Driving a hire car can feel unfamiliar. And if something goes wrong – like the car gets damaged or stolen – you could be hit with a hefty excess.#
An RACV Rental Car Excess plan helps cover that cost. You choose the cover amount – with options from $1,000 up to $8,000 per policy## – and you can be reimbursed up to that amount if you need to make a claim.#
To get a rental car excess insurance quote, put ‘Australia’ as the country you’re travelling to. On the next page, select ‘Rental Car Excess’ as your cover.
