Happy Anniversary Hawaii: Here's Some New Hybrid Rental Cars

August 25, 2009 at 8:59 AM | by kjb | 0 Comments

Last week was the Aloha State’s birthday as the islands officially commemorated its fiftieth anniversary of statehood. State leaders usually downplay celebrations as some Hawaii residents aren’t too thrilled about how the island chain was admitting into the union. We don’t want to get into the debate, but there are still some who demand independence from the United States.

Although not an official birthday present—they couldn’t find that much wrapping paper—Enterprise Rent-A-Car is gifting the island with some new hybrid rental cars. The chain teamed up with Governor Linda Lingle to announce that four locations are becoming hybrid branches. There will be three on Oahu and one on Maui to answer your green car dreams during your vacation.

Travelers will be able to choose from the usual hybrid suspects, including the Toyota Prius, Honda Insight, and Honda Civic. It sounds like government officials and the suits at the rental car company are treating this announcement as one big love fest. However, anything to keep the islands a little greener is definitely cool with us, and more hybrids hopefully means less PT Cruisers.
