Europcar has announced a new partnership with the RAC.

As the car rental partner to the RAC, 2.1 million of its members will have access to a 15 per cent discount on Europcar rental vehicles in the UK and worldwide.

With a European network of over 3,300 stations as well as thousands more across the 150 countries in which Europcar operates, and a wide choice of vehicles, RAC members can tackle all their car hire needs efficiently and cost-effectively.  RAC members can also benefit from Europcar Deliver & Collect, which brings the rental vehicle to the customer’s door, available in the UK.

“This new partnership has arrived at the perfect time for RAC members, as we start the new year,” said Gary Smith, managing director, Europcar Mobility Group in the UK.

“Whether they are jetting off for a winter break or planning their next UK break, UK, RAC members can enjoy savings across our wide array of rental vehicles.”

The new discount for RAC members is available for rentals of between one and 27 days.

All RAC members need to do is log in via the official website.

RAC chief marketing officer, Alex Heath, said: “Partnering with Europcar was a natural choice for us as it offers our members a very valuable discount which they can easily take advantage of wherever they travel, or even at home should they ever need to a hire car.

“We aim to provide our members with simple solutions to all their motoring needs and a hire car partnership with a leader in the field is a vital part of that.”

Europcar is considered the World’s Leading Green Transport Solution Company by the World Travel Awards.
