The vehicle will normally be supplied with a full tank of fuel. You must return it to us with the same amount of
fuel it had in it when you picked it up usually a full tank as shown on the factory-installed fuel gauge. We
recommend you fill up as close to the return location as you can on the return date, and keep the receipt to show
us. If you don't return the vehicle with a full tank and you can't show us a receipt for fuel we will charge you. Fuel Options.

I plan to travel more than 125 kilometers and want peace of mind, do you have a fuel option for me?
Yes, with Fuel Up Front you pay for a full tank of fuel, based on the manufacturer's stated fuel tank capacity for your
vehicle plus our costs of refuelling the vehicle for you. Then you just return the vehicle with whatever's left in the
tank (even if it's virtually empty) so long as the engine still runs.
How do I calculate the cost of Fuel Up Front?
Fuel Up Front is charged at the average fuel price for the LT at the start of your rental period as stated on this EU
fuel index: http://ec.europa.eu/energy/observatory/oil/bulletin_en.htm . However, you don't get a refund for any fuel
you don't use.
Can I get Fuel up Front at any time?
No, if you want to take advantage of Fuel Up Front, you must ask for it during the booking process or when you pick
up the vehicle.
I plan to travel less than 75 or 125 kilometers, do I still need to fill up?
Yes, often the fuel gauges stills look "full" so we ask you to fill up the tank near to the return location and show us a
copy of the receipt. If you don't have time to fill up the tank, or can’t show us a receipt, we will apply EZ Fuel to
cover our costs of refuelling the vehicle for you.
How much is EZ Fuel?
Depending on where you're renting, you pay a fixed fee of between EUR 12.00 and EUR 15.00.
What are my options if I don’t return the vehicle full and haven't bought Fuel up Front?
Pay on Return will apply if you have driven more than 125 kilometers and:

• Don't buy Fuel Up Front
• Don't return the vehicle with a full tank

How do I calculate the cost of Pay on Return?
You pay for fuel based on the factory-installed fuel gauge rounded down to the nearest eighth (1/8) of a tank. This is
based on the manufacturer's stated fuel tank capacity.
We charge EUR 2.90/ per litre. The price per litre will be stated on your rental agreement. This charge covers our cost of driving to the nearest petrol station at short notice, and potentially delaying the next customer's rental.

For electric vehicle only: customer must return electric vehicle with at least 70% battery charge, or the same battery level as it had at the time of vehicle pick-up to avoid battery charge. Fixed cost will be applied dependent on battery life showing on vehicle battery gauge. This is PAY ON RETURN rate. Battery charge fixed cost are: if returned with 70% or more battery left - NO CHARGE; if returned with between 11-69% battery left - fixed cost of EUR 25.00 (VAT incl.); if returned with 10% or less battery left - fixed cost of EUR 45.00 (VAT incl.).
