Many companies in Indonesia have their branches across numerous cities, requiring them to use cars to travel between cities.
With the extensive distance between those intercity branches, it is necessary to have the right car to ensure a comfortable journey.
Choosing the right car is also a key factor in ensuring that employees can focus on their jobs and that their stamina is not depleted after an exhausting journey. Furthermore, a car’s interior and entertainment features play an essential role in reducing travel fatigue and boredom.
So, what is the ideal car for intercity business trips? The answer may vary depending on the distance traveled, road surface conditions, number of passengers, gas station availability in a city, and many more.
The ideal car is not ‘one size fits all.’ A company’s diverse needs in its business trips call for an ideal solution: rent a car.

Is renting a car indeed better than buying a company car for business trips? Several factors explain why renting a car is more cost-effective, especially when companies have to purchase different car types for periodic business trips.
First, companies no longer need to handle technicalities such as car service, spare parts replacement, accident-related repairs, and even annual tax matters. All these technicalities are the rental car provider’s responsibility. That way, the companies can focus on their core business.
Second, car renting reduces a company’s operational costs because they don’t have to worry about car maintenance fees, spare parts replacement, accident-related repairs, and Vehicle Registration Certificate (STNK) extension. All they need is a budget amounting to the agreed rental value on the contract.
Third, companies can also freely and flexibly choose the car brand and type that suits their needs without considering the technicalities and car price depreciation. They can also save significantly on their vehicle procurement budget.
Finally, renting a car increases the work efficiency and effectiveness of the employees and their related units/divisions because they are not burdened with managing internal assets. As such, they can concentrate more on their primary tasks.
