Looking back at the past few
years, we see a significant increase in the number of alternative transport
solutions emerging in the island. The main reasons for this, according to many
researches are the lack of proper means of public transport, the rising price
of fuel and traffic.
With the customer-friendly taxes
and levies introduced during the past few years, many people have invested in
vehicles. This move resulted in the rapid increase of the number of vehicles
entering the roads on a daily basis. The reason behind people investing on
their own personal vehicles is the lack of proper public transports mediums.
And all of the above given factors have collectively contributed for the
emerging of the car rental Sri Lanka culture.
The rent a car services first
emerged in the Sri Lankan society towards the latter part of the 90’s decade
and achieved its pinnacle towards the first few years of the 2000’s. Those who
were in between investing on their very own vehicle and compromising the luxury
and convenience for the public transport, dearly embraced the rent a car
service concept. And the varied social and economic circumstances helped the
rent a car services to grown their roots strongly in the Sri Lankan urban
community. Today we find ample rent a car service providers in Sri Lanka.
However the quality of their service is subjected to debate. Amongst the
competition Kings rent a car has earned quite a respectable reputation in the
business.
