Rental cost by car class
The rate for the first day of rental. The spread within a class is the gap between the base car and a newer or more powerful one: among SUVs we have both a practical crossover and a Range Rover Sport.

The table shows the lowest rate in the fleet for each period. For a specific car, the final price is shown on its card in the rental catalogue.
What the price already covers
The catalogue price is not a bare rate: some costs that are charged separately elsewhere are already inside ours.
- mandatory insurance and a technically sound car;
- preparation for handover — the car is clean and fuelled;
- up to 200 km per day (counted cumulatively on multi-day rentals);
- round-the-clock phone support for the whole rental period.
What is paid separately
Everything below is optional or situational. We quote the amounts at booking and write them into the contract, so there are no surprises at the end.
- the refundable deposit — not a cost but a contractual guarantee, returned within ten days after the car is handed back;
- delivery of the car to the airport, a hotel or an address;
- the unlimited-mileage option and any distance above the included limit;
- additional CASCO insurance, a personal driver, driving abroad.
How to rent for less
A few things that genuinely reduce the final amount without compromising on the car.
- book for longer: the difference between two days and two weeks is significant, the rate drops in steps;
- look at neighbouring classes: a wagon or a liftback often costs the same as a sedan but has a bigger boot;
- collect the car at our office on str. Uzinelor 88 if your route allows — delivery to an address is charged separately.

No. The deposit is refundable: it guarantees that the contract terms are met and is returned within ten days after the car is handed back, provided there is no damage or serious breach.
Which currency is the rental calculated in?
All settlements are in Moldovan lei. Prices on the site can be switched to another currency for reference, but the contract and payment are in lei.
Is there a mileage limit and what does removing it cost?
200 km per day is included, counted cumulatively on multi-day rentals. An unlimited-mileage option can be added — the cost depends on the car and the period and is quoted at booking.
Is insurance included in the price?
Mandatory insurance and the technical condition of the car are included. CASCO is added separately: without it, the driver is liable in case of an accident.
