Pent-up demand for travel and a limited supply of new vehicles caused Car Rental industry revenue to surge in 2021 and 2022, as high demand and low supply elevated rental prices. More recently, the industry has grappled with a swift devaluation of electric vehicle models and falling passenger volumes at airports, which are vital to success. As travel demand normalizes and new vehicle production stabilizes, car rental companies are adapting by implementing strategies, including optimizing fleet sizes and strengthening digital platforms. Industry revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 6.2% to reach $60.7 billion through the end of 2025, despite a 1.3% drop in 2025 alone. Profit has recovered from the lows endured during the pandemic, accounting for an estimated 8.3% of industry revenue in 2025. On the bright side, the return of business travel gives the industry a boost, as resuming corporate events and networking activities have strengthened rental demand among companies, promising more stable revenues and customers desiring top-tier services. However, new challenges have unfolded, including stronger competition from ride-sharing services. Car rental providers are adopting responsive strategies, such as digital check-ins, contactless pickups, flexible drop-offs and dynamic pricing. They've had to rebalance fleet sizes to match booking volumes while enhancing digital capabilities to attract tech-savvy travelers. The growing number of international visitors, driven by mega-events like the FIFA 2026 World Cup and the 2028 Summer Olympics, offers an opportunity for car rental companies to soar through the next five years to 2030. Preparations for these influxes, such as investing in premium fleet options and forging partnerships with travel aggregators and tour operators, are in full swing. The industry will gear up for technological advancements like limited deployments of self-driving cars. Car rental providers will actively seek strategic collaborations like affiliate programs or partnerships with travel platforms and public transit providers to extend their reach. Despite some headwinds, the industry appears ready for the challenges ahead, leveraging innovation, adaptability and strategic partnerships. Car rental revenue will expand at a CAGR of 2.2% to $67.5 billion through the end of 2030.

The market is experiencing significant shifts, driven by rising vehicle ownership costs and the advent of intermediaries. The escalating expense of owning and maintaining a personal vehicle has led an increasing number of consumers to opt for car rental services, providing a lucrative opportunity for market players.

The Canadian car rental industry is currently facing several challenges, despite a 2.2% climb in passenger traffic at key airports in 2025. Despite the boost in air travel, car rental revenue is dwindling, primarily attributed to changes in traveler behavior, including shorter stay durations and less frequent car rentals, alongside a growing attraction to ride-sharing and public transit. Industry giants like Avis Budget Group and Hertz traditionally derive substantial revenue from the airport market but are now retooling pricing strategies because of evolving traveler habits. Car rental companies are grappling with rising insurance and maintenance costs, driven by inflation, technological advancements in vehicles and increasing accident claims. Revenue is expected to climb at a CAGR of 5.2% to $6.2 billion through the end of 2025, despite a 3.6% drop in 2025, when profit will reach 8.4%. The gain in revenue through the end of 2025 can be mainly attributed to the high rental rates and strong utilization rental providers enjoyed in 2022 and 2023. Car rental companies are reevaluating their fleet electrification in response to weakening demand for electric vehicles (EVs) in Canada. Surprisingly, EV sales are dipping and Canadians are favoring hybrids or gasoline vehicles over electric alternatives because of concerns about charging infrastructure and range. This scenario is problematic for car rental companies, given the higher acquisition cost of EVs compared to conventional vehicles. Companies are slowing down their fleet electrification efforts, focusing more on hybrids and maintaining traditional vehicles in response to customer demand. The future of the Canadian car rental industry will be shaped by increasing competition from ride-sharing services and the adoption of transformative digital technologies. Uber and Lyft are already considerable threats to market demand, especially for short-duration and urban trips. In response, rental companies are intensifying their digital innovation initiatives, experimenting with short-term rental options and forming partnerships with mobility platforms. Significant international events such as the 2026 FIFA World Cup and improvements in vehicle technologies like autonomous capabilities will directly impact the industry. Rental providers are gearing up to accommodate the expected surge in demand by expanding their fleets and enhancing digital service channels. On the technical side, while hands-on involvement in autonomous vehicle (AV) fleet operations is currently limited, companies are investing in connected vehicle technology, anticipating the adoption of AVs. Because of these trends, industry revenue will climb at a CAGR of 1.9% to $6.8 billion through the end of 2030.
