Last month, SK Rent-a-Car signed an MOU with Korea Electric Power Corporation to enhance convenience for electric vehicle rental customers and establish a comprehensive mobility life service system. This time, by launching the short-term electric vehicle rental product, they have taken the first step toward the future mobility service era.


Customers wishing to rent can make reservations through the SK Rent-a-Car website and customer center. To commemorate the product launch and expand the experience of electric vehicle rental products, SK Rent-a-Car is offering a 60% discount on rental fees until the end of the year.



An SK Rent-a-Car official said, "Officially launching the Tesla short-term rental product outside of Jeju Island is a meaningful attempt toward the future. We will comprehensively review customer needs and industry new product launch trends and plan to expand the provision of various electric vehicle rentals in the future."
