Audi launched its car rental service Audi On Demand in the United Kingdom, according to CNET.

The pilot program, which will allow users to rent an Audi model for as little as an hour or up to 28 days, started in Manchester and is expected to expand to five other U.K. cities later this year — Edinburgh, Glasgow, London, Birmingham, and Newscastle.

Users will be able to either pick up their rentals at the Manchester Audi Centre or have their rentals delivered within a 30-minute radius, according to the carsharing website.

The program includes a wide variety of cars and SUVs, including the A1, A3, S3, S5, Q3, and Q5 models — all ranging from 70 pounds ($90) to 190 pounds ($240) per day.

Audi On-Demand is currently available in China, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the U.S.
