At Pingouin Car Rental, we provide a comprehensive and transparent insurance policy to protect our customers from unexpected repair costs. Our coverage is designed to be fair, reliable, and easy to understand.
This policy outlines:
Our comprehensive insurance offers broader protection than standard rental coverage, including:
Our coverage ensures a streamlined claims process with no hidden fees or excessive deductibles.
You are fully covered if you are involved in an accident that is not your fault, provided that you:
If these conditions are met, Pingouin Car Rental will cover 100% of the damages.
In certain cases, full coverage does not apply, and you may be responsible for damages. These include:
In these cases, you will be liable for repair costs based on our official damage price list.
Insurance coverage is void if the renter:
In these cases, the renter is fully responsible for all damages and related costs.
What Is Covered If You Are at Fault?
What Is Not Covered If You Are at Fault?
Repair costs for uncovered damages will be charged based on our official damage price list. All prices in that list are exclusive of 15% VAT.
If damages are not covered due to the above-mentioned points, you will be responsible for the repair costs, which will be determined based on our transparent damage pricing structure.
Your maximum financial responsibility (also known as the ‘Excess’) for uncovered damages depends on the vehicle category. The following maximum fixed amount is only payable at the end, whenever an uncovered damage is registered:
| Scenario | Our Coverage Status |
|---|---|
| Accident caused by another driver (not your fault) | ✅ Fully covered (if conditions in Section 3 are met) |
| At-fault accident (you caused the damage) | ⚠️ Partially covered (some exclusions apply; see Section 6) |
| Reckless driving, unauthorized driver, racing, or failure to report | ❌ Not covered (renter is fully liable) |
| Damage without proof (no police report, no witness, no CCTV) | ❌ Not covered |
| Damage while parked, with witness or CCTV footage | ✅ Fully covered |
| Maximum renter liability for uncovered damages | ⚠️ Based on max. liability per vehicle category (see Section 7) |
Despite most damages being covered as outlined above by our comprehensive insurance coverage policy, if you wish to reduce your financial liability to zero and do not wish to pay the excess, you may still choose to opt for our Refundable Excess Waiver, detailed in the section below.
