Interchanagable Car Rentals

This Service Allows Customers to Rent Different Cars Each Month

— November 25, 2015 — Autos
'Clutch' is a monthly subscription service that allows customers to rent different cars based on their travel needs. For many consumers, car ownership is not necessary in large urban areas. This service provides an alternative for those who do not need a car on a daily basis.

Customers who sign up for the service will be able to order and use a vehicle at any time. The request for a vehicle can be placed through the Clutch app, which makes it easy and convenient to access a car on short notice. Users can choose from a variety of different cars depending on their travel needs at the time. This means that rentals can be requested for a single night or a longer weekend trip.

By giving consumers the flexibility to access different vehicles on-demand, the service provides a creative alternative to car ownership.
Trend Themes
1. Interchangeable Car Rentals - The rise of subscription services like Clutch presents an opportunity for car rental companies and dealerships to offer more flexible and personalized options to their own customers.
2. On-demand Vehicle Access - With the convenience of requesting a car for any duration through an app, other industries could also benefit from providing on-demand access to their products or services.
3. Flexible Subscription Services - The success of Clutch could inspire more companies to offer flexible subscription services for other products, such as electronics or home appliances, to meet consumers' varying needs and preferences.
Industry Implications
1. Automobile Rental - Traditional car rental companies could adopt Clutch's model to provide a more competitive and customizable service to its own customer base.
2. Automotive Dealerships - Dealerships could partner with subscription services like Clutch to offer unique promotions and attract new customers who want more flexibility with their car ownership.
3. Subscription-based Services - Subscription services outside of the automotive industry could offer more flexible and personalized options to their subscribers, such as entertainment or self-care products.
