Long-term hire or car-sharing:
A mobility solution for your needs

Different situations require different mobility solutions. Investing lots of money to own a car that you or your employees might not even drive regularly isn’t very smart from a business perspective. And yet, you still need to be mobile and flexible to keep up with your business responsibilities. Both long-term hire and care sharing offer a way out of this dilemma.

Car-sharing is a modern, cost-efficient way of driving. Pay as you go with set hourly or daily rates. Perfect for the occasional drive. However, if you need a car even just semi-regularly, these costs can add up quickly. Long-term hire affords you a high level of flexibility with plannable costs and full-service packages with no hidden or added costs that exceed your budget.

Do you need a travel solution for short business travels or for attending a company event? Car-sharing is a great choice for short-term driving in a predictable location. For more flexibility long-term hire lets you keep your car as long as you need and return it whenever you want at one of our many locations in the country and worldwide. Book it today, drive off tomorrow. A turnaround time to rival car-sharing with the added promise that your car will be available for you when you need it, where you need it.

A guide to the benefits and differences
of long-term hire and leasing

Businesses need the ability to react to changes, be they seasonal, market-related or due to employee fluctuation. The same goes for business mobility solutions. If your business allows you to predict long time frames accurately, a traditional car lease might be a good choice for you. For a little extra flexibility to meet economic downturns or additional demand a long-term hire might be your way to go.

Instead of committing to a fixed-term lease agreement with little to no wiggle room hiring your business car long term with SIXT lets you switch or upgrade your hire at the drop of a hat. Want to drive a comfortable SUV in the winter but prefer a sporty convertible during the warmer summer months? Switching between car categories is no problem. Don’t need a car at all at the moment? Return it to one of our many locations at your convenience without worrying about the residual amount or cancellation fees.

Whether you’re a business owner who likes to switch it up from time to time or you want to add to your company car pool without the commitment or investment of buying a whole fleet, long-term hire lets you do that and more. Make your employees happy and upgrade your fleet to the newest models available or keep your executive favourite as long as you like. No additional costs either way.

Traditional car leasing is a good way to predict your monthly expenses – to a certain extent. In addition to your monthly lease, you need to budget for additional maintenance costs as well as for taxes and insurance. If you’re a paperwork whizz this won’t be any trouble for you. If you prefer a less hands-on approach to your business mobility a full-service solution like long-term hire is just right for you. Your monthly fee with a SIXT car hire includes everything except petrol. Neat, isn’t it?
