The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Switzerland are: BMW 3 series Cabriolet, Peugeot 206 Cabriolet, Renault Megane Cabriolet, Audi A3 Convertible, Audi A4 Convertible and BMW Z4 Roadster.
At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Geneva require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.
We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in Switzerland is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Geneva and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.
In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.
When parking a cabriolet in Geneva, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Pedestrians also have the advantage. It should be noted that not all pedestrian crossings have traffic lights. Even if there is no traffic light, cars are required to stop and wait until the road is free. You can be sure that pedestrians will certainly reward drivers with a friendly smile for their attention.
Older people and children often cross the road in the wrong place, but drivers should treat such behavior with understanding. Pensioners and children are treated with particular attention in the country. You will need to give way to them even if there is no pedestrian crossing.
There is the so-called “30-kilometer zone” in almost every city in the country. As you can guess from the name, the maximum permitted speed in this zone is 30 km/h. As a rule, such areas are located away from the city center. Drivers are always warned about such zones by special road signs.
