Important note regarding fuel in Spain

If you would like to rent a car in Spain, there are a few details regarding fuel that you need to be aware of prior to booking. The “full to empty” policy, offered by the majority of low-cost rental companies, means picking up a car with a full tank and returning it as empty as possible. There will be no refund for unused fuel and the price charged for the initial tank is higher than petrol station prices due to a refuelling fee. This policy is recommended to travellers who do not want or do not have time to refuel the car before returning it to the rent a car company.

The "full to full" fuel policy is still the best option for the majority of our customers. The car is provided with a full tank and you need to return the vehicle also with a full tank. On our booking engine you can see which fuel policy applies for the chosen rental.

How old do I have to be to rent a car in Spain?

Drivers in Spain must be at least 18 years of age. However, to rent a motor vehicle in Spain you must be between the ages of 21 and 75. Please note that drivers younger than 25 and older than 69 are often required to pay a surcharge for young and old drivers, respectively. This is clearly shown on our website under the info icon in the search results as well as on your rental voucher.
