Society is changing and owning a car is no longer a priority for many drivers, especially young drivers. Therefore, renting may be the best alternative for many reasons.
Buying a car is an important long-term decision that can be the right one, but it can also complicate things or cause us to lose a lot of money due to the ties and obligations that it implies.
Therefore, if you are a person who does not like the idea of forcing yourself to have a single car for many years or if you are looking above all to simplify your life, the car rental for individuals it is without a doubt, the best option for you.
The advantages of car rental
We have already told you, but now we want to delve into the advantages of acquiring a car with the leasing modality. All of them are focused on facilitating and improving the experience of using a vehicle.
Flexibility
Leasing is something like a long term rental, so you’re not really binding yourself to anything. You can choose the duration of the contract. Also the mileage included in it, and which will be used to calculate the monthly fee you will pay.
This will allow you to expand your family, change your tastes, your city, your job, your life in short, without having to worry about whether your own car will adapt to your new needs.
Because, once the contract is over (several leasing companies even contemplate early cancellation), you can return to brand new car. A convertible, an SUV, an electric, a sports car… you put the limits, not your car.
No loans or entry
When you buy a car, it is most likely that you will be forced to request financing or even pay a significant down payment, since the total amount of a car owned is very high.
None of that is necessary with leasingsince you simply have to pay a monthly payment that includes the cost of using the car and all the contracted services.
Zero worries, everything included!
One of the great advantages of renting is that, as soon as you release your new car, you forget everything else. And it is that, with the renting, all this is included in the contract:
- All-risk insurance without excess
- Roadside assistance
- Maintenance and revisions
- Breakdowns and repairs
- Taxes
- tire change
No paperwork, no paperwork
When you buy a car, you have to deal with various procedures that can become quite tedious. Registration, road tax, VAT, insurance… There are many aspects to take into account that cannot be overlooked.
However, with leasing all those worries disappear. Even ITV! If you have hired a vehicle for a shorter period than necessary to carry out the inspection, you will not even have to think about it.
And if, for example, you have contracted a car for more than four years, you can include ITV coverage, and you won’t have to think about it either! The leasing company will take care of everything.
Fast and from home
The last great advantage of acquiring a car under the leasing modality is the speed with which the process occurs. When you buy a car in property, waiting times are usually several months. Even more so with the currently existing crisis of microchips and raw materials.
On the other hand, with renting, the new car is delivered to you without delays or unforeseen events, simplifying the administrative process and delivery of the vehicle to the maximum.

Is there renting for electric cars?
Yes, today you can find all kinds of vehicles available for renting. From the conventional ones with a gasoline or diesel engine, through bifuel and hybrids and even plug-in and electric hybrids.
In fact, if you’re thinking of getting into the electric mobilitythe renting modality is especially recommended for several reasons.
On the one hand, the technology associated with this type of vehicle is in full development, which is why advances in autonomy, performance, costs and benefits occur very quickly. That will make electric cars in four or five years much more advanced than the current ones.
On the other hand, switching to an electric car requires change habits and learn the best way to take advantage of it. What better than to check for yourself if you are made for an electric car than to do it without tying yourself to one of your own.
Both for the renting of electric cars and for the rest of the modalities, in Spain there are multiple renting companies and collaborators of the sector of all solvency. You can even meet many of them in the directory of the Spanish Association of renting.
