And it gets even better: With our carefree Pricing, you always travel at the lowest rate. Depending on the duration of the journey, the algorithm automatically switches from the minute rate to the hourly or daily rate. This eliminates the need for time-consuming route planning and reduces the stress level during the journey.

The fee to the airport is €19.50 in addition to the normal rental price. This fee applies if you drive from our business area in Munich to the airport and park your car in parking garage 20 (level 01 at the car sharing parking spaces). Should you decide to drive into the city starting at the airport, there is a fee of €17.50 for the journey.
Start renting:
The business area of CarVia Share is currently the city of Munich. You can see the precisely defined business area on the map in the CarVia app on your smartphone
During the journey:
During your journey, you can also use our vehicles outside our business area. Trips abroad are permitted in the following countries: Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Italy & France.
Please observe the regulations and vignette obligations applicable there. The tenant has to take care of these matters himself.
End of rental:
To end the rental, the vehicle must be parked again in our business area. If you have parked the car properly and got out of the car, you can simply end the rental via the app.
If this is not possible, please contact our support team.
The fees for ending a rental outside our business area vary depending on the distance to the business area, as we have to send a driver to collect the car again!
Our vehicles are covered by both third party and fully comprehensive insurance. The deductible is 1.500 EUR, you can reduce the excess to €0 for each trip by selecting the option Reduce deductible to 0€. This costs €1 per journey.
This, however, is not always the case. Cars belonging to the category “Black", our Porsche Taycans for example, are very expensive, therefore we cannot offer a reduction to €0. Paying a €3 fee does reduce the deductible from €5.000 to only €500.
However, the comprehensive cover does not apply in the event of gross negligence or intent. You can find out more about this in our General Terms and Conditions.
You can fill up with CarVia Share at all DKV filling stations. These are for example: Aral, Shell, ESSO, Agip; OMV and JET.
On the large pillar where the petrol stations display their prices you will also find a DKV symbol to be on the safe side.
You will find a corresponding fuel card in the glove compartment. You can then use this to pay for the refueling process.
There are no costs involved!
If there are any problems, that's not a problem either. In this case, you can simply pay for the tank yourself and send us a photo of the invoice with the license plate number of the vehicle. We will then transfer the money to you.
You are welcome to charge our vehicles at any time. You will find a charging cable in the trunk if you are at a public charging station without your own cable. You will find a charging card in the glove compartment.
Plug the cable into the car's plug and use the charging card to start the charging process at the charging station.
With Tesla, you should also note that the glove compartment can only be opened via the display in the main menu. (There is no physical button). And at Tesla Superchargers you don't need a charging card at all, because the charging station recognizes the Tesla automatically.
There are no charging costs!
