Car rental in Israel - additional expenses
If you wish to rent a car in Israel and you are on a rather tight budget, then you will want to know exactly how much that is going to cost you and how you can keep these expenses as low as possible. Luckily for you, there are very many Israel car rental deals which are designed to fit into the most modest of budgets and finding them is not quite as difficult as you might be thinking. That is if you know where to look and what to look for. However, it is important to point out that most of the best car rental Israel companies are not necessarily going to be the cheapest ones and you might have to lower your standards a little if you are looking for very cheap car rental in Israel. Besides the fixed daily prices for renting the cars, however, there are also some other costs that you will have to incur while you use the vehicle and it is vital that you understand these 'hidden' costs if you want to keep your car rental budget in check.
Fuel expenditure on rented vehicles
Once you rent a car in Israel, and in most other parts of the world really, the ownership of the car is temporarily transferred to you along with all the responsibilities that come with such ownership. The car rental companies will expect you to return the car in the same condition that you took it, meaning that you will have to cover the maintenance costs of the car. In most cases, you will find that the fuel tank has enough to start you off and you should know that this fuel is not free. At the end of your rental period, you will be expected to return the vehicle with the tank reading the same amount of fuel as it had when you found it. It is generally advisable to return the car with a full fuel tank in order to avoid any misunderstandings. Make sure that you factor this cost of fuel and car maintenance to your budget.
