    Fourth quarter 2012 adjusted pre-tax income was $213.5 million, versus $165.1 million in the same period in 2011, and loss before income taxes, on a GAAP basis, was $40.3 million, versus income before income taxes of $92.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Corporate EBITDA(1) for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $412.8 million, an increase of 23.2% from the same period in 2011.

    Fourth quarter 2012 adjusted net income(1) was $140.9 million, versus $104.0 million in the same period of 2011, resulting in adjusted diluted earnings per share for the quarter of $0.33, compared with $0.24 for the fourth quarter of 2011. Fourth quarter 2012 net loss attributable to Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries’ common stockholders, on a GAAP basis, was $(36.4) million or $(0.09) per share on a diluted basis, compared with net income attributable to Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. of $47.1 million, or $0.11 per share on a diluted basis, for the fourth quarter of 2011.

    Mark P. Frissora, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I’m pleased that Hertz once again delivered record fourth quarter and full year financial performance due to sustained operational excellence, improving pricing during the fourth quarter and the positive impact of strategic investments, including the acquisition of Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group. We also continue to realize best-in-class efficiency improvements with over $480 million of incremental cost savings in 2012, bringing total savings to over $2.6 billion since 2007. Net cash flows from operations topped $2.7 billion last year, a $484.7 million year-over-year increase, and accelerating cash flow generation will be a critical financial objective going forward. Finally, 2012 marked our third consecutive year of significant double-digit percentage improvements in adjusted pre-tax income, EBITDA, and adjusted earnings per share, as well as margin expansion," Frissora concluded.

    Corporate cash flow(1) in the quarter, and full year, decreased by $2,369.9 million and $1,880.4 million respectively. The full year decrease was due primarily to the acquisition of Dollar Thrifty.

    The Company ended the fourth quarter of 2012 with total debt of $15.4 billion and net corporate debt(1) of $5.9 billion, compared with total debt of $11.3 billion and net corporate debt of $3.7 billion as of December 31, 2011. Total debt increased in the fourth quarter of 2012 primarily due to the acquisition of Dollar Thrifty.

    WORLDWIDE CAR RENTAL

    Worldwide car rental revenues were $1,932.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of 14.0% (a 14.6% increase excluding the effects of foreign currency) from the prior year period. Transaction days for the quarter increased 17.3% over the fourth quarter of 2011 [25.4% U.S.; (0.9)% International]. U.S. off-airport total revenues for the fourth quarter increased 12.2% year-over-year, and transaction days increased 12.4% from the prior year period. Worldwide rental rate revenue per transaction day(1) ("RPD") for the quarter decreased 2.8% [(1.7)% U.S.; (4.3)% International] from the prior year period. The Company noted that U.S. pricing improved during the latter portion of the fourth quarter, culminating in December airport RPD increasing 1.6% for Hertz and 4.6% for Dollar Thrifty (consistent with historical Dollar Thrifty calculation methodology). Growth in off-airport rentals, and specifically growth in replacement rentals, which have longer rental lengths, has a negative impact on RPD. However, it is important to note that off-airport’s highly contributory profit is growing significantly.

    Worldwide car rental adjusted pre-tax income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $222.0 million, an increase of $50.6 million from $171.4 million in the prior year period. The result was driven by increased volume, strong residual values and strong cost management performance, partially offset by negative RPD. As a result, worldwide car rental achieved an adjusted pre-tax margin of 11.5% for the quarter, versus 10.1% in the prior year period.

    The worldwide average number of Company-operated cars, largely as a result of the Dollar Thrifty acquisition, for the fourth quarter of 2012 was 705,800, an increase of 17.8% over the prior year period, and 9.8% year-over-year excluding the Dollar Thrifty fleet.

    WORLDWIDE EQUIPMENT RENTAL

    Worldwide equipment rental revenues were $385.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, a 21.2% increase (a 20.7% increase excluding the effects of foreign currency) from the prior year period.

    Adjusted pre-tax income for worldwide equipment rental for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $82.4 million, an improvement of $20.3 million from $62.1 million in the prior year period, primarily attributable to the effects of increased volume and pricing and cost management initiatives. Worldwide equipment rental achieved an adjusted pre-tax margin of 21.4%, and a Corporate EBITDA margin(1) of 45.9% for the quarter.

    The average acquisition cost of rental equipment operated during the fourth quarter of 2012 increased by 13.7% year-over-year and net revenue earning equipment as of December 31, 2012 was $2,198.2 million, compared to $1,786.7 million as of December 31, 2011.

    FULL YEAR RESULTS

    Worldwide revenues for the full year 2012 were $9.0 billion, an increase of 8.7% over the prior year (a 10.5% increase excluding the effects of foreign currency). Worldwide car rental revenues for the year increased 7.8% (a 9.7% increase excluding the effects of foreign currency) to $7.6 billion. Revenues from worldwide equipment rental for the year increased 14.5% (a 15.5% increase excluding the effects of foreign currency) to $1,385.4 million.

    Adjusted pre-tax income for the year was $901.5 million, an increase of 32.5% from the prior year amount of $680.5 million and pre-tax income, on a GAAP basis, was $450.6 million, an increase of 38.9%, versus $324.3 million in 2011. Corporate EBITDA for the year was $1,635.6 million, an increase of 17.7% from 2011.

    Full year 2012 adjusted net income was $595.0 million, an increase of 38.5% from 2011, resulting in adjusted diluted earnings per share for the year of $1.33, compared to $0.97 in the prior year. Full year 2012 net income, on a GAAP basis, was $243.1 million or $0.54 per share on a diluted basis, compared with $176.2 million, or $0.40 per share on a diluted basis, for 2011.

    Net cash provided by operating activities was $2,718.0 million for the year, compared to $2,233.3 million in 2011, an increase of $484.7 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net income before depreciation, amortization and other non-cash expenses. Adjusting for the cash outlay associated with acquisitions, Corporate cash flow for the year was $225.9 million, an improvement of $301.8 million over 2011.

    OUTLOOK

    For the full year 2013, the Company forecasts the following:

    Full Year 2013 Guidance

    % Variance YOY

    Revenues

    $10,850M – $10,950M

    20.3% – 21.4%

    Corporate EBITDA(2)

    $2,210M – $2,270M

    35.1% – 38.8%

    40.9% – 48.6%

    Adjusted Net Income(2)

    $830M – $875M

    39.5% – 47.1%

    Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share(2)

    $1.82 – $1.92

    37.4% – 44.9%

    The Company forecasts full year 2013 revenues in the range of $10,850.0 million to $10,950.0 million. The range is based on the projection of modest economic growth, a strong U.S. Dollar and incremental franchising of certain rental operations. The adjusted diluted number of shares outstanding is estimated to fluctuate within a range of 440 million to 455 million through the year. The estimate for Q1 is 455 million shares outstanding. For example, based on 455 million adjusted diluted shares outstanding, the Company’s full year 2013 guidance for adjusted diluted earnings per share is $1.92 at the upper end of the guidance range. The Company will provide an estimate of forecasted adjusted diluted shares outstanding on a quarterly basis.

    Additionally, Hertz forecasts lower monthly depreciation per vehicle in the U.S. of no less than 4% to 5% in 2013, with only modest deterioration in residual values due to the Company’s increasingly diversified re-marketing channels. Dollar Thrifty synergies are expected to exceed previous forecasts, now estimated at $300 million of cost synergies from 2013 through 2015, and $300 million of revenue synergies over the same period. Also, the Company expects full year 2013 cash flow after fleet growth of between $500 million and $600 million due to higher earnings, lower fleet investments and the absence of significant, additional acquisitions.

    Mark Frissora, commenting on the Company’s outlook, said, "Our operating strengths and strategic investments are expected to help yield breakout results from 2013 through 2015 in the forms of further margin expansion and accelerated cash flow generation. We continue to make significant progress reducing fleet expenses, our largest operating cost, and we are encouraged that Dollar Thrifty synergies are likely to exceed our earlier forecasts. Additionally, we are off to a fast start this year with January 2013 car rental RPD at U.S. airports up 6.0% for Hertz and 2.6% for Dollar Thrifty (consistent with historical Dollar Thrifty calculation methodology). We are also generating double-digit revenue growth from four of our $500 million-plus businesses: U.S. airport leisure, U.S. off-airport, HERC and Donlen, and we expect these businesses to maintain their pace of strong growth throughout 2013."

    RESULTS OF THE HERTZ CORPORATION

    The Company’s operating subsidiary, The Hertz Corporation ("Hertz"), posted the same revenues for the fourth quarter of 2012 as the Company. Hertz’s fourth quarter 2012 pre-tax loss was $(28.2) million versus the Company’s pre-tax loss of $(36.4) million and Hertz’s full year 2012 pre-tax income was $275.8 million versus the Company’s pre-tax income of $243.1 million. The difference between Hertz’s and the Company’s results is primarily due to additional interest expense recognized by the Company on its 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes issued in May and September 2009.

    (1) Adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted pre-tax margin, Corporate EBITDA, Corporate EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, corporate cash flow, net corporate debt and rental rate revenue per transaction day are non-GAAP measures. See the accompanying Tables and Exhibit for the reconciliations and definitions for each of these non-GAAP measures and the reason the Company’s management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

    (2) Management believes that Corporate EBITDA, adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful in measuring the comparable results of the Company period-over-period. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Corporate EBITDA, adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are (i) pre-tax income and cash flows from operating activities, (ii) pre-tax income, (iii) net income, and (iv) diluted earnings per share, respectively. Because of the forward-looking nature of the Company’s forecasted Corporate EBITDA, adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, specific quantifications of the amounts that would be required to reconcile forecasted cash flows from operating activities, pre-tax income and net income are not available. The Company believes that there is a degree of volatility with respect to certain of the Company’s GAAP measures, primarily related to fair value accounting for its financial assets (which includes the Company’s derivative financial instruments), its income tax reporting and certain adjustments made to arrive at the relevant non-GAAP measures, which preclude the Company from providing accurate forecasted GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations. Based on the above, the Company believes that providing estimates of the amounts that would be required to reconcile the range of the non-GAAP Corporate EBITDA, adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share to forecasted cash flows from operating activities, pre-tax income, net income and diluted earnings per share would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors for the reasons identified above.

    Exhibit 1

    Non-GAAP Measures: Definitions and Use/Importance

    Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Hertz Holdings") is our top-level holding company. The Hertz Corporation ("Hertz") is our primary operating company. The term "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

    Definitions of non-GAAP measures utilized in Hertz Holdings’ February 25, 2013 Press Release are set forth below. Also set forth below is a summary of the reasons why management of Hertz Holdings and Hertz believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures included in the Press Release provide useful information regarding Hertz Holdings’ and Hertz’s financial condition and results of operations and additional purposes, if any, for which management of Hertz Holdings and Hertz utilize the non-GAAP measures.

    1. Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") and Corporate EBITDA

    EBITDA is defined as net income before net interest expense, income taxes and depreciation (which includes revenue earning equipment lease charges) and amortization. Corporate EBITDA, as presented herein, represents EBITDA as adjusted for car rental fleet interest, car rental fleet depreciation and certain other items, as described in more detail in the accompanying tables.

    Management uses EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA as operating performance and liquidity metrics for internal monitoring and planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and monthly operating reviews, as well as to facilitate analysis of investment decisions, profitability and performance trends. Further, EBITDA enables management and investors to isolate the effects on profitability of operating metrics such as revenue, operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, which enables management and investors to evaluate our two business segments that are financed differently and have different depreciation characteristics and compare our performance against companies with different capital structures and depreciation policies. We also present Corporate EBITDA as a supplemental measure because such information is utilized in the calculation of financial covenants under Hertz’s senior credit facilities.

    EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA are not recognized measurements under GAAP. When evaluating our operating performance or liquidity, investors should not consider EBITDA and Corporate EBITDA in isolation of, or as a substitute for, measures of our financial performance and liquidity as determined in accordance with GAAP, such as net income, operating income or net cash provided by operating activities.

    2. Adjusted Pre-Tax Income

    Adjusted pre-tax income is calculated as income before income taxes plus non-cash purchase accounting charges, non-cash debt charges relating to the amortization of debt financing costs and debt discounts and certain one-time charges and non-operational items. Adjusted pre-tax income is important to management because it allows management to assess operational performance of our business, exclusive of the items mentioned above. It also allows management to assess the performance of the entire business on the same basis as the segment measure of profitability. Management believes that it is important to investors for the same reasons it is important to management and because it allows them to assess the operational performance of the Company on the same basis that management uses internally.

    3. Adjusted Net Income

    Adjusted net income is calculated as adjusted pre-tax income less a provision for income taxes derived utilizing a normalized income tax rate (34% in 2012 and 2011) and noncontrolling interest. The normalized income tax rate is management’s estimate of our long-term tax rate. Adjusted net income is important to management and investors because it represents our operational performance exclusive of the effects of purchase accounting, non-cash debt charges, one-time charges and items that are not operational in nature or comparable to those of our competitors.

    4. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

    Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated as adjusted net income divided by, for the three months ended December 31, 2012, 421.1 million which represents the weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the period; for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, 448.2 million which represents the weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the period; for the three months ended December 31, 2011, 437.2 million which represents the weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the period; and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, 444.8 million which represents the weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is important to management and investors because it represents a measure of our operational performance exclusive of the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, non-cash debt charges, one-time charges and items that are not operational in nature or comparable to those of our competitors.

    5. Transaction Days

    Transaction days represent the total number of days that vehicles were on rent in a given period.

    6. Car Rental Rate Revenue, Rental Rate Revenue Per Transaction Day and Rental Rate Revenue Per Transaction

    Car rental rate revenue consists of all revenue, net of discounts, associated with the rental of cars including charges for optional insurance products, but excluding revenue derived from fueling and concession and other expense pass-throughs, NeverLost units in the U.S. and certain ancillary revenue. Rental rate revenue per transaction day is calculated as total rental rate revenue, divided by the total number of transaction days, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Rental rate revenue per transaction is calculated as total rental rate revenue, divided by the total number of transactions, with all periods adjusted to eliminate the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. These statistics are important to management and investors as they represent the best measurements of the changes in underlying pricing in the car rental business and encompass the elements in car rental pricing that management has the ability to control. The optional insurance products are packaged within certain negotiated corporate, government and membership programs and within certain retail rates being charged. Based upon these existing programs and rate packages, management believes that these optional insurance products should be consistently included in the daily pricing of car rental transactions. On the other hand, non-rental rate revenue items such as refueling and concession pass-through expense items are driven by factors beyond the control of management (i.e. the price of fuel and the concession fees charged by airports). Additionally, NeverLost units are an optional revenue product which management does not consider to be part of their daily pricing of car rental transactions.

    7. Equipment Rental and Rental Related Revenue

    Equipment rental and rental related revenue consists of all revenue, net of discounts, associated with the rental of equipment including charges for delivery, loss damage waivers and fueling, but excluding revenue arising from the sale of equipment, parts and supplies and certain other ancillary revenue. Rental and rental related revenue is adjusted in all periods to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends. This statistic is important to our management and to investors as it is utilized in the measurement of rental revenue generated per dollar invested in fleet on an annualized basis and is comparable with the reporting of other industry participants.

    8. Same Store Revenue Growth/Decline

    Same store revenue growth or decline is calculated as the year over year change in revenue for locations that are open at the end of the period reported and have been operating under our direction for more than twelve months. The same store revenue amounts are adjusted in all periods to eliminate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency. Our management believes eliminating the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency is appropriate so as not to affect the comparability of underlying trends.

    9. Unlevered Pre-Tax Cash Flow

    Unlevered pre-tax cash flow is calculated as Corporate EBITDA less non-fleet capital expenditures, net of non-fleet disposals, plus changes in working capital (receivables, excluding car rental receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities), cash used for acquisitions, cash used for / provided by other investing activities, cash used / provided by non-debt financing activities and the foreign exchange impact on cash and cash equivalents. Unlevered pre-tax cash flow is important to management and investors as it represents funds available to pay corporate interest and taxes and to grow our fleet or reduce debt.

    10. Levered After-Tax Cash Flow Before Fleet Growth

    Levered after-tax cash flow before fleet growth is calculated as Unlevered Pre-Tax Cash Flow less corporate net cash interest and corporate cash taxes. Levered after-tax cash flow before fleet growth is important to management and investors as it represents the funds available to grow our fleet or reduce our debt.

    11. Corporate Net Cash Interest (used in the calculation of Levered After-Tax Cash Flow Before Fleet Growth)

    Corporate net cash interest represents cash paid by the Company during the period for interest expense relating to Corporate Debt. Corporate net cash interest helps management and investors measure the ongoing costs of financing the business exclusive of the costs associated with the fleet financing.

    12. Corporate Cash Taxes (used in the calculation of Levered After-Tax Cash Flow Before Fleet Growth)

    Corporate cash taxes represents cash paid by the Company during the period for income taxes.

    13. Corporate Cash Flow

    Corporate cash flow is calculated as Levered After-Tax Cash Flow Before Fleet Growth less equipment rental fleet growth capital expenditures, net of disposal proceeds and less the car rental fleet equity requirement. Corporate cash flow is important to management and investors as it represents the cash available for the reduction of corporate debt.

    14. Net Corporate Debt

    Net corporate debt is calculated as total debt excluding fleet debt less cash and equivalents and corporate restricted cash. Corporate debt consists of our Senior Term Facility; Senior ABL Facility; Senior Notes; Senior Subordinated Notes, Convertible Senior Notes; and certain other indebtedness of our domestic and foreign subsidiaries. Net Corporate Debt is important to management, investors and ratings agencies as it helps measure our leverage. Net Corporate Debt also assists in the evaluation of our ability to service our non-fleet-related debt without reference to the expense associated with the fleet debt, which is fully collateralized by assets not available to lenders under the non-fleet debt facilities.

    15. Corporate Restricted Cash (used in the calculation of Net Corporate Debt)

    Total restricted cash includes cash and cash equivalents that are not readily available for our normal disbursements. Total restricted cash and equivalents are restricted for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles and other specified uses under our Fleet Debt facilities, our like-kind exchange programs and to satisfy certain of our self insurance regulatory reserve requirements. Corporate restricted cash is calculated as total restricted cash less restricted cash associated with fleet debt.

    16. Net Fleet Debt

    Net fleet debt is calculated as total fleet debt less restricted cash associated with fleet debt. As of December 31, 2012, fleet debt consists of HVF U.S. Fleet Variable Funding Notes, HVF U.S. Fleet Medium Term Notes, RCFC U.S. Fleet Variable Funding Notes, RCFC U.S. Fleet Medium Term Notes, Donlen GN II Variable Funding Notes, U.S. Fleet Financing Facility, European Revolving Credit Facility, European Fleet Notes, European Securitization, Hertz-Sponsored Canadian Securitization, Dollar Thrifty-Sponsored Canadian Securitization, Australian Securitization, Brazilian Fleet Financing and Capitalized Leases relating to revenue earning equipment. This measure is important to management, investors and ratings agencies as it helps measure our leverage.

    17. Restricted Cash Associated with Fleet Debt (used in the calculation of Net Fleet Debt and Corporate Restricted Cash)

    Restricted cash associated with fleet debt is restricted for the purchase of revenue earning vehicles and other specified uses under our Fleet Debt facilities and our car rental like-kind exchange program.

    18. Total Net Debt

    Total net debt is calculated as net corporate debt plus net fleet debt. This measure is important to management, investors and ratings agencies as it helps measure our leverage.

The new partnership between the world’s largest general use car rental brand and Transworld will build upon the growing number of outbound Hertz car rentals from Kuwait, with the USA, Germany, France and Switzerland topping the list of global destinations for Hertz Kuwait customers in 2012.

    (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110810/NY50373LOGO)

    Transworld has recruited an independent sales team which will operate as a dedicated resource to represent the Hertz brand for outbound car rental in Kuwait, providing a new level of service and support for the country’s travel trade professionals making car rental bookings globally for their customers.

    The move will increase Hertz product awareness among the travel trade and grow outbound sales by capitalizing on Transworld’s extensive international retail network to boost business from corporate customers and consumers.

    "The Hertz brand is one of the most well-known car rental brands globally and is instantly recognizable by millions of people," said Michel Taride, President, Hertz International and Executive Vice President, Hertz Corporation.

    "We have an assertive long-term outbound growth strategy for Kuwait which focuses on key destinations such as the USA and Europe. Having helped customers around the world for more than 90 years, this new partnership with Transworld Company builds upon the longstanding history Hertz has built in Kuwait."

    "Providing a wealth of products for our customers has always been our aim and this partnership with Hertz allows us to widen the range of services we offer," said Cristiana Stefan, Hertz Manager, Transworld.

    "We look forward to establishing Transworld as the face of the Hertz brand amongst the travel trade in Kuwait and building Hertz brand awareness among our customers, trade and corporate client portfolio."

    The new GSA appointment is the latest in a wave of fresh investment by Hertz Kuwait this year to improve its booking channels and customer service levels.

  • Hertz Launches Vehicle Upgrades Via Mobile Devices
Carfirmations Enhancement Brings the Convenience and Speed of Mobile Technology to Selecting a Rental Car

    Hertz Launches Vehicle Upgrades Via Mobile Devices Carfirmations Enhancement Brings the Convenience and Speed of Mobile Technology to Selecting a Rental Car

    PARK RIDGE, N.J., Jan. 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Delivering again on its commitment to provide the fastest and easiest experiences in the car rental industry, The Hertz Corporation (NYSE:HTZ) announced today that its Hertz Gold Plus Rewards members may now select an upgraded or different rental vehicle via their smartphone. Hertz Gold Plus Rewards members are offered a range of cars on their smartphone which they can instantly rent in lieu of the reserved vehicle. A significant enhancement of its ‘Carfirmations’ or Mobile Gold Alerts service, members can now execute a vehicle change in three simple clicks prior to pick-up and without talking to a rental agent.

    "Our customers expect speed and convenience which is why we continue to invest in user-friendly services and tools to meet their expectations in an increasingly technology-driven world," commented Hertz Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mark P. Frissora. "Carfirmations now give our valued Gold Members the ability to upgrade their reserved rental directly from their mobile devices as soon as they’ve landed. This new level of convenience and choice is unique in the car rental industry – and customers love it."

    Hertz Carfirmations are an email and mobile SMS text service that notifies Hertz Gold Plus Rewards members, prior to arrival, about their rental, including specific vehicle information and car location. Clicking a link in the message provides customers renting at U.S. airport locations up to three options: switching to a different car at no additional cost; the Deal of the Day; or upgrading to a nicer car while presenting the specific make, model and color of the available cars. In addition, where available, cars with NeverLost GPS are offered.

    To launch the new upgrades, Hertz piloted the service in both Los Angeles and Washington D.C. throughout December and has since introduced Mobile Gold Alert upgrades to the top 50 airport locations in the U.S. Thousands of customers participated in the pilot program and overwhelmingly positive responses included everything from ‘loved it,’ to ‘being able to see in advance what I’m getting, and change it to something more suitable, is a big selling point,’ to ‘I couldn’t believe how awesome this was.’

    With more than two million customers using Mobile Gold Alerts, and more than 500,000 alerts sent each month, Hertz’s Carfirmations upgrade is one of many recent technology upgrades from Hertz, including:

    • Hertz Gold Choice ("Choose Control") gives a Gold customer the power to select their own car and go. They can keep the pre-assigned car or simply choose another and head straight to the exit gate, something no other car rental company offers. Gold Choice is currently available at 58 locations worldwide.
    • Hertz’s e-Return ("Zap Technology") allows customers to simply drop off their car and go at time of rental return. With Hertz e-Return, Hertz emails the customer’s receipt in a flash (typically within 30 minutes of returning a car). More than two million e-Return receipts have been sent on 78% of Gold transactions, with 650,000 e-Receipts sent each month.
    • Hertz ExpressRent Interactive Kiosks™, available at more than 100 airport and neighborhood locations in the U.S. and Europe, is the only self-service kiosk in the industry equipped with a touchscreen interface and a second screen that allow customers to interact directly with live customer service agents via video to pick up existing rentals or create new rental agreements. Recently, Hertz recorded more than 8,000 kiosk rental transactions per week in the U.S., setting a new record. Hertz ExpressRent Interactive Kiosks have been recognized for innovating the car rental experience, winning awards including the 2012 CIO 100 award and Best (Self Service) Kiosk in Zagat’s 2012/2013 car rental survey.

    Hertz is committed to offering its customers the most technologically innovative products and services available to keep customers "Traveling at the Speed of Hertz." This includes Hertz ‘Carfirmations’; ‘Gold Choice’, which gives Gold members the power to keep the car they reserved or simply choose a different car from the Gold Choice area; and e-Return, with the fastest car rental drop-off that includes an email receipt within hours. These are all complimentary services for Hertz Gold Plus Rewards members, which is currently free to join. In addition, Hertz continues to expand the presence of its ExpressRent Interactive Kiosks that let customers rent a car, with or without a reservation, through a live, face-to-face video kiosk.
