Toyota Motor North America has selected TSD Mobility Solutions as an approved partner for the Toyota Rent A Car program.
With over 20 years of history and 650 Toyota dealers already successfully using TSD, the decision to formalize the partnership allows dealers to take full advantage of TSD’s rental and reservation platform.
“We are delighted to have TSD — our valued technology partner — working alongside our team to shape our future mobility offerings," Paul Rohovsky, dealer fleet manager of Toyota Motor North America, said in a statement. "For the past two decades, TSD has provided their technology and industry experience to Toyota and our dealers. They’ve been a key partner for TMNA as we’ve launched in vehicle telematics and direct customer mobile app reservations over the past year. As an approved vendor, TSD will continue to deliver mobile technology, improve customer satisfaction, and help our dealers grow their business.”
TSD offers the only full end-to-end mobility solution in the marketplace giving dealers the option to explore new mobility opportunities such as loaner vehicles, rental cars, extended test drives, car share initiatives, subscription options, and shared fleets on a single platform.
Additional in-demand features within TSD’s platform include the ability to provide customers with a 100% contactless experience. E-signatures and pickup/delivery capabilities have given Toyota locations a lifeline to their customers during the uncertainty of the pandemic.
Throughout 2020, TSD continued to develop innovative solutions despite the raging pandemic. From contactless options to direct connect telematics and automated tolling, TSD remains dedicated to building the best fleet management technology.
TSD’s recent device-free, telematics integration is currently being rolled out across the country. Dealers can track the real-time location of their rental units, set up geo-fence notifications, and monitor mileage as well as fuel costs with incredible precision. Toyota locations have an added option to automate toll fee violations.
Since 2001, TSD has been an integral solution for Toyota. TSD was the first to establish a web-based dealer loaner and rental fleet management system in the US, not only to help dealers manage their fleets, but also to provide corporate visibility and control to the OEM.
