The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Brazil are: Renault Megane Cabriolet, Chrysler Sebring Convertible, Ford Mustang Convertible and VW Eos Convertible.
At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Porto Alegre require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.
We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in Brazil is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Porto Alegre and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.
In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.
When parking a cabriolet in Porto Alegre, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Motorcycles and bicycles always have separate parking lots. Quite often, they are located close to roads. Of course, cars are prohibited to park there. The police or CET staff members will surely not leave the violation unnoticed.
On some streets, you may see large white signs with a red cross and the letter “Eâ€. This means that parking a car on this street is prohibited. The sign may also contain additional information. Quite often it is prohibited to park only from 7:00am to 7:00pm, and only on weekdays.
If a parking lot has a sign with the “azul†mark, this means that only holders of a special card are allowed to use it. You can purchase this parking card in any newspaper or tobacco shop. The cost of the card depends on the number of parking hours on its account.
