Available exclusively at select locations to Hertz customers in Italy, the Hertz Selezione Italia brings together the best of “Made in Italy” iconic cars and luxury – with a high-end personalized welcome service, forming part of the company’s premium offer.

The Selezione Italia now includes the following main models:

  • Abarth 595 Competizione e Turismo

  • Abarth 124 Spider

  • Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio

  • Alfa Romeo Stelvio

  • Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce

  • Alfa Romeo 4C

  • Fiat 500 Cabrio

  • Maserati Ghibli

  • Maserati Levante and Maserati Levante Hertz Limited Edition.

The Selezione Italia forms part of Hertz’s commitment to offer customers a range of premium fleet options and luxury, tailored experiences across its markets. Earlier this year Hertz launched its British Collection in the U.K. – a premium customer service rental offer, featuring a suite of best-of-British services and products, with models including the Land Rover Discovery Sport and the Jaguar F Pace, E Pace, XE, and XF.

Customers choosing Selezione Italia benefit from a make-and-model guarantee – meaning that the car booked is the one they drive away with – combined with exclusive service and dedicated staff to offer a high-end rental experience.
