Electric & Hybrid Car Hire

Like them or not, Electric & Hybrid vehicles look like they are here to stay. It was only a matter of time before rental companies stepped up to the plate, We now offer Electric & Hybrid Car Hire in 16 countries around the world and this will increase rapidly over the coming 12 months.

It is predicted that the number of Electric Vehicle charge points will out-weigh the number of petrol filling stations by the summer of 2020. In the UK only, registrations of Electric Vehicles have risen by a huge 2,400% since 2013 and at that growth rate, some sources believe that we will have no petrol or diesel vehicles on the road in 2030.

If you are looking to hire a vehicle and would like to try one for yourself then please get in touch. You can get a quote online using our booking engine above or simply contact our reservations team who will answer any questions you may have.

Car Booking in Scotland

I now live in Australia but travel back to Scotland, my home every year I can, which means hiring a car each time. Having use different hire companies and hiring agencies over the last 30 years, I can truthfully say that Indigo stands out above them all for both value for money and service.I have no problem and do refer Indigo to all my friends when traveling.

Dublin Airport car rental via Easirent

Very helpful staff, Good quality vehicle and a very easy to use process. Only very small criticism was finding the shuttle bus, a phone call is required to find out you need to go to Zone 18, there are signposts telling you the direction to Zone 18 but no actual signs showing where Zone 18 actually is, but even with this very small detail it was a relatively easy process start to finish

Conor for the win

Dear Indigo Few weeks ago I booked car from Sixt through Indigo. Every time I was talking to any operator in sixt company I was misinformed and misguided. Today I spoke with Conor who works for Indigo. He was extremely kind and professional. In 1 hour he helped me more than 6 different operators within 3 weeks of talking to sixt. Thank You Conor for Your calm, kindness and exceptional professionalism. I would recommend

Índigo saved my bacon!

It was such a relief to hear about Indigo, I had a car hire booking with another company, who only took credit cards and charged an insane security deposit. With Indigo I was able to speak to someone over the phone and get it all sorted within 20 minutes! Thank you Sam, you were very helpful and made the process so easy and transparent.

Do I need to pass a credit check if using my debit card to hire?

If renting a car in the UK and you are a UK resident most of the large multinational suppliers will carry out an electronic address check to ensure you have strong enough links to the address provided. However most of the suppliers with the exception of 1 or 2, still carry out the same checks so not unique to when you need to hire via a debit card. Key indicator are if you are named on the Electoral Register and named on the council tax bill.

When renting a car overseas as an inbound client our suppliers do not carry out any checks.

Do I need to leave a deposit if hiring with a debit card?

Most suppliers do require a security deposit when renting a car, in the UK we have a range of options. The best value suppliers would request a £200.00 – £300.00 deposit. However we do have selected locations where our supplier does not require any deposit, so a full zero deposit.

In Europe we have options where you can just leave a fuel deposit of 110 EUR, and there is no mandatory requirement to take the Super Cover as this can be the case with some of the smaller budget suppliers.
