Lyft, the ride-hailing company recently launched a car rental service on its smartphone app that does not limit mileage.
The Lyft car rental service has reimagined the traditional car rental model and allows users to easily reserve a car directly on the Lyft app. For the San Francisco area, renting a car will be available for as little as $35 USD per day, however prices may vary based on the model and other factors. In the wake of climate change and the pollution crisis, Lyft will provide an eco-friendly solution to renters with carbon offsets for “all miles driven” by renters.
This new approach is on trend with the subscription-based model and will likely resonate well with millennials and Gen Zs.
