Mobile-only car rental service Virtuo has launched its first Scottish rental location in Edinburgh.
The Virtuo app allows users to register, book and unlock a brand new Mercedes A-Class or GLA vehicle to hire.
The cars will be available at Q-Park Omni car park, a short walk from Edinburgh Waverley, and bring Virtuo鈥檚 UK fleet to a total of more than 250 premium vehicles.
鈥淲e鈥檙e incredibly excited to be expanding to our first location in Scotland,鈥 said Michael Altom, general manager UK, France and Belgium at Virtuo.
鈥淓dinburgh is one of the most exciting, vibrant and populous cites in the UK.
鈥淟ocals and visitors alike now have a seamless and hassle-free way to explore everything the city and surrounding Highlands have to offer, without the hassle of getting to a car rental desk or forking out for multiple train tickets.鈥
The launch comes as part of Virtuo鈥檚 wider pan-European expansion, following a 鈧20 Million Series B fundraise led by Balderton Capital, Iris Capital and Raise Ventures.
The company launched in London in the summer of 2018, bringing its mobile-only rental offering to drivers in the UK for the first time.
It now has 13 locations at airports and train stations across the UK including London Heathrow, Victoria, Waterloo, King鈥檚 Cross and Stratford International, and Manchester Piccadilly.
