This should be great for business. Millions of people are curious about hybrids and would cross the street to that other rental store that offers them. Anyone old enough to remember when motels advertised “waterbeds available” on their marquee for the many travelers who had never slept on one?

This is great! I recall reading in the Wall Street Journal last year, that rental companies were jacking up the cost of a standard car, and reducing the price of SUVs, once-called an “upgrade,” since nobody wanted to rent an SUV.

Little people know this, but you can actually rent a Toyota from a participating Toyota Dealership !!

The more exposure the better. Most people would be very open to renting one as a “long-term test ride” or very economical rental, especially in a large city like NYC, Boston etc

This is a very responsible thing to do, because people who rent a small car don’t always know what kind of car they are getting. when they get the Prius, they can be happy knowing they are helping to save the planet.
