Carsharing is a sensible alternative to owning a car. But what about the insurance? The fact is: If you cause an accident with a hire car or carsharing vehicle, you yourself will have to pay some of the claim amount due to the high deductible. And it can easily cost you thousands of francs, depending on the provider.
You can of course opt for a lower deductible with extra insurance. But this in turn leads to a sharp hike in the hire price - which on first glance looked inexpensive. On the other hand, with AXA's Hire Car & Carsharing Insurance, you can, for an annual premium from around CHF 100, reduce the deductible to CHF 200 in the event of a claim.
