Free Fuel Offer! Go Green. Go Red. 2/L? That’s funny business.
Ditch petrol prices. Drive electric with the Volkswagen ID.4 and pay nothing for fuel.* Start with a full charge, return it without paying for one. That’s how we do free fuel.
No Funny Business. Just Fair Rentals.
At Redspot, we believe car rental should be simple, transparent, and fair—no surprises at the counter and no inflated prices when demand spikes. That’s why this promotion is exactly what it sounds like: free fuel, redefined for electric driving. When you rent the Volkswagen ID.4, you’ll receive a full charge at pick-up and we’ll cover your charge on return—so you’re not watching dollars tick up at the pump or stressing about refuelling. It’s all part of our commitment to doing things differently: no price gouging, no hidden costs, and no funny business—just a better, more modern way to drive.

***Premium location fee: Sometimes a premium airport or downtown location will charge us an additional surcharge for each rental and we are upfront about this cost in your package! The price will depend on the location selected.
****Registration recovery fee: We pay a surcharge to cover our vehicle registration and compulsory third-party insurance costs and we highlight this clearly in your package breakdown.
At Redspot, we believe in straight-up honesty! Just so you’re in the loop, all the nitty-gritty on damage liability and extra charges can be found in our terms and conditions.

Will the car be fully charged when I pick it up?
Yes. Your EV will be fully charged and ready to go when you collect it.
What happens if I need to charge during my trip?
Any charging during your rental is paid by you, just like topping up fuel in a petrol car.
