Car hire with an additional driver

Whether you're driving long-distance or unleashing a luxury car on the road, share the experience and feel comfortable by including an additional driver to your SIXT car hire agreement. Adding a second insured driver is easy as long as they have a valid driver's licence, are present at the time of pickup and are of the correct age to drive your chosen vehicle category. Simply select this option as an add-on under "Recommended Extras" in the booking process, and the cost will be added to the price. 

 

How to rent a car with an additional driver 

When renting your car hire from SIXT, booking an additional driver at checkout will incur only a minimal cost which is far outweighed by the convenience and reassurance that you will enjoy knowing that you can share the driving with someone else. For everything to run smoothly when hiring a car with an additional driver, the following rules apply: 

• The additional driver(s) must be present when you pick-up the vehicle 
• They must have a valid driver's licence 
• They must be of the correct age required by your chosen car hire category
