Question 8

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.

However, if these conditions don't apply to you, purchasing additional insurance is advisable. You can choose from options such as Excess Fee Insurance during the booking process on our website, or Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the rental counter to ensure comprehensive protection.
