National Car Rental has added the Maserati Ghibli S Q4 to its Premier Selection, a special part of the rental lot where customers can choose upscale vehicles.
The Ghibli, Maserati’s first-ever midsize luxury sports sedan, is now available at 10 National airport locations, including Boston, Fort Lauderdale, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Nashville, Orlando, Phoenix, Raleigh-Durham, San Diego and Seattle.
Because the Premier Selection vehicles are marked in the lot, customers can upgrade their rental to a Premier Selection without having to visit the rental counter, says the company. National launched its Premier Selection last year.
“The selection of upscale vehicles offered through National's Premier Selection allows our customers an opportunity to choose from a wide array of luxurious driving experiences,” said Rob Connors, assistant vice president of National’s brand marketing. “Through our work with Maserati, one of the most premium vehicle manufacturers in the world, we are able to provide National customers with another high-end upgrade option for their next rental.”
