Avis Car Rental was recently honoured as the World’s Leading Car Hire while its website, Avis.com, was recognised as the World’s Leading Car Rental Company Website at the 2013 World Travel Awards Grand Final.

The World Travel Awards celebrates those companies and brands that are pushing the boundaries of industry excellence in products and services.

“It continues to be a great source of pride that our operations are recognised for their high standards of quality and excellence,” said Ronald Nelson, chairman and chief executive officer, Avis Budget Group.

“This is wonderful recognition which reflects the significant emphasis we’ve made on improving our systems, our products and our people to be more customer-centric, and all Avis employees around the world can take pride in this honour.”

Avis has been consistently recognised by the World Travel Awards, with honours stretching back as far back as 1997, when Avis was named World’s Leading Business Car Rental Company.
Since that time, Avis operations around the globe have received more than 80 World Travel Awards honours, including Africa’s

Leading Business Car Rental Company, Asia’s Leading Car Hire, Europe’s Leading Business Car Rental Company, Mexico and Central America’s Leading Business Car Rental Company, North America’s Leading Car Hire and South America’s Leading Car Hire.
