Hired car insurance

Retention contracts are slightly cheaper, but they result in undesirable additional costs in the event of an accident. Insurance without excess contribute to calculable costs with optimal security and protect against unpleasant surprises.

The insurance chosen for the hired car is a personalized variant that provides you as the contractual partner and driver with individual protection. However, if a travel companion becomes active as a second driver, you must ensure adequate insurance cover. Upon request, the car hire company enters an additional driver in the rental contract and thus extends the protection to this driver.
