Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in Konstanz are: Ford Galaxy 7 seater, Mercedes Vito, Peugeot 807 7 seater, Citroen C8 Tdi, Citroen Picasso, Mercedes Viano 8 Seater and others.
Standard capacity of a minivan in Germany is up to 9 people (8+1 formula), traditionally providing seven or eight passenger seats. The capacity of a minibus may vary from 9 to 15 people.
Please note, that in order to rent in Germany a vehicle with capacity which exceeds 8 passengers, you would need a driving license of the corresponding category.
Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Konstanz.
Before leaving the parking garage in Konstanz, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.

In case of a car accident the local police will be involved in the investigation only indirectly. Most of the work is done by employees of insurance companies.
