In February 2017, Uber ended operations in Taiwan, but returned in April with an updated business model that included partnering with car rental companies.
Operations opened at the Taoyuan International Airport, Taichung International Airport, Kaohsiung International Airport, and Taipei's Main Station.
Rental rates are tentatively set at 100 New Taiwan dollars for 30 minutes, with every additional minute slated at NT$5.
Zipcar’s expansion to Taipei, Taiwan, marks the first major city launch in Asia for the brand.
Under the new partnership, Avis Taiwan opened six rental locations at Taiwan High Speed Rail (THSR) stations.
According to projections by U.S. Travel, the number of Taiwanese travelers to the U.S. could reach a total of 346,000 in 2013 due to the Visa Waiver Program.
The new locations include Tao Yuan International Airport and downtown operations in the cities of Chu-Pei and HsinChu.
