How Rental Car Companies Can Navigate the Maze of Damage Recovery

January 24, 2024
Go to Article

The rental car industry is at a crossroads. Faced with the constant issue of recovering costs from damages incurred during rentals, companies are searching for innovative solutions to an age-old problem. The stakes are high: recent studies indicate that about 10% of rentals return with damage, yet recovery of these costs remains far too low. At the heart of this challenge lies a deeply flawed process. Traditional methods of damage inspection and recovery are not just cumbersome; they are a logistical nightmare. The requirement for manual inspection and appraisal disrupts operational flow, grounding vehicles and creating bottlenecks in what should be a seamless system. This inefficiency is not just an operational headache — it's a financial sinkhole.

Contactless Rental Vehicle Inspection: An Idea Whose Time Has Come

October 3, 2023
Go to Article

Rental car damage is a concern for both car rental companies and for customers. The former, of course, want to be sure that their vehicles are returned as intact as possible, so they can be quickly deployed for the next customer. Customers have their own concerns—like being charged for damage they did not cause. On the other hand, some customers who damage rental vehicles try to cover up that damage. It's a tug of war—and makes for an unpleasant experience for everyone. But technology to the rescue: Using digital tools, augmented reality, computer vision technology, artificial intelligence and automation, customers can be assured of a fair bill when they return a vehicle and companies can make sure they are treating customers fairly and honestly. This technology, in fact, enables companies to set up contactless returns—where customers simply drop off vehicles and are immediately informed about charges for damage, if any—payable either by them or insurance companies. Perhaps even more importantly, it brings us closer to eliminating uncertainty about whether or not damage occurred during a rental agreement or not.

Nestled within the core of the vibrant auto remarketing ecosystem, vehicle inspection processes — once held sacred in their traditional form — are now under the lens of technological disruption.

Why, one might ponder, is an industry so steeped in traditional prowess turning its compass towards the siren call of modernity?

Online Image Analysis and Used-Car Transparency

September 26, 2023
Go to Article

Shopping for books, tech products, clothing and much more has gone online – and auto sales are no exception. Drivers seeking to purchase a used car, as well as individuals seeking to sell one, now have an online option, too: the online auto auction, where sellers can reach potential buyers from across the city, state, or country while buyers get access to a huge selection of vehicles. “What you see is what you get” is generally the rule for online sales, but you often can’t see what you need to in order to make the most informed decision. When customers bid on and receive a vehicle that is not as represented online – for example, with scratches that may not show up well in online images – they’re likely to be unhappy, to the extent that they may demand reimbursement for the undisclosed damage or, worse, request a full refund and return.

The Future of Car Rentals: Big Data and Game-Changing AI Inspection Technology

September 21, 2023
Go to Article

A ride in a rented car was once nothing more than a means to an end, a necessity for tourists, business travelers or for those whose cars were temporarily out of commission. But in today’s digitally driven world, the ride has become an experience — one that car rental companies are constantly striving to improve. Big data has emerged as the cornerstone of this transformation, driving efficiency, profitability, and growth in a sector critical to global transportation. With an estimated valuation of $92.92 billion in 2020, and a fleet running into the millions worldwide, the car rental industry enables mobility for a vast array of customers. Yet, the sector is ripe for disruption. The integration of big data, coupled with the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), can unleash a wave of innovation that stands to revolutionize the car rental experience.

September 20, 2023 First it was Japan, then Korea—and now it’s China that is contending for the crown as the world centre for auto manufacturing. That crown, of course, once belonged to the US, particularly Detroit. But it’s been decades since America has been seen as the world leader in auto manufacturing. Over the past decade or so the auto industry has been reinventing itself, with electric vehicles (EVs), autonomous driving, and advanced onboard AI systems turning cars into computers on wheels. And that reinvention provides a potential opportunity for the US to return to its former leadership role, setting trends and advancing the technology that will power the vehicles of tomorrow.

The Future of Vehicle Inspections Is Remote

August 24, 2023
Go to Article

When someone buys a car, registers a car or sells a used car to someone else, at least three people are involved: the buyer, the seller – and the inspector. Those individuals are crucial for all car transactions, whether to ensure that the vehicle is roadworthy, to fulfill government mandates for safety inspections or to just give buyers confidence that they’re paying a fair price. Increasingly, inspections are being performed by remote systems, where instead of physically scouring over individual vehicles, inspectors remotely analyze images and data about vehicles to determine if they are roadworthy, if they have sustained damage in an accident, if they are worth the listed price or if they have some hidden engine issues. And as technology improves – with advanced sensors and imaging systems uploading data and images over near-zero latency communication systems, coupled with next-generation AI and data analysis – the trends that have already made individual, in-person inspections a shrinking industry will continue.

Industry Voices: Repairing Auto Parts Can Reduce Carbon Emissions and Costs

June 12, 2023
Go to Article

The global automotive industry has made a significant effort to reduce its carbon footprint, especially as regulation ramps up in regions like the UK, where the country plans to transition to zero emission vehicles by 2035. Increasingly, carbon reduction efforts in the automotive industry are extending beyond simply reducing emissions from driving. This focus on sustainability is now contributing to a growing interest among insurance companies, auto resellers and large fleet managers in repairing vehicles in a less carbon-intensive manner, including fixing rather than replacing parts. Those businesses carrying out repairs are also increasingly concerned about reducing emissions, and are shifting to repairing parts whenever possible, especially since the PAS2060 certification (which verifies that businesses are carbon neutral), became available to automotive repair shops in the United Kingdom.
