What are the advantages of a car subscription compared to car leasing?
The main advantages of a car subscription over classic car leasing are its flexibility and high degree of predictability. The termination of a car subscription is also uncomplicated: simply return the vehicle to the SIXT station – done! However, there is often a final installment at the end of the car lease, which you should take into account in your monthly calculation. In addition, there are often costs for damages that go beyond normal use when the car is returned.
