Small details can make driving even easier – here are some helpful tips to make your experience with your rental vehicle more comfortable.

 

Finding the fuel cap: Check the fuel gauge on your dashboard – the small arrow next to the symbol indicates which side the fuel cap is on.

 

Transmission and driving modes: Many automatic vehicles offer additional driving modes like Eco or Sport, which you can use depending on your needs.

 

Infotainment & connectivity: Many vehicles offer Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay / Android Auto, and USB ports – connect your device for navigation, music, or calls.

 

Finding charging stations: Electric vehicles often display compatible charging stations directly in the navigation system or via the SIXT app.

 

Regenerative braking: Electric and hybrid vehicles recharge the battery when braking or going downhill – gentle braking can help increase your range.

 

Checking charging history: Many vehicles show when and for how long they were last charged – especially useful for planning longer trips.
