Kansas City
AVIS Budget Group Inc said on Thursday it has launched in the Kansas City, Missouri, area its first fleet of cars that are fully connected to the Internet, other vehicles, and to the car rental company via wireless technology as it seeks to enhance its fleet-management services.
The Parsippany, New Jersey-based company's so-called Mobility Lab will connect all 5,000 cars in its Kansas City fleet and share live data with the city from those vehicles so it can sharpen computerised traffic flow models, and collaborate on ways to improve tourists' experiences when they rent through Avis.
