Enterprise Switzerland launches new mobility service in Basel: rent a car without queuing at the counter

21 Feb 2022 12:36 | Bosco (Administrator)

Opposite the Basel SBB train station, the car rental company Enterprise Switzerland is now offering the possibility to quickly and independently switch to a selection of rental cars with "Click & Go" in the parking garage of the Hotel Victoria. With this unique mobility offer throughout Switzerland, Enterprise Switzerland wants to herald a new phase in urban mobility. The company has already tested its new offer at various Swiss railway stations and is now expanding it to urban areas.

New mobility offers are making their way into urban areas throughout Switzerland. The linking of road and rail transport is progressing steadily with the inclusion of further providers of e-bikes or e-scooters. The focus of urban mobility solutions is particularly on flexible rental models for vehicles, which are used as a supplement depending on the need. Against this background, Enterprise Switzerland and Hotel Victoria are jointly launching "Click & Go". As of now, three rental vehicles are available at the Parking Hotel Victoria, which can be rented spontaneously and independently for individually definable periods of time using the associated web app.


App replaces car key

Thierry Gavoille, member of the executive board of Helvetic Mobility AG, which holds the Swiss licence for Enterprise Switzerland, explains: "Our web app enterprise-go.ch can be used to check the availability of our vehicles at the locations, book an individual rental period and unlock the vehicle in question on site using the Bluetooth function of the smartphone. With this uncomplicated handling, we also want to give people who decide at short notice the opportunity to access one of our vehicles when needed. One click in the app is all it takes.

Enterprise Switzerland has already successfully tested its new service in cooperation with SBB at various Swiss railway stations and is now expanding it to the Basel city area due to the high demand. Thierry Gavoille emphasises: "In the first phase, we will provide three vehicles in the small and family car segment at our location in the parking lot of the Hotel Victoria. Whether someone wants to travel alone to a meeting outside the city centre or take the whole family on a day trip to the countryside, our rental vehicles provide this flexibility 24/7."

Individual and varied

Enterprise Switzerland plans to create new locations throughout Switzerland in the coming months and at the same time increase the selection of rental vehicles. Thierry Gavoille emphasises: "We are currently focusing on the needs of urban areas. With additional locations, we will also adapt our offer accordingly. We see the future of mobility in a flexible offer that is adapted to the respective needs of the transport users. Whether train, tram, e-bike or rental vehicle - we see "Click & Go" as a perfectly fitting piece of the puzzle for the mobility of the future. As a brand-independent provider, we are able to offer our customers a wide range of brands and models, from the Nissan Micra to the Volvo XC90 - freshly cleaned and sanitised before every booking."
