Mobility today should above all be flexible. In addition to classic car rental, car subscriptions are becoming increasingly popular in Switzerland. But what are the differences, and how can both solutions be used optimally? Here is the comparison.
Classic rental
Classic rental is ideal if you need a car for a short period or a clearly defined timeframe, for example:
Holidays in Switzerland or abroad
Weekend trips
Short-term mobility needs
Very flexible for short rental periods
Large selection of vehicles
Often more expensive for longer use
Additional costs possible (insurance, additional driver)
With a car subscription, you get a vehicle for several months at a fixed monthly price, usually including:
Insurance
Taxes
Maintenance & service
Tires
Predictable costs
Delivery possible
Ideal for longer use
Less flexible for very short periods
Monthly costs even with low usage
The main difference lies in duration of use and cost structure:
Classic rental: ideal for short, clearly defined periods; maximum flexibility
Car subscription: ideal for regular use over several months; fixed price and low administrative effort
Both models can be combined as needed to cover spontaneous trips and planned mobility optimally.
Do I need the car regularly over several months? → Car subscription
Do I need a vehicle only occasionally or short-term? → Classic rental
Do I want a fixed all-inclusive price? → Car subscription
Do I want maximum flexibility without long-term commitment? → Classic rental
