Enterprise prioritizes strengthening its established core competencies, such as customer service and employee development, over chasing competitors into new ventures. This disciplined approach ensures they grow from a position of strength across their various business divisions like daily rental, car sales, and fleet management.
The company approaches new technologies like electric vehicles (EVs), autonomous vehicles (AVs), and AI as evolutionary tools to enhance their current offerings. This contrasts with a revolutionary approach, emphasizing gradual integration that aligns with customer readiness and existing business strengths.
Enterprise sees a unique opportunity to educate the public about electric vehicles. Since a majority of their rental customers need a replacement vehicle after an accident, the rental acts as an extended, practical test drive, helping to demystify EV technology for a mainstream audience.
To navigate the complexities of the EV transition, Enterprise actively collaborates with a wide range of stakeholders. This includes working with OEMs on vehicle supply, government officials on policy and infrastructure, and other partners to ensure the entire ecosystem evolves together.
