For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Opel Vivaro might be best - from €77 per day.

Average prices by car class in Zurich airport

How the price changes depending on the month

The highest demand for car rental in Zurich airport 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 Mercedes C Class in Zurich airport is €34 per day.

In autumn, the same car costs about €8 per day.

In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a Audi A5 Cabrio will cost €67 per day for the duration of the vacation period.

Among budget models, the most demanded in Zurich airport is the VW Polo. The EUROPCAR company rents it out for €15 per day.

Business class car rental in high season is also more expensive. For example, renting a BMW 5 series costs about €49 per day.

With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a BMW X3 at this time can be rented for just €33 per day.

Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Zurich airport, you can easily rent a LEXUS RX 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.
