Renting an electric vehicle

2 min read
QUICK ANSWER

Confirm the exact vehicle, battery version and return charge requirement in the rental agreement before collection. Do not apply one example vehicle’s range to every rental.

What to know

At collection, check charge level, warnings, charging cable and port. If a card or app is included, ask how charges are billed and what must be returned.

Planning and usage

Try your first charging session before the battery is very low. Save support, roadside assistance and nearby backup stations in advance.

Final checks

Allow time for charging before return. Treat station session fees and rental company undercharge fees as separate costs.
