SIXT car rental in Germany
Germany is well known for its driving culture, of which SIXT is a big part, with a century-plus history. Our experience has refined our service, so we can give you access to great rates on top cars.
At every SIXT branch, you’ll find the best car for Germany, whether that’s a compact car for the city or a roomy and powerful SUV for the countryside.
SIXT understands that car rentals do more than take you from A to B. We can ensure you’ll enjoy both your stay and your rental car.
Driving Tips for Germany
- If you need to change your reservation, you can find all of the information you need with SIXT’s online help center, and SIXT offers conveniences like one way rentals in Germany.
- If you are not accustomed to standard driving transmission, be sure to reserve a vehicle with automatic transmission in advance to ensure streamlined driving.
- Germans drive on the right-hand side of the road. Familiarize yourself with the meaning of road sign symbols, which may be different from your home country, and other driving customs in Germany before you head out.
- In Germany, right turns at red lights are not permitted unless there is a green right turn arrow indicating it is allowed.
- Obey speed limits, which are 50 km/h (31 mph) in cities and 100 km/h (62 mph) in rural areas. The Autobahn (highway system) has no speed limit, but you should still exercise caution, as it is regulated to keep drivers safe from reckless driving and speeding according to road conditions.
- Keep right except to pass. If someone flashes their high beam lights behind you, it means they want you to move over.
Best places to visit in and around Germany
- With a rental car from SIXT, you’ll be able to explore a top German road trip destinations, like the Bavarian countryside, known for its pristine landscape and clean air. A car allows you to easily enjoy medieval castles, historic churches, the best charming small towns, and the striking Bavarian Alps.
- Munich, the capital and largest city in Bavaria, is a fascinating place to visit in Germany, known for historic sites like Asamkirche and Marienplatz and modern architecture at the BMW Museum. Munich also offers an unrivaled tavern scene and many traditional German beer festivals, as well as vast urban parks like the English Garden.
- When driving in Germany, Berlin is always a top destination. World class museums, like Pergamonmuseum and Neues Museum, join historic landmarks like the Memorial of the Berlin Wall, in a city that melds history with modernity and artistic culture.

Good experience. Picked up vehicle that I reserved online. No problems. It was a moving van - I had to go get someone to show me how the lift gate worked, but someone was able to help me promptly. I did pre-check in, but still had to wait in line. Staff were nice at both check in and return. All documents pertaining to rental received in my email with no surprises. They even reimbursed me for the ad blu I had to buy (I drove 495 km, so it was a lot). I picked up the vehicle by taking the train to the location. Very easy access.
