Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in Naples 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 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 Naples.
Before leaving the parking garage in Naples, 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
Local residents traditionally enjoy riding two-wheeled types of vehicles. Bikers are also considered participants of traffic, and they have the same rights as motorists. There are special parking lots for bicycles, mopeds and bikes. Cars cannot be parked there.
Wrong parking will also result in a fine from 30 to 150 euro. Do not leave your car in the wrong place, even for a short time. This will be enough for a police officer to issue a fine for you. If your car prevents street cleaning or road repairs, it can be brought to a fine-parking.
Despite the fact that local drivers are considered to be quite aggressive and they often exceed the speed limit, they know the traffic regulations very well and have an extremely negative opinion on blatant violators. If a driver ignores the rules and drives in the extreme left lane, local drivers will surely "sit on his tail" and will dazzle the violator with distant lights until he gives up and returns to the right lane.
