Silvercar by Audi is helping locals feel at ease when it comes to traveling again with its latest contactless car delivery service. The service is an extension of Audi dealerships which make car renting an enjoyable experience. My rental was from the Audi Seattle dealership (located at 4701 11th Ave NE).
Over the weekend, I took the Silvercar by Audi service for a few days and rented out the Audi Q5.
The service was quite remarkable from start to finish and best of all, everything was contactless which put all the worries and inconvenience out of the picture. Upon reservation, we selected the drop off and pick up location for the service. I conveniently had the Silvercar staff drop the 2020 Audi Q5 right in my driveway. We did a quick walkthrough around the vehicle and made sure key features were well explained prior to the handoff. Once that was done, the Silvercar staff scanned a barcode, I got the keys and we were underway.
Silvercar remains committed to upholding the highest standards of cleanliness with a published 19-step vehicle cleaning process and face covering requirements for all employees at all locations.
There are various classes you can choose from depending on your needs, if you’re an individual, a couple or a family. Silvercar also offers free WiFi and Peg Perego car seats to cater to families taking the now popular “schoolcations” with children participating in virtual learning and remote workers on the go, giving them flexibility in when they travel.
We took the Audi and drove around town to a few places we wanted to check out that we didn’t get to. The first was Carpinito Brothers Farm in Kent to pick out some pumpkins and fresh corn. The truck on the Q5 Audi is super spacious so we were able to get a decent amount and safety stow them away. They changed up the flow this year, usually you can park and walk up to the pumpkin patch, but now you have to pay $5 per person, but that can go towards credit to purchasing your pumpkin.
After we dropped the pumpkins off, we visited one of our favorite Eastside restaurants called Ascend Prime Steak & Sushi located in downtown Bellevue. The restaurant offers unprecedented views and food that elevates the palate.
