Auto Europe, a car rental consolidator founded in 1954, has grown from a 10 person operation to a multimillion dollar corporation specializing in travel services for North Americans visiting Europe.
Around 2001, UK and European offices were opened to cater for Europeans looking for car hire worldwide and in 2008, the first Australian office was opened in Sydney.
With over 6,000 locations throughout Europe, Australasia, the Caribbean, Middle East, North Africa, South America, South East Asia and South Africa using major suppliers, Auto Europe is currently one of the largest networks of international transit and accommodation.
Along with standard car hire, Auto Europe offers chauffeur transfers, speciality vehicles such as 4x4 and sports cars. Peugeot short term leasing is available for those needing a vehicle for more than 17 days, often at a much cheaper price than renting. In 1996 Auto Europe expanded to offer airfare and hotel bookings as well through their tour division, Destination Europe. That segment has now grown to representing over 20,000 hotels worldwide and scheduled air departures from all major cities to Europe, Middle East and Far East.
The Pan-European operation mainly focuses on European customers looking for car hire in European and Worldwide destinations.
Auto Europe has 4 offices, with their headquarters in Portland, Maine, a call centre in Munich for European calls, an office in London and Sydney, Australia.
