Agustín García, president of the Spanish Association of Vehicle Renting, assesses the data: "After a month of August with surprising results, in September renting registrations have fallen compared to the accumulated 2017; however, the important thing is the overall evolution and, in this sense, the progress of renting continues to be very positive. With three months to go, we maintain the forecast of double-digit growth. It is also important to highlight the fact that leasing has a weight of 32.50% in the corporate channel, where it recorded an accumulated increase of 17.51%."
