Company Overview

Avis Car Rental and its subsidiaries operate one of the world’s best-known car rental brands with approximately 5,500 locations in more than 165 countries. Avis has a long history of innovation in the car rental industry and is one of the world’s top brands for customer loyalty. Avis is owned by Avis Budget Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CAR), which operates and licenses the brand throughout the world.  

Quick History

Founded in 1946 by Warren Avis (who sold his interest in 1954), Avis was the first company to rent cars from airport locations. The company grew rapidly during the 1950’s through franchised and corporate-owned expansion. In 1963, Avis introduced the award-winning “We try harder®” campaign and the tagline remains the company’s rallying cry even today. Ten years later, Avis launched its innovative Wizard system, the company’s proprietary reservation technology. Avis changed ownership multiple times in the 70’s and 80’s, becoming employee-owned in 1987. That same year, Avis introduced the Roving Rapid Return, a handheld computer terminal allowing customers to bypass the Avis counter. Two years later, the company launched Avis Cares® a program aimed at promoting renter and employee safety. In 1996, HFS Incorporated acquired Avis, which was then spun off as a separate public company, all but the franchising rights, Wizard system, and reservation operations. In 2000, the company introduced Avis Interactive, the first Internet-based reporting system for commercial accounts in the car rental industry, which was significantly enhanced and re-launched in 2006. In March 2001, Cendant Corporation purchased all of the outstanding shares of Avis Group Holdings and later that year moved its world headquarters to Parsippany, NJ. In 2006, Cendant Corp. separated into four independent companies: Realogy, Wyndham Worldwide, Travelport and Avis Budget Group, Inc., which is now the parent company of Avis Car Rental. In 2011, Avis Budget Group acquires Avis Europe plc. The transaction re-unites Avis Budget Group with its licensee for Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia.

Indianapolis Intl Airport

Additional Travel Information

Business travelers visiting Indianapolis prefer Avis Car Rental, both because of the Indianapolis International Airport (IND) location’s great deals on its massive fleet of airport car rentals and a variety of vehicles to choose from, from compact cars to luxury vehicles and SUVs.

The IND car rental counter is located outside the terminal doors and across the walkway at the Ground Transportation Center. It’s a twenty minute drive in light traffic from the Indianapolis airport car rentals lot to Mile Square, the city’s downtown business area. Word of warning: you’ll need a vehicle if you plan to travel to meetings across this sprawling Midwestern city, and Avis has the selection, quality and great deals to make sure you do it in style.

In recent years, downtown Indianapolis has undergone a significant transformation. Whereas once there were only vacant storefronts and little activity on the streets, it has since become a dynamic urban center featuring many chic restaurants, a newly renovated convention center, art galleries, museums, sports stadiums, urban parks and towering skyscrapers. Instead of arriving, doing business and leaving, visitors to Indy are sticking around for fun, especially during basketball season when the city’s pro and college team schedules are in full swing. Tickets to one of these games makes a for a perfect client schmoozing night.

Whether you’re here for business or pleasure, you’ll find it easy to reserve, pick up and drop off Indianapolis International Airport rental cars from Avis. And if you’re on the road often, you can accelerate your travel experience with Avis Preferred, a complimentary membership that allows you to skip the line and go straight to your car.
