The leading car hire comparison site, Carrentals.co.uk, has launched a new app for Android users, comparing rental prices from up to 50 suppliers in over 15,000 locations around the World.

Designed to make it easy for travellers to compare, select and make a real time car hire booking from their mobile handset, the app is available at www.carrentals.co.uk/about/carrentals-mobile/carrentals-android-app.

Once booked, the reference number is sent straight to the mobile phone and the rental voucher is emailed to the preferred address, ensuring customers quickly have all of their reservation details.

Gareth Robinson, Managing Director of Carrentals.co.uk, says: “The growing popularity of smartphones is making it far easier for travellers to arrange their plans on the go.  Our app brings the un-matched choice of Carrentals.co.uk to mobile handsets, allowing customers to compare the widest choice of car hire deals and the best prices whenever and wherever they choose.”

The company is scheduled to launch the Carrentals.co.uk mobile app for the Apple iPhone later this year.

The award winning Carrentals.co.uk compares deals from companies including Alamo, Auto Europe, Budget, Holiday Autos and Sixt, and has booked over 650,000 rentals to date.  For more information visit www.carrentals.co.uk
