, and transparency to feel confident in their choices. Whether it's testing how a car fits into your daily life or simply making sure it feels right, Rent2Buy puts the power back in the customer's hands, with no pressure and no surprises.'
How Rent2Buy Works:
Choose your car – Browse a wide selection of vehicles online, including newly added 2025 models.
Test it for 3 days – Take a complimentary 2-hour test drive or rent the car for up to 3 days at a special low rate.
Make it yours – Love the car? Buy it and Hertz will waive the rental charges. In many states, you can even complete the purchase from home.
Peace of Mind Comes Standard
Every Rent2Buy vehicle is backed by a 12-month/12,000-mile limited powertrain warranty (whichever comes first), 24-hour roadside assistance, travel breakdown protection, and a 7-day/250-mile buy-back guarantee (whichever comes first)*.
Because Rent2Buy vehicles are still part of Hertz's active rental fleet, buyers get early access to newer, lower-mileage cars, often priced below Kelley Blue Book Suggested Retail Value.
Whether you're looking for a reliable commuter car, a family SUV, or a luxury ride, Hertz Car Sales makes it easy to find the right fit without the pressure.
