Uber has a platform for selling journeys, whereas car rental companies are geared up to selling travel for a period of time. The former makes a lot more sense for self driving cars.
It will be easier for Uber to buy a fleet of self driving cars and replace their drivers than it will be for a car rental company to develop a platform for a new business model.

Uber does have an advantage in that they are already around and have that market share. Plus they have the system built and can start focusing on adding nice to have features and really polishing the experience.
