Avis Budget Group Inc. has expanded its consumer car sales program to an additional 11 U.S. states, bringing the program's availability to nearly 40 states across the country.

Now, residents of Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin can test-drive and purchase well-maintained, late-model vehicles at discounted prices from Avis Car Rental and Budget Car Rental.

Avis Budget Group's consumer car sales program offers buyers a no-haggle, no-hassle process and features a selection of late-model Avis and Budget rental vehicles for purchase, according to the company.

Customers can shop online at www.avis.com or www.budget.com and schedule their "ultimate test drive" with more than 100 vehicle makes and models available to drive. 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.

"Like our car rental customers, those who purchase our quality, well-maintained vehicles appreciate the stress-free experience we offer," said Joe Ferraro, president, Americas, Avis Budget Group. "We're thrilled to bring our consumer car sales program to an additional 11 states and offer residents in each of them a convenient way to shop and buy a used vehicle."
