Fuel Policy

These conditions are not applicable in Canary islands
Should I bring the vehicle back with a full tank of fuel?
Yes. The vehicle will normally be supplied with a full tank of fuel. You must return it to us with the same amount of fuel it had in it when you picked it up, usually a full tank as shown on the factory installed fuel gauge. We recommend you fill up as close to the return location as you can on the return date, and keep the receipt to show us. If you do not return the vehicle with a full tank and you can not show us a receipt for fuel we will charge you.
Fuel Options
I plan to travel more than 120 kilometres, and want peace of mind, do you have a fuel option for me?
Yes, with Fuel Up Front you pay for a full tank of fuel, based on the manufacturers stated fuel tank capacity for your vehicle plus our costs of refuelling the vehicle for you. Then you just return the vehicle with whatevers left in the tank (even if it is virtually empty) so long as the engine still runs.*
*The above is not applicable to the Canary Islands, where Full to Full will be available, though only at our facilities or via the booking centre by calling (+34) 902 135 331, at any point prior to the withdrawal of the vehicle. If you have chosen this option, you will receive the vehicle with a full fuel tank and will be obliged to return it to the agreed location with a full fuel tank.
How do I calculate the cost of Fuel Up Front?
Depending on where you are renting, we charge the average fuel price at the start of your rental period as stated on this EU fuel index: http://ec.europa.eu/energy/observatory/oil/bulletin_en.htm However, you do not get a refund for any fuel you do not use.
Can I get Fuel up Front at any time?
No, if you want to take advantage of Fuel Up Front, you must ask for it during the booking process or when you pick up the vehicle.
I plan to travel less than 120 kilometres, do I still need to fill up?
Yes, often the fuel gauges stills look full so we ask you to fill up the tank near to the return location and show us a copy of the receipt. If you do not have time to fill up the tank, or can not show us a receipt, we will apply EZ Fuel to cover our costs of refuelling the vehicle for you.*
*This is not applicable to the Canary Islands, where Express Fuel will be available. This option will be applied by default if the hire is contracted online and you will receive the vehicle with a full fuel tank. A non-refundable commission of €19.00 shall be paid, which will be charged separately from the cost of the vehicle hire.
How much is EZ Fuel?
Depending on where you are renting, you pay of fixed fee of between 16.94 € and 18.00 €.
What are my options if I do not return the vehicle full and have not bought Fuel up Front?
Pay on Return will apply if you have driven more than 120 kilometres and:
• Do not buy Fuel Up Front
• Do not return the vehicle with a full tank
How do I calculate the cost of Pay on Return?
You pay for fuel based on the factory installed fuel gauge rounded down to the nearest eighth (1/8) of a tank. This is based on the manufacturers stated fuel tank capacity.
We charge the average fuel price at the end of the rental period for Spain as stated on this EU fuel index: http://ec.europa.eu/energy/observatory/oil/bulletin_en.htm plus a refuelling charge of between 27.59 Euro and 41.00 Euro. The price per litre will be stated on your rental agreement plus a processing fee of 27.59 €. This charge covers our cost of driving to the nearest petrol station at short notice, and potentially delaying the next customers rental.
What if I rent a car in the Canary Islands?
You may choose between the following fuel services:
1. Express Service:
This option applies by default if you book online. The vehicle will be given with a full tank of fuel, allowing the direct return without refueling, nor waiting for fuel level verifications, both at the time of delivery or at the time of the return. Furthermore the value of the fuel left in the tank will be refunded at the time of its return. If do not want this fuel option, you will need to express it in our facilities when you come to pick up the vehicle.
The price of the Express Service is an extra and independent charge to the fee you paid for the rental of the vehicle. This extra charge is composed by:
The cost of fuel will be the average price per liter of fuel in the Canary Islands, i.e. the average of the cheapest and the most expensive prices offered by fuel stations in the Canary Islands at the time of hiring this service, according the rates published by the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism at http://geoportal.mityc.es/hidrocarburos/eess/.
Fuel costs will, therefore, be equivalent to the amount obtained after multiplying the average price per liter of fuel in the Canary Islands at the time of the rental by the number of liters of the fuel tank capacity of the vehicle.
The sum to be refunded upon return of the vehicle is calculated based on the same criteria: the result of multiplying the average price per liter of fuel in the Canary Islands, by the eights of a tank stated in the vehicles indicator at the time of its return.
Express Fuel Service fee: 19.00 € including taxes. This charge will not be reimbursed.
Note that if you choose online booking, the day you collect the vehicle at our facilities, the payment of the fuel and the Express Fuel Service fee will be required.
