Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in Crotone are: Citroen Jumper 8 seater, Mercedes Viano 8 Seater, Ford Galaxy 7 seater, Peugeot 807 7 seater, Citroen Picasso, Mercedes Vito and others.
Standard capacity of a minivan in Italy 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 Italy 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 Crotone.
Before leaving the parking garage in Crotone, 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.

Popular questions on rental process
Small fines can be paid directly to a police officer right on the road. The officer must give a receipt to the violator. In no case should violators offer a bribe to the police. In this case your fine may increase in many times. In order to pay off a large fine, one should go to one of the branches of the bank.
Drivers can calculate the cost of toll motorways by themselves. There is a scoreboard at the entrance of each highway. The scoreboard indicates the “unit rate” (the price per 1 km). Simply multiply the unit rate by the number of kilometers passed, and add 20% (VAT) to the resulting amount.
The unit rate is not constant and it depends on the type of a road, its management company and the type of a vehicle. The unit rate of a flat highway for cars can be approximately 0.06 - 0.07 euro.
