About us

Who We Are

Advance® is Lebanon’s pioneering homegrown mobility brand, rooted in trust and ready for the future. Originally launched in 2001 as Advanced Car Rental, we started with 30 vehicles and one clear goal: to deliver mobility that feels personal, seamless, and safe.

Today, with a fleet of over 1,200 vehicles, decades of experience, and a Customer Satisfaction Index of 98%, we’ve become one of the most trusted names in the Lebanese mobility space. And now, we’re moving forward, as Advance®.

We are still the same company, the same team , only now, our brand reflects what we’ve already become: flexible, simple, sustainable, and driven by you.

Why We Evolved

The way people move is changing; and so are we. Car ownership is no longer a priority for many. People are choosing access over ownership, bundled solutions over hidden fees, and flexible options over rigid commitments.

This shift is exactly what we’ve embraced. Advance® is no longer just a car rental company. We’re a mobility partner!

Mission

To move people and businesses safely, while delivering service that exceeds expectations. Advance is dedicated to redefining the way people experience mobility, through innovative, sustainable, and customer-centric solutions.

Vision

To become the most trusted name in mobility; by leading with innovation, empowering choice, and setting new standards in customer- driven service.
