Travel smarter with Avis
Choose from our range of technology options
Stay on track during any Avis road trip: Mobile Wi-Fi allows you to enjoy the freedom of mobile connectivity in or out of your hire car while our nifty GPS devices will help you find your way no matter how intrepid your adventure.
Or, when renting from certain key locations, you can cover all of your technology needs, and get double the data of our Wi-Fi devices, with our new all in one solution - Avis Travel Companion Tablet.

Travelling for business?
Turn your hire car into a mobile office, staying in touch with HQ and your clients on the go. Take a break to answer emails, send sizeable presentations or join a video conference.
Driving with kids in tow?
Keep the little ones entertained on long journeys with cartoons streamed onto a tablet or laptop; older children can stay tuned with their Snapchat and Instagram feeds, stream music, watch videos or play online games.
GPS
Getting lost in the great outdoors can be a stressful experience, especially when time is in short supply. Whether you're on home turf or touring abroad, we can help you along the way with quality portable sat nav devices offering turn-by-turn instructions.
