Moreover, Switzerland is known for its environmental consciousness, and fuel prices can be relatively high. Opting for a Lucerne car rental with good fuel efficiency can help save on fuel costs and minimize environmental impact.

7.6 Good
Mar 2018
Pros:
the car that we received was like new, fuel efficient, and fun to drive.Cons:
We were not told upfront what the underage fee (<25yr old) would be. =129.01 SF We were charged for winter tires, in march, even though there wasn't any snow on the road (including up at the ski resorts). =32.41 And we were charged $147.84 for fueling even though we only used half a tank. This seems extremely excessive. In all, the price of our rental more than doubled and we did not find this out until after the trip. None of these excess fees were explained at the time of pick up (the contract was written in german and therefore an employee explained the details of the contract to me). I find this ridiculous, and I will not be using this company in the future.One location in Lucerne

Pros:
Fun and zippy little car to roll through the mountains of Switzerland.Cons:
The drop off location in Zurich was nearly impossible to find, even with Google Maps. It ended up being a random parking spot in a six-floor unmarked garage. The employees working there were great, but we drove around and in the building for probably 45 minutes until we found where to drop off the car.One location in Lucerne
