On the morning of October 1, the reporter met Mr. Liu in a car rental store in Shanghai. He told the reporter that this was his first time to rent a car. During the National Day, the family wanted to play around, so it would be more convenient to have a car to travel.

Shanghai consumer Mr. Liu:Self-driving will be safer and more secure. I rented a car for a total of three days. At present, my plan is mainly to go to Wuxi and Suzhou, and I may go to Ningbo when I have time.

The person in charge of the store told the reporter that there are about 500 cars parked in the store, and more than 300 have been booked, of which SUV models have already been booked out.

Xu Tengyu, General Manager of Shanghai Branch of a Car Rental Platform:Today’s (October 1st) booking volume has reached 80% of our (store’s) National Day booking volume. Compared with September, the growth rate of orders (volume) has exceeded 20%.

Shanghai consumers:We are five friends, so we rent an SUV, which costs about 300 to 400 yuan a day on average. On average, it is only 80 yuan per person a day, which is quite cost-effective.

According to a platform data, the number of car rental bookings in the past week has increased by 248% compared with last week. The reporter found that during the National Day, Shanghai and Zhou Bianyou accounted for a large proportion of trips, and the growth demand of short-distance car rental market was more obvious. In addition, parent-child travel has also become a highlight of the car rental market today.

Wang Yiming, Public Relations Director of a Tourism Platform in Shanghai:From the car rental models, such economical and suitable models as 7-seat car and 9-seat car are more favored by everyone. Because the space in the car is relatively large, it is also economical and comfortable, and it is very friendly for parents and families to travel.
