DCC means you should have a choice and chose (or had chosen for you) card currency, multi currency conversion involves a merchant representing you've chosen to deal in card currency all along.
Hard to tell the difference when you didn't sign the actual slip (I assume this is a card swipe situation where some back office did the billing)
Avis buries the currency conversion authorization/agreement in the fine print of the rental contract. I suspect that the other car rental companies operating in Europe do the same.
