It's strange to say, but it's true: Rental cars are smelling fresher these days.
Since last October, Avis and Budget banned smoking in their cars, enforcing the rule with a $250 cleaning fee for violators.
Hertz, which hasn't completely banned smoking, does set aside "smoke-free" cars for booking. It's found a creative way to keep its cars odor free for its customers. In the past year, the chain has rolled out Fresh Wave IAQ, an "all-natural odor neutralizing technology" to nearly all of its U.S. locations. Made of natural plant extracts, the products are biodegradable and non-toxic.
