Car hire - simple, easy, and affordable prices

We understand the importance of choosing the right pick-up location. With that said, Bookingauto strives to provide customers with the opportunity to collect a car from all desired locations in Heidelberg, including the city centre, main railway stations, and the nearest airports. Thanks to such a large selection of rental points, our clients can book a car in Heidelberg and pick it up at a convenient place for them.

Options and possibilities:

We take into account the preferences of our customers and look for a car that fits into the right category. For example, those who come to Heidelberg on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible Chevrolet Camaro from us, starting at €78 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Heidelberg. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Mercedes V-Class might be best - from €43 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like Mercedes E for €79 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Ford Fiesta for just €16 per day.

How to minimize costs:

In order to avoid paying too much, plan to pick up the car and return it at the same time. Car rental fees are set for the entire rental day. Therefore, if you return the car after 25 hours, the payment will be calculated as 48 hours, or two full days. Likewise, if you use your rental car for more than 72 hours, you will pay for 96 hours of rent.

Approximate daily prices in Heidelberg

Car rental cost by month

The highest demand for car rental in Heidelberg occurs during the high tourist season - summer.

On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.

For example, in July, the average price for the popular model Audi A4 in Heidelberg is €28 per day.

In autumn, the same car costs about €14 per day.

Highest summer price for convertibles. For example, a Chevrolet Camaro is offered at €78 per day.

Among the economy classes, the most popular model in Heidelberg is the Ford Fiesta. The rental price for such a car starts from €16 per day from sixt.

Business class car rental in high season is also more expensive. For example, renting a Mercedes E costs about €79 per day.

With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a Renault Kaptur at this time can be rented for just €31 per day.

Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Heidelberg, you can easily rent a Porsche Cayenne to travel in style through the streets of the beautiful city. Rest assured that the memories of these drives will linger in your imagination for a long time.
