Rental tip: which rental car is right for me?

You are going to rent a car. Perhaps for the first time. Exciting! Renting a car is similar to buying a car in many ways. Often the same considerations play a role. Ask yourself the following when you are going to rent a car.

How many passengers/luggage are going?

Do you only need a car for daily shopping and/or to pick up the kids from school? Then a small carAs the number of passengers and possibly luggage increases, you will need a larger car, for example a compact car of small middle class. These offer space for one extra passenger on the back seat and have considerably more luggage space. For extra luggage space you can also rent a station wagon.

For six or more passengers (including the driver), it is best to use a rent a passenger busYou can drive it 'normally' with your car driving license (driving license B) and, depending on the type, it offers space for a maximum of 6 or 9 people (including the driver) and their luggage.

Instead of one bus you can of course also rent two smaller cars. In terms of costs that does not make much difference in most cases. Although you do need two drivers of course.

Manual or automatic?

Concerning the choice of a manual or automatic car, we advise you to choose what you are used to. Is your own car an automatic? Then rent an automatic. Although the switch to a manual car is usually quite smooth; after all, most people learned to drive in a manual car. Most people who are used to a manual car, on the other hand, have to get used to an automatic.

What comfort do I want?

Choosing a rental car is not just based on rational considerations. Emotions also play a role. Perhaps you drive a small car in everyday life and want to experience what it is like to drive a compact or mid-range car. Or perhaps you are going to drive further in your rental car than you normally do in your own car and therefore have higher demands on the comfort offered or, for example, the consumption. Incidentally, all our passenger cars and passenger buses equipped with air conditioning.
