The overall experience was straightforward with no unnecessary hassle. The car was new and the driving experience was excellent. However, when I rented the electric vehicle, I specifically asked if there were any special requirements regarding charging, and the staff said there weren't. Upon returning the car, the inspection staff suddenly told me I needed to charge the battery to over 80%, resulting in a charge of more than 20 euros. This was a negative experience.

Basically satisfied

The model provided at pickup was smaller than the original reservation, causing our luggage not to fit. After explaining the situation to them, we were told that we either take the smaller car, cancel the order, or pay extra for an upgrade. We spent 2 hours trying to resolve the issue with the rental company’s customer service but were not satisfied with the outcome. Since we couldn't afford to waste more time, we opted to pay extra for the upgrade.

I have never received the reserved car model in Europe via ZuzuChe.

There were quite a few people at the car pickup. The lady assisting us saw we were Chinese and tried to upsell us. She said we could upgrade from our booked Peugeot 308 to the latest 2018 Alfa Romeo Q4 SUV for just an additional 20 euros per day. Considering our luggage and vehicle condition, we agreed to the upgrade. She told us we'd need to pay a total of about 260 euros extra at drop-off (I signed the document but forgot the exact amount). We confirmed multiple times if the total additional cost would only be 260 euros, and she reassured us. We also repeatedly mentioned that we had already purchased insurance and didn't need any additional coverage, but she concealed other significant fees from us and didn't provide a paper contract, only an email. This email was sent to the car rental platform. When we returned the car, we found out there was an extra 600 euros to pay. The return agent tried to force us to sign and agree to pay. We proactively contacted the car rental platform, and they mentioned our emails were flagged, indicating an issue, though we had not contacted them previously. Our experience with Avis was so poor that we wouldn't even give them a single star. We thought being a large company, they would provide better service, but even large companies deceive Chinese customers.
