Detailed FAQ on the rental process
Two-wheeled types of transport are very popular with local residents. Virtually every local resident has a scooter or at least a bike in his garage. The two-wheeled transport also makes up a significant part of traffic on local roads, and this fact also deserves a special attention from the side of motorists.
Maintaining a "big" car is difficult in Italy, partly because the prices on petrol remain high in the country. Purchasing a large amount of petrol for big cars is the prerogative of wealthy car owners only. However, among local residents there are very few people who want to spend large sums to refuel their cars.
Audi and Volkswagen are particularly respected by locals. Mercedes and Opel branded cars are also widespread in the streets of Italian cities. Citroen and Renault are slightly less common, and it’s really rare to see a Japanese car in the streets of Italy. “Luxury” cars can often be seen in big resorts, but they are very rare in ordinary towns.
