The continuing shortage of semiconductor chips and increasing demand have caused an unprecedented shortage of new and used vehicles. This seminar will provide strategies for car rental operators when the normal fleeting and de-fleeting patterns do not apply. Attendees will gain insights into automakers’ production timelines, working with independent brokers and local dealers, assessing fleeting up through the used car market, and when to de-fleet, along with tips on maintaining vehicles for longer rental lengths. This panel brings decades of experience in fleet buying, remarketing, and operations to help operators successfully navigate these uncertain times.
