The table shows the daily price for each rental period. For a weekend trip, use the 1–3 day rate. The lowest price on the car page applies to rentals of 16–30 days. To compare costs, multiply the relevant daily rate by the number of days and add any delivery charge.
Pay the full rental price before pickup. The deposit is separate and usually equals one day at the selected rate. We confirm the amount before payment, taking the car, driving experience and citizenship into account.
Dolphin for city trips
The Dolphin is a hatchback. Consider it if you will spend most of your time in Minsk and its cabin suits your passengers. Compare the cost for the whole rental, including pickup and return days.
Before booking, tell us how many people are travelling and what luggage you are bringing. For airport trips, suitcase dimensions matter: ask us to check that they fit with the rear seats in use. If you need a child seat, arrange availability and installation in advance.
Yuan Plus for city and country roads
The Yuan Plus is a crossover. It has a larger battery and a higher listed range than the Dolphin in our catalogue. Compare these figures if you plan to explore Belarus after visiting Minsk.
Plan charging stops around your route. Temperature, speed and heating affect energy consumption, so a catalogue range figure cannot determine exactly how far you can drive between charges. Find a main charging station and a backup, then check connectors and access before departure.
Checking the cabin
Check that passengers can sit comfortably and there is room for luggage. At pickup, adjust the seat and mirrors, check visibility and ask us to show the driving modes. This gives you time to get familiar with the car before joining an unfamiliar road.
For bulky luggage, include dimensions in your enquiry. Body style alone cannot tell you whether a pushchair or several suitcases will fit.
Pickup and your first trip
For airport pickup, provide your flight number and arrival time. Delivery during working hours costs 90 BYN; airport delivery and collection together cost 180 BYN. We work every day from 09:00 to 21:00, with regular returns by 20:00. Arrange any handover outside working hours separately.
Russian citizens can read the documents and payment guide. For a trip outside Minsk, see the Mir and Nesvizh route and charging guide. Include dates, passenger numbers and luggage dimensions in your enquiry.
