Avis Budget Group has expanded its consumer car sales program to Missouri and Oklahoma. This program offers late-model Avis and Budget rental vehicles for purchase.
In collaboration with Innovative Funding Services, Avis Budget Group's consumer car sales program offers buyers a no-haggle, no-hassle process with a selection of late-model Avis and Budget rental vehicles for purchase.
Customers can shop online at www.avis.com or www.budget.com and schedule their "ultimate test drive" to drive a vehicle of their choice, according to Avis Budget. The ultimate test drives are free-of-charge for two hours or can be as long as three days for a nominal rental fee.
If the customer decides to purchase the vehicle, the base rental fee will be refunded after the purchase is completed, according to Avis Budget.
"We're excited to bring our popular consumer car sales program to Missouri and Oklahoma and offer residents the many benefits of purchasing a quality, well-maintained vehicle from us," said Joe Ferraro, president, Americas, Avis Budget Group.
The car sales program is also available in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Washington. It features more than 100 vehicle makes and models, ranging from BMW to Chrysler to Ford, General Motors, Nissan and Toyota.
