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 Kharkov 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 Kharkov 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 Kharkov!
Rental process FAQ
Wrong overtaking is one of the most common violations. Keep in mind that you are not allowed to make the maneuver if there is a pedestrian crossing in less than 50 meters (in the city) and less than 100 meters (outside settlements).
The concept of “overtaking” is quite special in Ukraine, and so it has a special meaning that is different from the usual one. According to local regulations, overtaking means outrunning other vehicles, which involves entering the oncoming traffic lane.
It is forbidden to stop the car closer than 10 meters before and after the pedestrian crossing, and closer than 30 meters before and after the public transport stop. Violation of these rules may result in a heavy fine.
