What is electric car rental?

Electric car rental is a vehicle driven by one or more electric motors. Moreover, the electric motor can act as the only, primary or secondary way to move the wheels. Depending on this, electric cars are divided into 3 groups:

Electric car

  • It has an electric motor paired with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
  • Electric vehicle car rental allows you to expect a quiet, easy, and environment-friendly ride while saving up to 80% of total fuel cost.

Hybrid car

  • It uses an internal combustion engine (ICE) as the primary way to drive the wheels with the addition of an electric motor and a non-rechargeable battery as an auxiliary power resource.
  • The hybrid car features reduced fuel consumption along with reduced CO₂ emissions.

Plug-in hybrid

  • It allows you to drive about 50-60 km on an electric motor powered by a rechargeable li-ion battery.
  • Plug-in hybrids switch to the internal combustion engine when the battery is empty.
  • A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle provides improved fuel economy performance compared with hybrid vehicles.

Why rent electric cars?

With electric and hybrid car rental, you have many advantages over drivers of conventional cars. Here are the most significant benefits you get when renting an electric vehicle:

  • You spend 70-80% less money on fuel than if you travel in petrol- or diesel-powered vehicles.
