Partnership announcement

SIXT selects 2hire to power connected vehicle data across its rental fleet

The strategic partnership leverages embedded OEM connectivity to bring a broader portfolio of car manufacturers under a unified data layer — speeding up fleet digitization.



SIXT, the global premium mobility company, has selected 2hire, the connected vehicle platform, to power native OEM vehicle data across its rental fleet in Europe and North America. The 2hire platform brings a broad range of car manufacturers into a single, unified data layer that complements SIXT's in-house direct OEM integrations — simplifying how the company runs one of the world's largest rental operations.

Rental at SIXT's scale spans dozens of vehicle brands, each with its own APIs, data formats and telematics standards. 2hire brings a broad portfolio of car manufacturers under a single, unified data layer so that SIXT can run consistent operational logic across any connected vehicle in scope, regardless of brand. For example, by streaming accurate mileage and fuel data directly from the vehicle into its own operational systems, SIXT can enable precise and automated readings at rental check-in and check-out.

The agreement complements the OEM integrations SIXT has built directly in-house: where the operator runs its own connection to a manufacturer, 2hire extends coverage to additional brands across leading European and U.S. car makers. The integration relies on embedded OEM connectivity — with no additional onboard hardware required on supported models — and supports operational use cases from real-time vehicle status to fleet lifecycle insights.

We have built direct integrations with the world's leading car manufacturers ourselves — we know exactly how much that takes. What set 2hire apart was their speed, their reliability, and frankly the team itself: young, driven, and with a genuine appetite to push things forward. Their platform extends our OEM coverage to additional brands without friction, they have delivered on every commitment since day one, and that energy comes through in every single interaction. That combination is what makes this partnership genuinely valuable at our scale.
Georg HoessDirector Digital Fleet & Connected Mobility, SIXT
SIXT is one of the most technically capable mobility operators we work with: they have taken the time to integrate OEMs directly and they understand connected vehicle data deeply. Becoming their unifying data layer, alongside their own integrations, is exactly the role we built 2hire to play. We genuinely enjoy working with this team, and there is a lot more we want to build together.
Filippo AgostinoCEO and Co-founder, 2hire

The OEM data layer is the foundation of a wider collaboration. Driven by a shared appetite for innovation, SIXT and 2hire are already exploring further joint workstreams — including new applications of AI on top of the connected fleet — to bring greater intelligence to rental operations.
