Including Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)

with No Excess Deposit

Your peace of mind matters to us. Every Kia Picanto rental comes with comprehensive insurance coverage so that you can explore Mauritius worry-free. Enjoy Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection (TP), covering theft (excluding personal belongings), fire, accidents, vandalism, natural disasters (Jan–Apr), mechanical breakdowns, major scratches, cracked windscreens, and fallen objects.

Unlike other rental companies in Mauritius, we won’t block or pre-authorize an excess deposit on your credit card. That means no surprise charges and no hold on your travel budget—just a smooth, stress-free experience from start to finish. Enjoy your Mauritius adventure with total peace of mind!

About the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)

What is a Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)?

A Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) is a protection plan that limits your financial responsibility if your rental car is damaged in an accident. Instead of covering the full repair costs, you are only liable for a fixed excess (deductible) amount. CDW typically covers damages from collisions, fire, vandalism, and natural disasters, but it does not include negligence or lost items. For example, if your Kia Picanto suffers significant damage, you won’t be liable for the entire repair bill—only the capped excess amount (Rs25,000) applies.

No Excess Pre-Authorization on your Credit Card

Unlike most car rental companies in Mauritius, we do not pre-authorize or block excess deposits on your credit card. Instead, we follow a hassle-free approach, allowing you to settle the excess amount within 24-48 hours via credit card in case of an accident. This ensures a smoother customer experience while enabling us to process repairs and keep our fleet in top condition quickly.

Your Protection & Liability

If you are at fault in an accident, the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) ensures that you will not be responsible for the full cost of repairs. Your liability is limited to an excess (deductible) of Rs25,000 for the Kia Picanto. There are no hidden charges or administrative fees to pay other than the excess amount in case of an accident.

If you are not at fault, as confirmed by the insurance or police report, we will refund your excess deposit within 4 to 7 days from the date of the accident report. Banks may take 7-14 days to process the refund. For local customers, the refund is usually completed within 1 to 2 working days.

Replacement Car & Payment Method

In the event of severe damage, we will provide a replacement car of the same or higher category at no additional cost once the excess deposit has been settled.

Excess deposit payments are processed online using a credit card for easy refunds. Cash payment options are available only for local customers.

At TRAVELHUB Mauritius Car Rental, we prioritize your convenience and financial flexibility, ensuring a stress-free and seamless experience when renting a Kia Picanto to explore Mauritius.

Refundable Minor-Damage & Fines Deposit (MDFD)

What is the Refundable Minor-Damage & Fines Deposit (MDFD)?

Since we do not hold an insurance excess deposit of Rs25,000 upfront, we only require a refundable Minor-Damage & Fines Deposit (MDFD) of Rs6,000 when your Kia Picanto rental begins. This security deposit covers potential road traffic fines (such as speed camera violations and parking tickets) as well as minor vehicle damages during your rental period.

By keeping this deposit low, we ensure that your travel budget remains flexible, allowing you to fully enjoy your trip across Mauritius without unnecessary financial holds. If no fines or damages occur, the full deposit will be refunded. With TRAVELHUB Mauritius Car Rental, you can explore the island with peace of mind, knowing that we prioritize your financial flexibility while keeping the process simple and transparent.

Additional Notes:

Security deposits must be paid online via credit or debit card at least one day before vehicle delivery to ensure smooth refund processing after your rental ends.
If you are at fault in an accident and must pay the insurance excess, your security deposit will be fully refunded, and only the excess amount will be charged.
Alternatively, you can pay only the difference to cover your insurance excess. This means you would pay: Rs25,000 minus Rs6,000.

Theft (of the vehicle or its parts)

Benefits of Renting a KIA Picanto in Mauritius

Unlimited Mileage – Explore Without Limits

One of the best advantages of renting a KIA Picanto in Mauritius is that most rental companies offer unlimited mileage. This means you can roam freely from the lively streets of Port Louis to the serene beaches of Le Morne without worrying about distance restrictions.

Cost-Effective & Convenient

The KIA Picanto is known for its affordability and fuel efficiency, making it an excellent option for budget-conscious travelers. With a 1000cc engine and an efficient gasoline consumption rate, you’ll save on fuel costs while enjoying a smooth ride. Additionally, compact cars like the Picanto are easy to park, whether you’re stopping for fresh seafood in Grand Baie or visiting the famous Chamarel Seven Colored Earths.

Ideal Destinations to Explore with the KIA Picanto

Stunning Beaches & Coastal Drives

Mauritius is famous for its breathtaking beaches. With a KIA Picanto, you can easily drive to Mont Choisy Beach, a perfect spot for a relaxing swim, or head to Flic en Flac for some of the island’s best snorkeling and sunset views.

Scenic Mountain Routes

If you’re up for an adventure, drive towards Black River Gorges National Park, where you can enjoy lush greenery and hiking trails. The compact size of the Picanto makes navigating winding roads effortless.

Cultural & Historical Attractions

Exploring Mauritius with a KIA Picanto – A Perfect Fit for the Roads

Mauritius has a network of well-maintained yet narrow roads, especially in village areas and scenic coastal routes. The KIA Picanto, being a compact car, is ideal for maneuvering these roads comfortably.

Left-Lane Driving and Roundabouts

In Mauritius, driving is on the left-hand side, similar to the UK. Roundabouts are common, and it’s important to give priority to vehicles on your right. The Picanto’s responsive steering and smooth handling make adapting to these road conditions easy.

Built-in GPS & Smartphone Connectivity

Navigation is a breeze with the car’s built-in GPS and smartphone connectivity options like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Whether you’re looking for the fastest route or a hidden gem recommended by locals, having GPS assistance ensures a stress-free journey.
