Understanding the mileage allowance

Article updated on 02/28/2025

The included mileage depends on the length of your rental. You can increase your mileage allowance by buying a mileage package when you book the rental.

There’s no limit to how many miles you can drive during your rental. If you exceed your mileage allowance (the sum of the included mileage and mileage package if you bought one), you’ll pay for the extra miles at the end of the rental.

Included mileage

Duration Included mileage
1 hour 20 miles
2 hours - 9 hours + 20 miles per hour
1 day (from 9.5 hours) 200 miles
2 to 30 days + 200 miles per day

If you extend your rental, the included mileage for your rental will increase automatically.

Mileage packages and adjustments

If you plan to drive further than the included mileage for your rental, add a mileage package when booking to increase your mileage allowance. You can’t buy a mileage package after you’ve booked your rental.

The size of each mileage package depends on the duration of your rental:

Duration Size of each mileage package
1 hour - 1 day 20 miles
2 - 5 days 50 miles
6 - 30 days 100 miles

If you exceed your mileage allowance (the sum of the included mileage and mileage package if you bought one), you’ll pay for the extra kilometres/miles at the end of the rental. This is done automatically at the end of the rental.

The price per extra mile for mileage packages and adjustments is the following:

Mileage package Mileage adjustment
$0.35 per mile $0.50 per mile

For example: You rent a car for two days. You have 400 miles included, and decide to increase your mileage to 500 miles by buying a mileage package. During your rental, you end up driving 523 miles.

After your trip, you’ll be charged for the extra 23 miles driven, according to the price set by Getaround.

If the distance you drive is less than your mileage allowance, you won’t be refunded for the unused miles.
