Hertz Customer
We had a larger than typical car for 16 days and paid Euro 705. We were very pleased with the car and the price. It was the oversized Mini brand car and automatic. They did charge us a E175 vehicle upgrade fee because the rental agent decided we needed it with our two large suitcases. That’s included in our total fee. We fueled up before returning. Very reasonable. We put a lot of miles on that car too.
Hertz Customer
(Translated by Google) Very warm welcome and very good service. I would like to greatly thank the employee who was of great help and who found me a car quickly (without an initial reservation) and who was above all very kind. (Original) Très bon accueil et très bon service. Je remercie grandement le collaborateur qui a été d’une grande aide et qui m’a trouvé une voiture rapidement (sans réservation initiale) et qui a surtout été d’une grande gentillesse.

Got my backpack stolen out of the rental car at the Hertz Parking at Terminal 2 when distracted by one person and a second person stole the backpack out of the car. So, be careful and do not trust anybody at BCN airport.

At the time of rental, the driver must present a valid national driver's license which has been held for at least 1 year.
Exceptions:
* For the following vehicle groups you must present a valid national driver's licence held for at least 2 years:
(G5) Maserati Levante 4x4 - GPS (K) BMW 5 Series or similar (K6) Mercedes E-Class or similar (L) BMW 7 Series (L5) BMW 7 Series or similar (L6) Mercedes CLS or similar (Q6) BMW 4 Series or similar (S) BMW X5 (S5) Volvo XC90 (S6) BMW X5 or similar (Y) Volvo XC60 or similar (Z5) Mercedes V Class |
* To rent the following vehicle groups you must present a valid national driver's licence held for at least 3 years:
(N1) Jaguar E-PACE (P1) Range Rover Evoque (R5) Ford Mustang (U5) Range Rover Vogue or similar |
For all Non-European Union renters, it is highly recommended your national driver's license must be accompanied by an International Driving Permit (IDP). An IDP translates the national license into various languages and is on its own, without the national license, not acceptable. If a license issued outside the European Union cannot be read or understood, then it is not acceptable, unless accompanied by a translation from the official source, e. g. embassy headed paper. This includes licenses which are only partly translated, Japanese and all Arabic licenses etc.
Driver's licences issued by the People's Republic of China/ Japan/ Korea may be accepted provided you present an official Hertz Certification form. Hertz China/ Japan/ Korea will issue this form on Hertz notepaper and will incorporate the Hertz China/ Japan/ Korea Corporate seal. A scanned copy of the original licence will appear on the Certification form. The Certification form is valid until the expiry date of the Driver's Licence. Both the Certification and the original licence (with an International Driving Permit strongly recommended by Police authorities in Europe) MUST be produced at the time of rental.
If you hold a Driver's Licence issued in Vietnam, you need to present the original licence together with an authorised translation issued by the Vietnamese Ministry of Transport. If both documents are presented at time of rental these licences are acceptable worldwide.
Please also refer to "Passport/Identity Card Information”.
Extra day is charged after 29 minutes over 24 hour rental period.

Petrol / Diesel vehicles:
If you do not take our Fuel Purchase Option (FPO) – see Fuel Policy for details - and do not return the vehicle with a full tank of fuel, we will fill the tank for you and charge you for the costs we incur and the service we provide in doing so.
Our costs include purchasing, storing and managing our own fuel supplies, or refilling the tank off site, plus manpower and administration costs. Our service, of course, saves you from taking the time to find a local fuel station and refilling the vehicle yourself.
The refuelling charge for your rental will be calculated as follows:
1.2 x weekly pump price taken from the EU Commission Energy website plus €19.97 (including tax) service charge.
We will show the actual cost of refuelling on your rental agreement when you pick up your vehicle.
Electric vehicles:
Hertz will record the vehicle battery charge at the start of the rental. Failure to return the vehicle in the same state of charge as at pick-up will result in a recharging fee per missing kWh.
Please see recharging policy
