Insurance Requirements

You are responsible for all damage or loss you cause to others. You agree to provide auto liability, collision and comprehensive insurance covering you, us, and the Vehicle and must remain in effect for the duration of the rental period. Comprehensive and collision deductibles must not be more than $1,000.

Customer agrees to maintain automobile insurance during the term of this rental agreement, providing the owner, the renter, and any other person using or operating the rental vehicle with the following primary coverage:  a.  Bodily injury and property damage liability coverage;  b.  Personal injury protection, no-fault, or similar coverage where required;  c.  Uninsured / underinsured coverage where required, and d.  Comprehensive and collision damage coverage extending to the rental vehicle.  Customer’s insurance will provide at least the minimum limits of coverage required by the financial responsibility laws of the state where the loss occurs.  Because the customer is providing automobile insurance, we are not.  In states where the law requires us to provide insurance we will provide excess insurance only, up to the minimum limits required by the financial responsibility laws.  The customer’s insurance will be primary.  Any insurance we are required to provide applies to claims of bodily injury and property damage only and is secondary to any other valid and collectable insurance whether it is primary, secondary, excess, or contingent.  Our policy contains exclusions, conditions, and limitations applicable to anyone claiming coverage.  Customer agrees to cooperate with our insurer if any claim is made.  Our insurance applies only in the United States, and Canada.  Customer must obtain written permission, and purchase special liability insurance, to use or operate the rental vehicle in Mexico.  Where permitted by law, customer rejects uninsured, underinsured, supplemental, personal injury protection, and no-fault coverage. Where we are required to provide such coverage, renter is afforded the minimum limits required by law. Any breach of this agreement will void any insurance coverage."

All renters must carry some form of insurance to cover damages to the Vehicle in the event of an accident. You have several options:

If you do not have full coverage insurance you can rent another way. Please contact us for instructions.

Additional Drivers

Additional drivers must meet the same rental qualifications as the renter. Additional drivers must appear with the primary renter at the time of pick up. There will be no additional charge for each additional authorized driver including a spouse or domestic partner. There is a limit of two additional drivers per rental contract. A spouse or domestic partner is the only permitted additional driver on non-credit card deposits. Additional driver age restrictions are the same as primary.

Payments & Deposits

Payment is due upon booking.

Refundable security deposits are held at the time of pickup and start at $150. If you book with a debit card deposits can be $1,000 or more depending on your insurance deductibles.

Deposits cannot be used to extend your booking.

Deposits are used in the event there is damage, tolls, tickets, or fees not included in the rental agreement.

Security deposits are returned to the same card used.

Mileage Policy

Mileage allowance is 100 miles per day unless otherwise specified. Up to a $3/mile charge for overages depending on the Tesla Model. In some cases mileage and overages are negotiable. Please message us for any questions before your trip.

We do offer trip extras to add additional miles, unlimited miles, and prepaid charging. These typically need to be purchased before the trip start.

Smoking Policy

Smoking is not permitted within the Vehicle at anytime. Violation of this agreement will be fined upward of $500 or more depending on if there is damage.

Charging Policy

Tesla does not currently have superchargers on the island of Oahu. However, there are Hawaiian Electric (HECO) fast chargers that are compatible with the Model X and S only. These chargers provide up to 145 miles per hour of charge. HECO fast chargers are not compatible with the Model 3 at this time. Current charging rates can be found under our support section via the link “Fast Charging Locations X and S only”.

If the customer is left at the side of the road with an empty battery due to poor planning, then the customer is liable for any fees including and related to the towing and recharging of the Vehicle. In addition, in any case, the fees for transporting the car to the nearest charging station are the sole responsibility of the customer.

Electric vehicles sometimes experience phantom drain where the Vehicle will loose its charge of around 2-3%/day (or more based on conditions). If parking overnight with low battery you could have an unexpected drop in range the next morning. Do not let the battery go below 50 miles of range. 

Do not park the vehicle in a spot designating for charging while not charging. Be respectful and move the vehicle when you are not actively charging the vehicle. Download the apps PlugShare and Volta to locate all the free and paid charging around the island.

You must use the Vehicle only for your personal use and not for any commercial purposes (e.g. driving other passengers for a fee such as through Uber or Lyft)

You must exercise reasonable care in your use of the Vehicle. You are required at all times to operate the Vehicle safely, and in compliance with all applicable laws, including without limitation, speed limits and prohibitions on impaired or distracted driving.

You must only use the Vehicle within the United States of America. 

Damage Policy

You are responsible for all collision damage to the Vehicle even if someone else caused it or the cause is unknown. You are responsible for the cost of repair up to the value of the Vehicle, towing, storage, and impound fees. Your own insurance, or the issuer of the credit card you used to pay for the vehicle rental transaction, may cover all or part of your financial responsibility for the Vehicle. You should check with your insurance company, or credit card issuer, to find out about your coverage and the amount of the deductible, if any, for which you may be liable. Further, if you use a credit card that provides coverage for your potential liability, you should check with the issuer to determine if you must first exhaust the coverage limits of your own insurance before the credit card coverage applies.

You are responsible for all damage to, and for loss or theft of, the Vehicle including damage caused by collision, weather, road conditions and acts of nature, even if you are not at fault. You are responsible for the cost of repair, or the actual cash retail value of the Vehicle on the date of the loss if the Vehicle is not repairable or if we elect not to repair the Vehicle. You are also responsible for Loss of Use (without regard to fleet utilization), Diminished Value, and our administrative expenses incurred processing a claim. You must report all accidents and incidents of theft and vandalism to us and the police as soon as you discover them.

Flat tires are a fact of life, and renters are responsible for a flat tire that occurs during the trip, as well as any related damage that may result from that flat or damaged tire.

In the event of a flat, the renter should contact roadside service to change the tire and replace it with a spare, and then coordinate next steps with the host. If the tire can be repaired, it might be best to do so. If the sidewall is damaged or a repair is not possible, the renter is responsible for replacing that tire.

In the event of a collision or other damage, file a police report, take photos, gather insurance/ID from other party (if applicable) and let us and your insurance know asap.
