Europcar has long been committed to the environment, particularly through the careful selection of vehicles it offers for rental. Through its partnership with an environmental protection organization, it makes its customers, to their benefit, friends of nature.

Europcar’s strategy is simple to obtain the least polluting vehicles on the market. It consists of offering the most recent vehicles for rental that comply with the most demanding environmental standards. Europcar keeps pace with technology focused on sustainable development, and this is evident in its vehicle choices. The vast majority of its cars meet the essential criterion of an eco-friendly car, which is CO2 emissions per kilometer below 140 grams, while many of its small city cars fall into category A, the most environmentally friendly, with a CO2 rate per kilometer below 100.

Europcar acts directly for sustainable development through the partnership it has established with Weforest, of which it is a donor. The car rental leader has committed to donating a portion of its profits to this foundation to finance reforestation in the Sahel in Burkina Faso, thus combating desertification in Africa and contributing to maintaining the ecological balance of the planet.

Choosing an eco-friendly car at Europcar means being doubly active in sustainable mobility. It means using low-polluting vehicles and providing sustainable development with the financial means to establish itself. And all this with some of the lowest costs, as well as numerous rental possibilities, some of which can be economical alternatives to buying a vehicle, which is inevitably expensive, among other things, due to maintenance.

It is with this in mind that Europcar has created flexible plans tailored to people wishing to limit their environmental impact, for example by splitting the use of their car. Rental for 1 hour or 8, rental for the weekend or holidays with the preferential rate obtained by the Funway card, Autoliberté subscriptions offering discounts of up to 60% on private vehicle rentals and 20% on utility vehicle rentals, the advantageous plans offered by Europcar are countless.

Preserving the purchasing power of its customers while safeguarding the planet is Europcar’s ambition, a company certified as a friend of the environment by its ISO 14001 standard.
