Green Motion is a leading car hire and van rental company that specialises in environmentally friendly vehicles.
Green Motion has garnered a generally positive reputation for its reliable customer service and well-maintained vehicles, with many customers appreciating the friendly and helpful staff throughout the rental process. The convenience of shuttle services and easy check-in and check-out procedures further enhance the customer experience. However, concerns regarding aggressive upselling of additional services and unexpected charges have emerged, leading to dissatisfaction among some customers. Overall, while the company excels in customer interaction and vehicle quality, addressing transparency in pricing and service offerings could improve customer trust and satisfaction.

I rented a car from Green Motion in June 2025 for the first time. The lady (with green eyeliner) who came to me and my girl friends up from the airport was fantastic. She was super helpful and really humorous. Would recommend!

I hired a car from Zakynthos airport. The office was easy to find and easy to return the car too. Both the pick up and return were very quick and professionally done. The car itself was in excellent condition and spotlessly clean. I also thought the rental was good value for money.

The staff were very helpful and friendly.
There is, however, a company policy to charge up front for road tolls. There are no toll roads in the Algarve. The very helpful employee told me that this is not automatically paid back, but I must wait for the bill and then ask them to refund it

I have been using Green Motion for more than 7 years now and within that time we have received great cars and great service. We use Manchester Airport as our point of entry to the UK, the Great Motion team always greet us with a warm welcome. This Summer has been a difficult one for my family, I had to extend my rental twice; Laura and Chris were extremely obliging. Many thanks. I would recommend Green Motion.

Very happy. Didn't have to wait long for the shuttle bus. Short drive to office where the friendly staff dealt with with the paperwork efficiently. On the road in no time in a clean, nice to drive car. The same on my return with no problems and was back at the airport in plenty of time for my flight.

Answer: DON'T do it. They advertise low and sting you at the counter! Clerks hard sell additional insurance (they get a commission). In Glasgow, Scotland this last August, they tried to get me to pay $800 in insurance to cover a ten day rental that was about $35 a day! Many people have posted about scams where they charged unsuspecting customers for "damages" that were already on the car but the customer may not notice, like a tiny chip in the windshield or a small scratch on the door edge.
Answer: Speeding/parking tickets and police action are slow. They keep the deposit until they are sure there will be no problems with any of those costs. (and yeah, would be speeding fine + massive green motion fee).
Answer: Hi E. B. Thank you for your question. I can confirm that security deposits are automatically released by Green Motion on the last day of your rental after it has been established that the rental vehicle has been returned in the same condition as it was provided, and there are no further outstanding charges. Whilst in most cases this is available again within 10 working days, unfortunately, this can take up to 30 days depending on the bank that you use. We suggest that you contact your bank as they may be able to speed this process up for you. Green Motion's policy is to use pre-authorised transactions for our security deposits, which ring-fence the amount within your account, not charge it. This pre-authorised transaction will allow us to make charges if necessary at the end of the rental, but unless this occurs no money will leave your account. Due to the nature of this transaction, the release of these funds may not show on your bank statement as a separate transaction. If you believe that you have been charged your security deposit, please contact your bank and ask them to provide proof of the transaction as a charge on the first day of your rental so that we can look further into this for you. If this amount is still not available in your account after 30 days from the last day of your rental, please contact us at [email protected]. Kind regards, Green Motion International Customer Services.
Answer: We booked twice, everything in best order. No problems.

Answer: I believe Green Motion are a perfectly fair and respectful company. I suspect you didn't read their Ts&Cs properly. The two customers being served while I was collecting my car had also not read/understood the conditions and were caught by surprise. The representative dealt with them firmly but fairly.
Answer: They are robbers and scammers, never think to rent a car from green motion, they will charge you thousands of euros, instead buy a new car
