Understanding Rental Costs by Car Class

Exploring the vibrant city of Barcelona becomes a breeze with the right car rental. The rates, however, can vary significantly based on the car class you choose. Budget-friendly travelers often opt for the economy class, such as the Ford Fiesta, which can start from as low as €25 per day. These vehicles offer great value for short city trips and easy parking.

For a bit more comfort and style, the compact class, including models like the Volkswagen Golf, is a preferred choice. Rates for these cars typically begin at around €35 per day, offering a balance between affordability and additional space.

Travelers looking for a blend of luxury and performance might lean towards the premium class. Cars like the BMW 3 Series elevate the driving experience, with rates starting from €60 per day. These vehicles are perfect for those desiring a more refined ride around Barcelona and its surroundings.

Lastly, for groups or families, the SUV class offers the most space and comfort. A popular option is the Toyota RAV4, with rental rates beginning at €50 per day, ensuring everyone travels in comfort without compromising on luggage space.

Available payment options

For seamless payment of your booking, we accept a range of credit cards, including MasterCard, Visa, Maestro, and American Express. Important Notice: When collecting your hired car, please be prepared to present a credit card as debit cards may not be accepted for such transactions. It's always best to consult the 'Payment Methods' section for detailed instructions well before your pick-up date.

Deposit and credit card information

Occasionally, a rental provider may specify that a credit card is necessary to secure a booking. If you find yourself without one, a quick check of your debit card at www.bindb.com could provide a solution.
