The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Gothenburg borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Gothenburg might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Gothenburg!
Rental process FAQ
Drivers must always have the driving license, as well as the vehicle certificate. The absence of these documents is considered a serious violation. Drivers should also consider keeping insurance (“green card”) handy.
On local gas stations, drivers can select from unleaded petrol (Blyfri 95 and Blyfri 98), or choose in favor of diesel fuel. There is also octane gasoline (Premium 98 and Medium 96) at local petrol stations. Drivers, who prefer this type of fuel, should look for red pump columns at petrol stations.
A large part of petrol stations works from 7:00 to 19:00 - 20:00 on weekdays. Petrol stations that work around the clock can be found on highways. There are also automated petrol stations in Sweden. They accept payments in paper money only. It is worth keeping in mind that diesel fuel is extremely rare at automated petrol stations.
