3. Rental Period
Duration: The minimum rental period is 1 day. One rental day equals 24 hours from the start of the rental.

Coverage: All rates include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection (TP), reducing the renter’s liability to the deductible stated in the rental agreement. Insurance is valid only if the rental terms are followed and the incident is officially reported to the police.
