SCOOTER
QUAD
Please note that there is a maximum limit of 100 km per day for basic scooter rental. If the maximum limit is exceeded, a fee will be charged according to the following table:
If you rent a Taro T9, 125 cc scooter for 1 day, you pay the basic rental rate of 32 euro. When you return the scooter, if you have travelled more than 100 km, a surcharge per kilometer will be applied as indicated in the table.
Practical example: 137 km travelled (T9) = basic rental rate (to be paid at the time of rental) + surcharge per kilometer (to be paid on return) = 32 € + (0.30 € * 37) = 32 € + 11.10 € = 43.10 €
Alternatively, if you wish to rent a scooter for 1 day without mileage restrictions, you can opt for the SPECIAL RENTAL RATE WITH NO KM LIMITS:
In response to increasing demand, Scooter & Quad is now launching a long-term rental service, with a minimum rental period of 30 days, aimed at corporate and private customers throughout Cape Verde.
Companies that own vehicles/motorcycles know well that the costs associated with maintenance, repairs or even an internal or external workshop often overload the coffers and make it impractical to increase the fleet to meet daily needs. The scooter today is the ideal and most practical means of getting around quickly in cities with traffic congestion and limited parking spaces. Long-term rental is the corporate/private solution that allows the customer to enjoy the advantages of driving a scooter, an agile and fast response to daily tasks, with reduced petrol consumption costs.
We offer flexible, unique solutions tailored to the customer’s needs through customized, low-cost packages. We include compulsory liability insurance, maintenance and servicing in our proposals.
Servicing includes:
- Scheduled overhauls;
- Change of scooter type up to once every 3 months; minimum rental period of only 15 days in the new type;
- Replacement scooter for scheduled maintenance, accident or theft;
- Technical assistance in case of problems.
If you are interested, please contact us, tell us your requirements and we will prepare a customized proposal for your consideration.
