Question 3

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Why is a Credit Card required for car rental in Caen?

Major credit cards like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover are accepted for this purpose. The credit card must be in the primary driver's name to ensure financial responsibility for the vehicle. While some locations may accept debit cards, they often require additional documentation or a credit check. For a hassle-free rental experience, it's advisable to use a major credit card like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover.
