FAQs
Do all EV rentals include insurance coverage?
Yes, all rentals through evee come with comprehensive insurance coverage, although the liability for damages varies by vehicle type. You may also opt for evee Protect, an add-on that reduces your damage liability to $0 and offers extra coverage for issues like minor accidents, parking damage, wheel scuffs or windscreen repairs.
How do I charge the electric vehicle during my rental?
Public chargers are widely available, and you can quickly locate them using resources like PlugShare, or Google Maps which lists all charging stations in Australia. This resource also provides details on plug types, charging costs and availability.
For extra support, evee’s “charging concierge” service is available to help you plan charging stops and answer any questions you may have.
Can I have the electric car rental delivered to my location?
Yes, some hosts offer delivery services, including airport drop-offs or delivery to your preferred location. You can coordinate directly with the host to arrange delivery, which may incur an additional fee depending on the distance. Be sure to check the listing details or ask the host before booking for clarity on delivery options and any associated costs.
What happens if I have an issue during my rental?
If you experience any issues during your rental, you can contact the vehicle owner for immediate assistance. evee also offers 24/7 complimentary roadside assistance through NRMA and their national partner network, covering issues like depleted batteries, flat tyres, breakdowns and vehicle lockouts.
You simply need to call NRMA’s helpline with the vehicle registration number and inform them you’re renting via evee. Remember to keep your host updated, and for further help, evee’s customer support is available at all times.
Can I rent an electric car for long road trips?
Yes, many people choose electric car rentals for road trips. Plan ahead by mapping charging stations along your route, and take advantage of evee’s charging concierge service if needed. Electric vehicles have varying ranges, so check the car’s specifications before booking to make sure it suits your trip’s distance and needs.
How far can I drive an electric car on one charge?
Most electric vehicles on this platform have a driving range between 250 to 600 km on a full charge, but the range will depend on the model. Detailed range information is included in each car’s listing, allowing you to choose a vehicle that fits your trip’s needs.
Are electric car rentals more expensive than traditional cars?
Pricing for EV rentals can vary based on the vehicle type and host. While some EVs may be priced higher than traditional cars, they offer cost savings on fuel and a unique, eco-friendly experience. With charging often cheaper than petrol or free, renting through evee provides excellent value for those looking for a sustainable travel option.
Do I need to clean the electric car before returning it?
Renters are not required to clean the car before returning it. However, if the EV rental is returned in a heavily soiled condition, such as with mud from off-road driving or significant interior spills, a cleaning fee may apply. Check the rental agreement for any specific cleaning requirements. Some hosts may also offer a cleaning service as part of the rental which will be noted in the listing.
What range of electric vehicles is available for rent on evee?
evee offers a growing selection of electric vehicles, with more than 250 owners providing a wide variety of options.
