🚗 Insurance today: higher prices, more terms and conditions

Insurance companies across the country are reviewing their rates. There are several reasons. The cost of vehicle repairs has risen - whether it's the price of spare parts, mechanics' labour or modern diagnostics. In addition, the number of road accidents is rising, which means a higher volume of insurance claims. At the same time, insurers have to hold higher reserves according to stricter legal requirements. And as new cars are becoming more expensive, so are claims.

The result?
✅ The average car insurance policy is now 10-20% more expensive than a year ago.

💡 How does this affect car rental ?

Even if youdon't rent a car forthe whole year, the higher insurance costs will be reflected in:
- Higher prices for both short and long term rentals,
- the amount of the deductible in the event of an accident or damage,
- the options and scope of insurance - what is and is not included.
That's why it's important to know what you're paying for and what's included.

✅ How to drive without stress and unnecessary costs ?
