Choose your vehicle

Car

Please select this option if your vehicle has fewer than 10 seats, including the driver’s seat, as well as vehicles with disability modifications. Electric cars are also covered in this category. 

This vehicle type is not covered for driving on unsealed roads. However, SUVs and 4X4 vehicles are covered under “Cars” if you plan to drive on sealed roads. If you’re planning to drive on unsealed roads, please select the 4x4 option instead.

4x4

Please select this option if you plan to drive on unsealed roads in accordance with the permissions set out in your rental agreement. If you have protection that excludes 4x4 vehicles, you will need to cancel that protection and purchase 4x4 protection instead.

Campervan

Please select this option if your vehicle has in-built sleeping berths and no in-built shower or toilet. If you’re planning on driving on unsealed roads in accordance with the permissions set out in your rental agreement, add 4x4 protection to your Campervan via your RentalCover Account.

Motorhome / RV

Please select this option if your vehicle has both in-built sleeping berths and an in-built shower and/or toilet. If you are planning on driving on unsealed roads in accordance with the permissions set out in your rental agreement, add 4x4 protection to your Motorhome/RV via your RentalCover Account.
