Green Motion plans to open at San Diego’s Rental Car Center in April.

“The opening at the new San Diego airport rental center is the most recent development for the Green Motion brand,” said Richard Lowden, Green Motion’s founder and CEO. “We look forward to growing our franchises and improving our customer experience with the new state of the art facilities and streamlined rental and return access at San Diego Airport.”

The new Rental Car Center opened to airport travelers on Wed. Jan. 20.
