We didn't see any Green Motion signs at the airport. After asking the information desk, we waited about 10 minutes before seeing a shuttle driver holding a Green Motion sign. The drive to the pick-up point took less than 10 minutes. There weren't many people in line, but the efficiency was low. There were various sales pitches for different insurances.

Terrible experience! After completing the formalities and being informed that I had purchased the supplementary full insurance from the rental service, the female manager on duty tried to sell me paper maps, GPS, and various insurances, which I refused. Her attitude then became very unfriendly. The Vitara arranged for me was red and had over 90,000 kilometers. While driving from Seljalandsfoss to Skógafoss, I received a call from the rental company inquiring about the vehicle's condition and requesting an inspection the next morning in Vík. The male staff member sounded very anxious on the phone. After I confirmed that the car was fine, his tone noticeably relaxed. About an hour later, before reaching Vík in a mountain pass near the branch road to Sólheimajökull Glacier, the throttle stopped responding, and the car eventually stalled. When I contacted the company for assistance, they insisted without inspection that it was my improper operation that caused the throttle failure (later, the provided repair list proved it was a clutch failure). Due to the poor communication and rude attitude of the rental company, I terminated the service agreement. Thanks to the persistent efforts of colleagues from the rental service, we finally succeeded in getting compensation. The rental company's behavior was malicious, and their service before, during, and after the rental was very irresponsible and rude. I give them a bad review. First-time visitors to Iceland planning to rent a car should consider their options carefully.
The service was excellent. The rear windshield wiper broke for some reason, but the girl handling the return was very friendly and said they would try to waive the fee. So far, no charge, very happy.

The store is close to Reykjavik Airport, but their service is really bad. First, there is the intimidating insurance upsell. If you don't buy their €15 per day insurance, no matter how comprehensive your insurance from rentals is, they will pre-authorize a 290,000 ISK repair fee for any accident. Every minor scratch is considered an accident, and you'll have to pay over 15,000 RMB up front for repairs, which is a scam. If you buy their insurance, they only deduct 2,000 ISK. Low efficiency; from struggling to find their shuttle at the airport to finishing the communication, I spent 600 RMB on international calls. Never renting from this company again.
This car rental company is absolutely terrible. Remember the name, Green Motion! The exterior of the car we got was very damaged. The steering wheel had issues, the brakes were unresponsive, the acceleration was poor, and the seats were full of pits and dents. This led to a disastrous trip in Iceland, causing us to return the car and leave Iceland two days early. Our remaining accommodation was wasted, and we had to buy new tickets as we couldn't change our flights. When returning the car, we discovered that the GPS we rented couldn't enter the return address correctly because it was faulty and couldn't input the number 6. We even got help from Hertz staff to try and input it, but they couldn't either. Since their office wasn’t at the airport, we spent two hours looking for the return location and eventually left the car in front of a hotel at the airport, waiting for them to pick it up. Communication over the phone was very unpleasant, and they refused to come and get the car. We were almost missing our flight, and it was only after my companion angrily hung up that they sent someone. Returning the car two days early didn't get us any refund, and they even charged an additional 10,000 ISK without our permission. Overall, Green Motion deserves extremely negative reviews!!!
Our first car inexplicably broke down. Despite many local mechanics checking it, no one found the cause. After contacting the rental company, they promptly arranged for roadside assistance and a replacement car. Even though it was completed by 3 AM local time, their responsiveness was commendable and didn't affect our schedule the next day.
This company is extremely poor. First, I booked a Grand Cherokee. When I arrived, they said they didn't have it and gave me a Jeep Cherokee. They insisted it was of the same grade, claiming the Trailhawk was just as good, but a Grand Cherokee starts at half a million, whereas a Cherokee at most costs three hundred thousand. The same grade? They said if I insisted on a Grand Cherokee, I could wait for an old model for three hours until 7 PM, which would disrupt my schedule. I had to accept it. Such an untrustworthy foreign company should not be recommended. When returning the car, they inspected it meticulously and claimed an existing damage was not marked. Luckily, I bought full coverage, otherwise I would have had to compensate them. What an awful company.
Excellent service, the staff at the rental company were very handsome, enthusiastic and considerate. Their driving skills were top-notch. I had booked a SUZUKI VITARA, but they replaced it with a HONDA CRV, which was an automatic, very new, and easy to drive. I will definitely rent from them again next time I visit Iceland.
They recommended a type of door insurance, which we declined, and they didn't mention it again. The staff service was good, concise, and efficient. Highly recommend renting a car in Iceland!
The staff were okay. Their attitude and speed were acceptable. However, I booked a PASSAT or a similar model but was given a SUZUKI instead. They didn’t have a Passat. The Suzuki was not at the same level as the Passat and had over 60,000 kilometers on it. The car was just okay. Compared to other companies' cars, this one didn't feel new.
The service was pretty good. After calling them from the airport, someone came to pick us up within five minutes and took us to the rental location. Returning the car was quick too. Since our hotel was close by, the rental company's employee drove us directly to the hotel.
