Question 1

What type of car is recommended for driving in Spain

Accepted Answer

In Spain, you can usually rent a variety of car types including Mini, Economy, Compact, Compact SUV, Wagon, People Carrier, Economy SUV, and Intermediate SUV. These options cater to different needs and preferences, ensuring you find the right vehicle for your trip.

Question 2

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.

Question 3

What are the most popular car brands for rent in Spain?

Accepted Answer

In Spain, the top car brands frequently chosen by renters include Toyota Aygo, Fiat Panda, Ford Focus, Nissan Juke, Kia Ceed, and Tesla. These models are popular for their dependability and comfort, whether you're planning a quick trip or an extended journey.

Question 4

What are the requirements for renting a car in Spain?

Accepted Answer

To rent a car in Spain, you must meet several key requirements. These include being at least 21 years old, presenting a valid driver’s license, and providing a major credit card (such as Visa, MasterCard, or Discover) for payment and security purposes. Additionally, proof of insurance or the option to purchase insurance coverage from the hire company may be required. Insurance options can vary by location, so it's important to verify the details with the hire company ahead of time. Be sure to review any additional documentation or requirements specific to the car hire location.

Question 5

Should I get insurance when renting a car in Spain?

Accepted Answer

When renting a car in Spain, valid insurance is required for financial protection; without it, your hire may be denied. If you already have insurance that covers international hires for your vehicle type or if your credit card offers hire insurance abroad, you might not need extra coverage. 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 hire counter to ensure comprehensive protection.

There may be an extra fee for adding additional drivers, and they must meet the same age and driving licence requirements as the primary driver. Check with the car hire company for specific terms and conditions.

Question 8
