Teledriving is set to transform the car rental and sharing industries, attracting users who currently opt for alternative transportation methods. Here’s how this groundbreaking technology is making a difference:
Better Vehicle Distribution
Teledriving allows vehicles to be dynamically relocated to match demand, ensuring optimal utilization. This means the same service level can be achieved with fewer vehicles, which are utilized about twice as efficiently. As a result, rental and sharing companies can see approximately 50% reductions in vehicle upkeep and fleet management costs. This efficient distribution is a game-changer for the industry.
Improved Maintenance
With Teledriving, vehicles can be sent to maintenance facilities remotely. This ensures that they are always in top shape, allowing rental companies to charge premium prices for well-maintained, reliable cars. Regular and efficient maintenance is key to providing high-quality service and retaining customer trust.
Direct-to-Customer Delivery & Collection
One of the most exciting benefits of Teledriving is the ability to deliver cars directly to customers’ doors. This eliminates the need for costly retail locations and significantly enhances customer convenience. By offering this premium service, rental and sharing companies can attract more users, increasing their market potential. The new service experience can increase the total addressable market (TAM) for car sharing and rental by roughly three times. It brings in customers who might otherwise choose ride-hailing, public transport, or private vehicle ownership.
Real-World Impact
Vay is actively demonstrating the transformative impact of Teledriving technology through its consumer carshare operations in Las Vegas.
