I wanted to rent a car with a spacious backseat that could fit three 24-inch suitcases, so I specifically chose a Volkswagen Golf. However, when I arrived at the rental office, there were only two Indian staff members who were very indifferent. They said only the CHR was available, and if I wanted a different model, I would have to wait an unspecified amount of time. Due to being in a hurry, I had no choice but to accept it. The next day, I contacted the rental platform to request a vehicle change, but even after two days, they couldn't reach the rental office. Extremely disappointed with the German rental company.

Booked a Mercedes, ended up with a Ford. There were at least two similar Mercedes parked nearby. When I asked customer service, they said it's the same grade and refused to change.

The waiting time was over 30 minutes, and they didn't have the V40 I reserved, so they immediately upgraded me to an Escape SUV.

I have rented cars in Germany twice. The first time I rented an Audi A4 estate, but since they didn't have it, they upgraded me to a Volvo XC60, which was okay. This time I booked a Mercedes E-class estate, and again, they didn't have it, so they upgraded me to a Volvo XC60. Initially, I was a bit upset, but I found the XC60's noise insulation to be much better than the E-class estate I rented in the UK, and it had more space. The interior quality is much lower, and the driving feel of the Mercedes is definitely a class above Volvo.
