Yet it seems that the N American program is not exactly the same - with the addition of "Avis First", a requirement for local residency (N America) and different qualification criteria...

When this thing first came out, I did some research and found the European Avis already had an Preferred Plus. So, I am pretty sure this is not the upcoming one. The new one will involve point accumulation of some sort. A new system is probably needed and probably is the reason for the botched rollout.
