Planning to rent a car this summer? You might not find one. A supply shortage is coming that is without precedent. "It's all coming together in the worst storm possible," said Ivan Drury of Edmunds.com.
Last year, rental car companies reported shrinking their fleets drastically, selling hundreds of thousands of cars to stay afloat when the pandemic killed demand. Now, industry experts say demand is booming back. But the cars to meet it just won't be there.
