  • Speed: In Frankfurt, speed limits are very strict. Don’t exceed 50 km/h (31 mph) in the city.
  • Autobahn: The Autobahns, or motorways, are known for their quality. Experience your smoothest ride ever.

After the rental

  • Terminal Drop-Off: This service allows you to meet a SIXT agent at your desired terminal and complete the return process together.

If you need a hire car at Frankfurt Airport you cannot go wrong with SIXT, both I and another member of the group had cars from there and the experience was very easy and a pleasure from start to finish. Considering the car we hired, the value was incredibly good as well. Keep up the great work and we'll see you next time.
