Located in the MKE car rental center, the new branch offers a premium fleet comprised of standard and luxury coupes, sedans, and SUVs, giving customers a wide selection of vehicles. The airport takes in more than 2.6 million passengers per year.

“The city’s beautiful lakefront, rich cultural heritage, and strong economy driven by nearly 1.5 million residents and several Fortune 500 companies make Milwaukee an important Midwest hub for both business and leisure travelers,” said Tom Kennedy, president of SIXT North America, in a July 2 news release.

The new Milwaukee location joins a growing list of recent branch openings including Tucson International Airport, Kansas City International Airport, Kona International Airport, Salt Lake City International Airport, Downtown Philadelphia, Houston Royal Sonesta, Chicago Marriott Naperville, and Long Beach, Calif., among others.

It also follows the recent expansion of ride-hailing and chauffer services offered in North America through SIXT ride as part of SIXT’s previously announced partnership with Blacklane.

Over a decade, the U.S. has become the most important growth market for SIXT, which employs more than 2,000 team members. In addition, by launching operations in Canada in 2022, SIXT is tapping into another billion-dollar market that also offers potential for synergies with its U.S. operations.
