Terms of service

Vehicle Condition, Repairs, Operation

  1. In the rental agreement, damages known at the time of vehicle handover are documented. The tenant shall carefully inspect the vehicle for additional damages before starting the journey and promptly report them to EV Rent GmbH.
  2. The tenant commits to treating the vehicle with care and expertise, adhering to all relevant regulations and technical rules for use, regularly checking the vehicle’s roadworthiness, and properly securing the vehicle. EV Rent GmbH’s vehicles are strictly non-smoking. If smoking is detected in the vehicle upon return, a cleaning and disinfection fee of 89 EUR including 19% VAT will be charged.
  3. If repairs to the odometer or repairs necessary to maintain the vehicle’s operation or roadworthiness, or a prescribed inspection, become necessary during the rental period, the tenant may commission a contracted workshop up to an estimated repair cost of 50 EUR including 19% VAT.
  4. Vehicles with electric motors (including hybrid vehicles) are handed over to the tenant with a minimum battery charge of 90%. In return, the tenant must return the vehicle at the end of the lease with a charge level of at least 70% for short-term rentals (up to four weeks rental duration) and at least 50% for long-term rentals (from four weeks rental duration). If the vehicle is not returned adequately charged, EV Rent GmbH will invoice the tenant for charging the vehicle and for electricity. The charging fee is a flat rate of 30 EUR including 19% VAT.
  5. When charging an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle, the tenant must strictly follow the operating manual of the vehicle to be charged and the used accessories (e.g., charging cable), as well as any instructions at the charging station regarding the use of the charging station. The use of cables or other accessories that (i) are not certified according to relevant regulations (e.g., CE marking), (ii) are not approved for the respective vehicle or charging station according to the displayed information, or (iii) are damaged, is prohibited. If we are held responsible by the charging station operator due to improper use or damage to the charging station, we will pass this charge on to the tenant accordingly.
  6. A public parking space must be vacated once the charging process is completed or the maximum allowable parking duration is reached. Costs incurred by EV Rent GmbH due to exceeding the maximum charging and/or standing duration, as well as any costs for fines or the use of towing services incurred by EV Rent GmbH, for example, due to incorrect parking, will be invoiced to the tenant, plus a processing fee of 15 EUR including 19% VAT.
  7. For rental periods exceeding 27 days, the tenant is responsible for costs up to 8% of the respective monthly rent (net) for obtaining refill fluids (especially windshield cleaner and antifreeze) if refilling these fluids becomes necessary during the rental period.

Reservation, Booking

  1. Domestic and international reservations are binding. If the tenant does not take over the vehicle no later than one hour after the agreed-upon time, the reservation commitment is no longer valid.
  2. For bookings made exclusively using means of distance communication (such as through a website, app, email, phone, etc.) or outside business premises, there is no right of withdrawal.
  3. Up to one hour before the pickup time indicated in the current reservation, a modification of the booking is possible for a rebooking fee according to the current tariff. The costs for such a rebooking amount to 20% of the original rental price including statutory VAT, plus any difference between the originally chosen tariff and the changed tariff. Additionally, the pickup and/or return location cannot be changed to locations outside the country of pickup and/or return specified at the time of reservation. There is no refund of the already paid rental prepayment or reimbursement of any difference in case of a booking modification. The customer can cancel a booking before the pickup time indicated in the current reservation. In the event of cancellation, there is no entitlement to a refund of the paid rental prepayment. The cancellation fee is 20% of the original and total rental price including statutory VAT for all bookings and reservations. Cancellations can be made in writing and should be addressed to: EV Rent GmbH, Gottbillstr. 44, 54294 Trier, Germany, Email info@evrent-trier.de. In case of non-collection of the booked vehicle or collection after the agreed-upon rental start time in the reservation confirmation, the already paid rental price will be retained in full.

Documents to be Presented at Vehicle Pickup, Authorized Drivers, Permissible Uses, Trips Abroad

  1. The tenant must present a valid ID card or passport, a domestically valid driver’s license necessary for operating the vehicle, and a payment method accepted by EV Rent with a validity of at least 30 days from the vehicle return. Accepted on-site payment methods include EC card, VISA and Mastercard credit cards, and cash. Under certain circumstances, a real-time transfer may also be valid after consultation with EV Rent GmbH. The valid driver’s license must be proven by presenting the original driver’s license. If the tenant cannot present these documents at the vehicle handover, EV Rent GmbH reserves the right to withdraw from the rental agreement; in such cases, the tenant has no claims for non-fulfillment. Additionally, specific age and driver’s license restrictions apply to certain vehicle categories, which can be viewed and inquired about by phone at the time of rental.
  2. Driver’s licenses from non-EU/EWR states are accepted if (i) no visa is entered in the customer’s passport or (ii) the customer has a visa in the passport and has not been in an EU/EWR state for more than 6 months at the time of rental. If the customer has been in an EU/EWR state for more than 6 months, a driver’s license from an EU/EWR state must be presented. A non-Latin script driver’s license (Arabic, Japanese, Cyrillic, etc.) must be supplemented with an international driver’s license. For driver’s licenses from countries not belonging to international driver’s license agreements, in addition to the original driver’s license, a certified translation is required.
  3. In case of doubt by EV Rent GmbH regarding the tenant’s identity, the validity of their driver’s license, or their creditworthiness, EV Rent GmbH is entitled to withhold vehicle handover until the tenant satisfactorily clarifies any doubts about identity, driver’s license, and creditworthiness.
  4. The vehicle may only be driven by the drivers specified in the rental agreement. If the vehicle is driven by persons other than those named, the rental fee specified in the rental agreement applies to each additional driver. Presentation of the original driver’s license and identification documents of any additional drivers is mandatory during vehicle pickup.
  5. Corporate customers are responsible for independently verifying whether the authorized driver possesses a valid driver’s license still valid in the country. They must exhaust all available means and obtain the necessary information for this purpose.
  6. The tenant is responsible for the driver’s actions as if they were their own. All rights and obligations from this agreement apply for and against the authorized driver.
  7. The tenant must ensure that the vehicle is used only within the applicable legal regulations. The vehicle may only be used in public traffic, not for driving school exercises. The vehicle may not be used for: • motorsport purposes, especially driving events focusing on achieving maximum speed, or related practice drives, • vehicle tests or driving safety training, • on racetracks, • for commercial passenger transport, • for subletting, • for committing crimes, even if only punishable under the laws of the crime scene, • for transporting easily flammable, toxic, or otherwise dangerous substances.
  8. The tenant is obliged to properly secure the cargo.
  9. Depending on the vehicle category and individual booking, the use of rental vehicles in certain countries is prohibited. The applicable restrictions are indicated in the rental agreement. For each willful violation of the provisions regarding international use, the customer is obliged to pay a contractual penalty. EV Rent GmbH may also demand further damages in addition to the payment of the contractual penalty. In such a case, the claim for the contractual penalty will be set off against a claim for further damages arising from the same breach of duty.
  10. Violations of or non-compliance with any of the provisions according to the preceding paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 7 entitle EV Rent GmbH to terminate the rental agreement without notice or to withdraw from the rental agreement. Tenant’s claims for compensation are excluded in such a case. The claim for compensation for damages incurred by EV Rent GmbH due to the violation of any of the provisions according to the preceding paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 7 remains unaffected.

Pricing

  1. The rental price consists of a base rental price and any additional services. Additional services include, in particular, extra kilometers, battery charging costs, service fees, toll charges, accessories/extras such as child seats, snow chains, navigation devices, delivery and pickup costs, etc. Special prices and discounts are applicable only in the case of timely payment.
  2. If the vehicle is not returned to the rental station where it was picked up, the tenant is obligated to reimburse EV Rent GmbH for the repatriation costs, unless another written agreement has been made.
  3. For deliveries and pickups, the agreed-upon delivery or pickup fees, plus the costs for refueling and fuel according to the valid price list at the time of rental, will be invoiced.
  4. A specific station is agreed upon in the rental agreement as the location for returning the vehicle at the end of the rental period.
  5. If, during the term of a rental agreement, the rent is mutually extended or shortened, or the return location is mutually changed, EV Rent GmbH is entitled to charge an adjustment fee for the associated administrative effort. The adjustment fee is 30 EUR including 19% VAT. Any adjustment to the rental price and/or the incurrence of other fees remains unaffected by this.

Maturity, Electronic Invoicing, Payment Terms, Security Deposits (Security), Termination for Default in Payment

  1. The rental price (plus any other agreed-upon fees, such as liability waivers, delivery costs, airport fees, etc.) plus value-added tax at the currently applicable statutory rate is to be paid in full for the agreed rental period; no refunds will be made for delayed vehicle pickup or early return. The rental price is due at the beginning of the rental period at the latest. If the rental duration exceeds 27 days, the rent is to be paid in intervals of 28 days. If the rental period ends before the completion of another 28-day interval, the remaining invoice amount since the last billing is to be paid at the time of the rental termination.
  2. The tenant agrees that the landlord’s invoices will generally be handed over in paper form during the vehicle handover. Additionally, the tenant consents to receiving the invoice alternatively via email if handing it over in paper form is not feasible without inconvenience. The tenant may object to receiving invoices in electronic form at any time. In this case, EV Rent GmbH will provide the invoices in paper form to the tenant. The tenant is responsible for bearing the additional costs for sending the invoice in paper form and the postage for this. The tenant is responsible for ensuring the electronic invoices can be delivered to them or, if agreed, picked up in electronic form. The tenant is responsible for disturbances to receiving equipment or other circumstances preventing access. An invoice is considered received as soon as it has entered the tenant’s domain. If EV Rent GmbH only sends a notification, and the tenant can retrieve the invoice themselves or if EV Rent GmbH makes the invoice available for retrieval, the invoice is considered received when retrieved by the tenant. The tenant is obligated to retrieve the provided invoices at reasonable intervals. If an invoice does not reach or cannot be received by the tenant, the tenant will promptly inform the landlord. In this case, EV Rent GmbH will resend a copy of the invoice and label it as a copy. If the disruption in the ability to send is not promptly resolved, EV Rent GmbH is entitled to send invoices in paper form until the disruption is rectified. The tenant bears the costs for sending paper invoices. If the tenant becomes aware that the information has been obtained by unauthorized individuals, they must promptly inform EV Rent GmbH.
  3. At the beginning of the rental period, the tenant is obliged to pay a security deposit in addition to the rental price as security for the fulfillment of their obligations. The amount of the deposit is 500 EUR for a rental period up to 28 days and 1000 EUR for a rental period exceeding 28 days.
  4. EV Rent GmbH is not obligated to segregate the security deposit from its assets. No interest accrues on the security deposit. EV Rent GmbH can enforce the claim for the security deposit even a longer time after the start of the rental agreement.
  5. Unless otherwise agreed, the rent, all other agreed-upon fees, and the security deposit will be charged to the payment method, especially the credit card, debit card, or Maestro card, of the tenant.
  6. Instead of charging the customer’s credit card, EV Rent GmbH may block an amount equal to the deposit from the credit limit granted to the customer by their credit card institution for their credit card through a so-called merchant inquiry in favor of EV Rent GmbH.
  7. If the tenant defaults on paying the rent, EV Rent GmbH is entitled to terminate the rental agreement without prior notice. If the agreed rental duration exceeds 27 days and the tenant is in full or substantial arrears with the payment for the relevant period, EV Rent GmbH is also entitled to terminate the rental agreement due to default in payment without prior notice.

Insurance

  1. The insurance coverage for the rented vehicle includes liability insurance along with comprehensive insurance. The deductible per incurred claim is evident in the rental agreement.
  2. Excluded from the insurance is the use of the vehicles for transporting hazardous substances subject to the Hazardous Goods Road, Rail, and Inland Waterway Transportation Regulations (GGVSEB).
  3. In the event of liability damages, the tenant or driver is not authorized to acknowledge or satisfy claims from third parties, in whole or in part, without the prior consent of EV Rent GmbH.
  4. The tenant or driver is obliged to, to the extent possible, take measures to prevent and mitigate damages when an occurrence of damage happens. In doing so, they must follow instructions from EV Rent GmbH, as far as reasonable, and assist in the determination and settlement of the damages.
  5. EV Rent GmbH is authorized to fulfill or defend claims for damages asserted against the tenant or driver in their name and to make all statements that seem appropriate within the scope of dutiful discretion. If claims are asserted against the tenant or driver, either out of court or in court, the tenant or driver is obliged to report this promptly after the claim is raised. In the case of claims brought to court, EV Rent GmbH will be entrusted with conducting the legal proceedings. EV Rent GmbH is entitled to appoint a lawyer on behalf of the tenant or driver, to whom the tenant or driver must grant power of attorney and provide all necessary information and requested documents.

Accidents, Theft, Reporting Obligations, Duties

  1. After an accident, theft, fire, damage caused by wildlife, or any other incident, the tenant or the driver must immediately notify and involve the police; especially report the damage to the nearest police station in case of unavailability by phone. This applies even if the rental vehicle is only slightly damaged, and also in the case of self-inflicted accidents without the involvement of third parties.
  2. In the event of any damage to the vehicle during the rental period, the tenant is obligated to promptly inform EV Rent GmbH in writing about all details of the incident that led to the damage of the vehicle. This also applies in the case of the theft of the vehicle or vehicle parts. For this purpose, the tenant should fill out the accident report form found in the two vehicle documents carefully and truthfully, including details such as the location, time, description of the accident, and the complete name and address of the driver involved in the accident. Additionally, the form can be requested by phone from EV Rent GmbH or accessed on the EV Rent GmbH websites. The tenant or driver must take all necessary measures to assist in clarifying the circumstances of the incident. This includes answering EV Rent GmbH’s questions about the incident truthfully and completely, and not leaving the accident scene before the necessary findings, particularly those relevant to EV Rent GmbH’s assessment of the incident, have been made or allowing EV Rent GmbH to make them.

Liability of EV Rent GmbH

  1. EV Rent GmbH is liable in cases of intent or gross negligence of EV Rent GmbH, a representative, or a vicarious agent according to statutory provisions. Otherwise, EV Rent GmbH is only liable for damages to life, body, health, or the culpable breach of essential contractual obligations. The claim for damages due to the violation of essential contractual obligations is limited to the typically foreseeable damage.
  2. EV Rent GmbH assumes no liability for items left in the rental object upon return; this does not apply in cases of intent or gross negligence of EV Rent GmbH, a representative, or a vicarious agent.

Tenant’s Liability

  1. In the case of vehicle damage, vehicle loss, and breaches of the rental agreement, the tenant and/or the driver are generally liable according to general liability rules. The tenant and/or driver are not liable if they are not responsible for the breach of duty.
  2. The tenant may exclude liability for accidents (contractual exemption from liability) or for individual other damages (protection packages) for damages to EV Rent GmbH, vehicle loss, and fire by paying a special and/or additional fee. Such a contractual exemption from liability corresponds to the concept of comprehensive insurance. In this case, the tenant and the drivers included in the scope of the contractual exemption from liability are individually liable for each damage event up to the amount of the agreed deductible; there is no entitlement to a contractual exemption from liability or a booked protection package if the damage was intentionally caused. In the case of grossly negligent causation of the damage, EV Rent GmbH is entitled to proportionally reduce its obligation to exempt from liability, also from a booked protection package, in relation to the severity of the negligence. There is no entitlement to a contractual exemption from liability or from a booked protection package if an obligation to be fulfilled by the tenant or driver, especially according to lit. G of these General Rental Conditions, was intentionally violated. In the case of grossly negligent violation of an obligation to be fulfilled by the tenant or driver, EV Rent GmbH is entitled to proportionally reduce its obligation to exempt from liability, also from a booked protection package, in relation to the severity of the negligence; the burden of proof for the absence of gross negligence lies with the tenant or the driver. Contrary to the provisions of the preceding two sentences, EV Rent GmbH is obliged to exempt from liability, also from a booked protection package, to the extent that the violation of the obligation was not causative for the occurrence of the exemption from liability case or for the determination or scope of the liability exemption obligation of EV Rent GmbH; this does not apply if the obligation was violated with fraudulent intent. The contractual exemption from liability applies only for the rental contract period. The deductible per damage event that the tenant has to bear is based on the price lists in force at the time of rental.
  3. The tenant is fully responsible for all violations of traffic and regulatory provisions and other legal regulations, as well as for all disturbances of possession caused by them or third parties to whom the tenant hands over the vehicle. The tenant indemnifies EV Rent GmbH from all fines and warning fees, fees, and other costs imposed by authorities or other entities on EV Rent GmbH on the occasion of such violations. In compensation for the administrative effort incurred by EV Rent GmbH for processing inquiries from law enforcement authorities or other third parties for the identification of traffic violations, crimes, or disturbances that occurred during the rental period, a processing fee is due for each such request and will be charged to the tenant’s credit card (if available) or invoiced to the tenant unless the tenant can prove that EV Rent GmbH has incurred no or significantly lower expenses and/or damages; EV Rent GmbH is not precluded from claiming further damages.
  4. In the event of the loss or damage of the charging cable for electric or hybrid vehicles, a fee of 250.00 euros including 19% VAT is due for the replacement of the 230-volt cable, and the same applies for the Type 2 cable. In case of loss of the tire repair kit, a fee of 120.00 euros including 19% VAT is due. For the loss of the first aid and warning vest kit, a fee of 50.00 euros including 19% VAT is due. In case of loss or theft of the Tesla key card, the customer is obliged to inform EV Rent immediately. EV Rent reserves the right to charge a fee of 130.00 euros including 19% VAT, plus possible associated costs (towing fees, expenses for restoring drivability, and others) for the issuance of a replacement card.
  5. An accident is defined as an event caused by external forces suddenly and mechanically acting on the vehicle. Brake, operational, and pure breakage damages are not considered accident damages, especially damages caused by sliding cargo, improper battery loading, damages due to improper use of the vehicle, torsional damages, operating errors, overuse of the vehicle, and damages between the towing and towed vehicles or trailer without external influence.
  6. The tenant is responsible for ensuring the timely and complete payment of toll fees when using toll roads. The tenant indemnifies EV Rent GmbH from all toll fees caused by the tenant or third parties to whom the tenant hands over the vehicle.
  7. These regulations apply not only to the tenant but also to the authorized driver, with the contractual liability exemption not applying to unauthorized users of the rented property.
  8. The provisions of the Insurance Contract Act (VVG) and the regulations of the General Conditions for Motor Vehicle Insurance (AKB) apply additionally to the regulations in these GTC. Multiple tenants are jointly and severally liable for claims arising from or in connection with the rental agreement.
  9. The tenant assures that they will not operate the vehicle under the influence of alcohol, drugs, intoxicants, or prescription medications.

Return of the Vehicle, Data in Navigation and Communication Systems, Vehicle Exchange

  1. The rental agreement ends upon expiration of the agreed rental period. If the tenant continues to use the vehicle after the agreed rental period has expired, the lease is not considered extended. Section 545 of the German Civil Code (BGB) does not apply.
  2. The tenant is obliged to return the vehicle to EV Rent GmbH in a contractually compliant condition at the agreed location and time at the end of the rental period. In case of excessive dirtiness of the vehicle requiring special cleaning or if the vehicle is returned with odor impairment, the tenant is liable for damages to EV Rent GmbH. Special cleaning costs will be charged based on effort, but at least with a special cleaning flat fee unless the tenant proves that no or significantly less damage occurred to EV Rent GmbH; EV Rent GmbH is not precluded from claiming further damages. If the tenant returns the vehicle before the agreed rental period in the rental contract without notifying the lessor in advance, the possibility of a refund for unused rental days will be examined. A higher standard rate may also apply if, for example, the conditions for a special rate are no longer met (see also section 4 below). However, the originally agreed rental price will not be exceeded in this case.
  3. Due to the use of a navigation device, the navigation data entered during the rental period may be stored in the vehicle. When pairing mobile or other devices with the vehicle, data from these devices may also be stored in the vehicle. If the tenant/driver wishes to have the aforementioned data no longer stored in the vehicle after returning it, they must ensure deletion before returning the vehicle. Deletion can be achieved by resetting the navigation and communication systems of the vehicle to factory settings. Instructions for this can be found in the operating manual located in the vehicle, available either in paper form or digitally. EV Rent GmbH is not obligated to delete the aforementioned data.
  4. Special rates apply only for the offered period and require that the rental is for the entire rental period agreed upon at the time of rental. In case of exceeding or falling short of the agreed rental period, the special rate does not apply for the entire rental period; instead, the standard rate applies.
  5. In case of a breach of the return obligation, multiple tenants are jointly and severally liable.
  6. If the tenant does not return the vehicle or the vehicle key to EV Rent GmbH at the end of the agreed rental period, even unintentionally, EV Rent GmbH is entitled to demand compensation for the duration of the withholding as compensation for use, at least in the amount of the previously agreed rental fee. In addition, the tenant is obliged to pay a flat fee as compensation for the associated processing effort, unless the tenant proves that no or significantly less effort and/or damage has occurred to EV Rent GmbH. The assertion of further damages is not excluded.
  7. For long-term rentals (rentals with an agreed rental period of more than 27 days), the following applies in addition to clauses 1 to 7 of this section J: a) The tenant is obliged to return the vehicle if the specified permissible mileage in the rental contract is reached before the agreed rental period expires. In the event that the tenant culpably exceeds the permissible mileage specified in the rental contract by more than 100 km, they are obliged to pay a contractual penalty of EUR 100 including 19% VAT, plus the corresponding fee for additional kilometers driven; EV Rent GmbH can also demand additional damages in addition to the contractual penalty. In such a case, the claim for contractual penalty is offset against the claim for additional damages arising from the same breach of duty.
  8. The tenant is obliged to return the vehicle to EV Rent GmbH during the rental period upon instruction if there is a valid reason. Valid reasons include, in particular, the performance of inspection, maintenance, or repair work, manufacturer recall, reaching a specific mileage, or a specific holding period. Upon return, the vehicle must still have a remaining battery charge of at least 70% according to the display of the on-board computer. If the tenant returns a vehicle that does not indicate the aforementioned remaining battery charge, they are responsible for the additional costs for transporting the vehicle for charging, plus a charging fee of EUR 30 including 19% VAT.
  9. Vehicles with electric motors (including hybrid vehicles) are handed over to the tenant with a minimum battery charge of 90%. In return, the tenant must return the vehicle at the end of the lease term with a charge of at least 70% for short-term rentals (up to four weeks of rental) and at least 50% for long-term rentals (four weeks or more of rental). If the vehicle is not returned with the appropriate charge, EV Rent GmbH will invoice the tenant for charging the vehicle and for electricity. The charging fee is a flat rate of EUR 30 including 19% VAT.

Termination

The parties are entitled to terminate the rental agreements in accordance with legal provisions. EV Rent GmbH can terminate the rental agreements with immediate effect for a significant reason. A significant reason includes:

  1. Significant deterioration in the tenant’s financial circumstances,
  2. Unredeemed direct debits/cheques,
  3. Enforcement measures taken against the tenant,
  4. Neglect of vehicle maintenance,
  5. Improper and unlawful use,
  6. Disregard of regulations regarding the use of motor vehicles in freight transport,
  7. The impracticability of continuing the rental agreement; e.g., due to an excessively high damage ratio.

If there are multiple rental agreements between EV Rent GmbH and the tenant, and EV Rent GmbH is entitled to terminate one rental agreement with immediate effect for a significant reason, it may also terminate the other rental agreements with immediate effect if the continued existence of the additional rental agreements is unreasonable due to the tenant’s gross breach of good faith. This is particularly the case if the tenant:

  1. Intentionally damages a rental vehicle,
  2. Negligently conceals damage caused to a rental vehicle from EV Rent GmbH or attempts to hide such damage,
  3. Intentionally inflicts damage on a rental vehicle,
  4. Is in arrears with rental payments totaling at least one week’s rent for more than five business days,
  5. Uses a rental vehicle for or in the commission of intentional criminal acts.

If EV Rent GmbH terminates a rental agreement, the tenant is obligated to immediately return the vehicles, including vehicle documents, all accessories, and all vehicle keys, to EV Rent GmbH.

Debit Authorization of the Tenant, Setoff Prohibition

  1. The tenant irrevocably authorizes EV Rent GmbH and its authorized debt collection agents to debit all rental car costs and all other claims related to the rental agreement from the payment method presented, named in the rental agreement, or subsequently provided or additionally named by the tenant at the conclusion of the rental agreement.
  2. Offsetting against claims of EV Rent GmbH is only possible with undisputed or legally established claims of the tenant or an authorized driver.

Written Form, Dispute Resolution, Jurisdiction, Contract Language, Severability Clause

  1. Oral collateral agreements do not exist.
  2. The European Commission has established a platform for out-of-court online dispute resolution of consumer disputes at http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. EV Rent GmbH will not participate in alternative dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board and is not obliged to do so.
  3. The place of jurisdiction is Trier if the tenant is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a public-law special fund.
  4. The contract language is German. To the extent that EV Rent GmbH provides the customer with these terms and conditions or other contractual terms in another language during the conclusion of the contract, these are only non-binding translations and a non-binding service of EV Rent GmbH. In case of discrepancies, uncertainties, and contradictions between the German version and other versions of terms and conditions and other contractual terms, the German version always takes precedence over any translations.
  5. Should any of the foregoing conditions be wholly or partially ineffective or void, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. Section 139 of the German Civil Code (BGB) does not apply.

Miscellaneous

  1. The tenant is obligated to promptly notify EV Rent GmbH by email (info@evrent-trier.de) of the withdrawal of the driver’s license and any circumstances restricting the driver’s license (e.g., license restrictions, temporary confiscation or seizure of the driver’s license, or a court or administrative driving ban). With the withdrawal of the driver’s license or the occurrence of other circumstances restricting the driver’s license (e.g., license restrictions, temporary confiscation or seizure of the driver’s license, or a court or administrative driving ban), the tenant is prohibited from renting vehicles. The right to drive a rented vehicle ends or is suspended immediately upon the occurrence of any of the aforementioned circumstances.
