Whether it's a move, a city trip or a trip home to your parents in the countryside - you can't avoid a car or means of transport. Because car sharing can still be expanded outside of the big cities, we have put together an overview of the best rental car offers for students.
Europcar
Europcar is one of the best car rental companies in Germany. With immediate reservation and collection, fully comprehensive insurance and regular special offers, Europcar makes many competitors look old. Of course , Europcar has a student car rental offer . Every time you book a car - only new models - you will receive a 10% student discount. In addition, Europcar also offers van deals for students with insurance cover.
AVIS
AVIS specializes primarily in the rental of vans and trucks. But you can also get car offers at AVIS with regular student specials.
If you want to complete your next move safely and, above all, cheaply, rent a van or truck with a student discount from AVIS. You can get the small van version from just €47 per day, including a daily quota of 100km.
SIXT
SIXT is also the market leader in the car rental sector - and rightly so. With the regular SIXT student specials , you can rent stylish rental cars for a whole weekend at a bargain price. There's currently a VW Golf offer: a whole weekend for just €85 with everything included. This means fully comprehensive protection, 24-hour customer service and collecting bonus miles for the next jaunt.
Starcar car rental
Even without a student tariff , Starcar impresses with very good offers and competitive prices. Where can you find a Nissan Qashqai for just €199 a week and 2,000km included? With the Starcar bonus program you can then collect stars with each of your bookings. From the third star you save 5% on every booking and from the 10th you even get the Starcar VIPCard and save 10% on the rental price. So staying loyal is worth it. By the way, you can always find offers for selected branches and vehicle groups in the sale. With a little research you can get a suitable offer - whether for a move, a city trip or a trip to the lake in a convertible. At Starcar you can rent cheaply even without a student rate.
Bookbinder
Even if you don't think of a car rental company behind this name, Buchbinder is one of the best-known rental car services in Germany. With moderate prices and interesting special offers, the company is a good address even without a student offer. You can get a really practical travel car, like the VW Golf Variant, from just €211.33 for 4,000km and for a whole week. This means you are guaranteed to get to your destination cheaply and comfortably. By the way, you can always find bargains here.
Budget car rental
While students are known to have to watch their budget, at least they can't with a student rate from Budget Car Rental . However, you will be waived a so-called young driver fee when renting. So that means, whether young or old, everyone pays the same with Budget. You can usually find the budget stations at the airports. So if you find that you don't have the time to take a bus with your heavy luggage, you can book it quickly and easily here. If you travel from city to city, however, it becomes more difficult because, as we know, the airports are always located a little outside of the city center. In terms of price, you can't go wrong with a budget, even without a student tariff.
Enterprise
Enterprise is known for being particularly accommodating and customer-friendly. It's surprising that there aren't any student tariffs to be found anywhere. On the contrary, if you are under 21, you cannot rent from Enterprise at all and if you are between 21 and 25, you will pay around €20 more than older customers. It's a bit of a shame that Enterprise didn't think more about the students. However, the prices are very affordable for everyone over 25.
Alternatives to rental cars
There are of course many ways to Rome. If you don't have a driver's license or if a rental car is too expensive despite the student offer, you have to resort to alternatives. If you prefer (and regularly) take the train, then the BahnCard for students is ideal. You save either 25 or 50 percent on the flex price and receive a student discount on the retail price. Another alternative is BlaBlaCar , a classic ride-sharing service with a special focus on students. Although ridesharing isn't for everyone, it's definitely the cheapest option compared to rental cars and trains.
Be flexible and mobile as a student - with the cheapest rental car offers.
