PARK RIDGE, NJ--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 14, 2006 --
Following the successful launch of its signature 'Fun Collection' and the special-edition Ford Shelby GT-H Mustang in Spring 2006, Hertz today puts even more exciting vehicle choices into travelers' hands with the addition of the Chrysler 300, Dodge Magnum, and Dodge Charger, now available in Hertz Fun Collection markets nationwide. Created for leisure travelers seeking exciting driving experiences, the Hertz Fun Collection features an array of sporty vehicles including convertibles, coupes, roadsters and SUVs.
Rounding out the Fun Collection with their robust performance credentials and elegant styling, these three new vehicle additions each offer unique features appealing to travelers exploring the open road. The Chrysler 300 features brawny good looks, a balance of handling and comfort, and an aerodynamic exterior delivering wind-noise management and enhanced fuel efficiency. The Dodge Charger features exceptional ride and handling, functional exterior enhancements and a race-inspired interior, while the Dodge Magnum incorporates such unique features as 'command-of-the-road' seating providing a better view of the road, and steering wheel-mounted controls giving drivers fingertip command of a variety of electronic functions.
"Hertz is proud to lead the way in giving customers more choices and control to enhance their travels this summer and beyond," said Frank Camacho, Hertz Staff Vice President, Marketing. "We are delighted to expand the Hertz Fun Collection, offering services and programs that highlight the driving experience."
