Sixt FCAR

Toyota Camry

The Camry from Toyota is a very nice car from the middle class. With the elegant notchback the car is a real eye-catcher. The car is exclusively available with a 218 hp hybrid drive. This means that the Camry has a fair amount of power to put on the road. In around 8 seconds, the engine catapults the Toyota to 60mph. Consumption is just 5.5 liters of premium gasoline. The interior of the Toyota convinces above all with a very large amount of space for all occupants, so that it is by no means cramped. The trunk also offers plenty of storage space with over 524 liters of volume. On the road, the comfortable chassis is quickly noticed. Although the Camry has a number of safety systems such as emergency brake assist, active lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control, the car is always secure on the road. Even a jerky turn-in does not let the Toyota lose its composure at all and precisely steer through any curve at high speeds at any time.

VW Passat

The VW Passat is considered a particularly frequently sold car. In the current model generation, many things have been revised and modernized. Although the appearance remained almost unchanged, the assistance systems and engines have changed quite a bit. At Sixt, the Passat is usually equipped with the modern Matrix light at the front. Thanks to the latest technology, this does not dazzle oncoming traffic. To better warn traffic at the rear, even the light beam at the taillights changes. The interior of the Wolfsburger is of course also equipped with voice assistance and an on-board computer. Unfortunately, the voice control in particular reacts quite slowly. In terms of assistance systems, the Passat from Sixt is up to date. There is, of course, a lane departure warning system and distance cruise control. Even the data from the navigation system is taken into account. This means that the car can reduce its speed independently before a sharp bend. A very big plus in terms of safety. Frequently in the Sixt fleet there is the Passat with a four-cylinder and 190PS turbo gasoline engine. In just 7.5 seconds, the VW is already at a speed of 60mph. For a quick change of gears provides a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Subaru Legacy

Significantly more modern is the Legacy from Subaru. Visually, not only the exterior has changed a lot, but also the interior has become much more modern and high-quality. The wide fenders give the sedan with notchback a larger and more massive appearance. Inside, some digital technology has been scaffolded. Of course, the Subaru now also has a touchscreen display that controls the central multimedia functions. With a screen diagonal of around 11.7 inches, this is just the right size. To offer something to the passengers as well, the Legacy has been equipped with a WLAN hotspot. Many small details make the entire interior extremely high-quality. For example, the driver’s seat has a three-level support for the thighs or seat ventilation. Those who like to listen to music will have a lot of fun with the Harman-Kardon sound system, which does not compromise on quality even when driving fast on the highway. In the Sixt fleet, the Subaru comes with either 17 or 18 inch alloy wheels. Compared to the previous model, the suspension of the current model generation provides a lot more feedback. The steering also responds precisely at all speeds. Thanks to several safety systems, such as blind spot or lane departure warning, safety is by no means neglected. At Sixt, the Legacy is equipped with a 264hp four-cylinder engine. In conjunction with the (Continuously Variable Transmission) and 376 Newton meters, the Subaru manages the sprint in just 6 seconds to 60mph.

Honda Accord

Vehicles from Honda are particularly durable and promise a high standard of quality. Especially in the endurance test, the Accord performs particularly well. So why not try the Honda as a rental car from the middle class. With over 180HP and 350Nm in the fleet of Sixt, this car can also keep up well in the upper segment. Just 8 seconds the Accord needs for its sprint to 60mph. The consumption with under 7 liters of diesel is quite acceptable. The automatic transmission shifts quietly and completely unagitated, but can change gears quite quickly when kicked down. Of course, there are also some safety systems in this car. For example, the CMBS can independently initiate emergency braking or the adaptive cruise control ensures the necessary distance to the traffic ahead. Overall, the interior looks much more appealing and well thought-out compared to the predecessor model. The seats in particular can convince us of their comfort even after a long drive. Even though the vehicle silhouette looks very good, this is unfortunately at the expense of the storage space in the trunk. With only 406 liters of volume, there could be a bit more space.

Chrysler 300

Sixt of course offers the Chrysler 300 in the middle class in the USA. No wonder that this car can be found on the station parking lots in large numbers. The large wheels and the long radiator, make the Chrysler a real highlight. Some Europeans would also like to see such a car in Europe. After all, who wouldn’t want to go for a drive with this massive and angular look?  Certainly, the workmanship of some competitors is on a higher level, but the flagship has a lot of standard accessories integrated. We particularly like the driving stability in the Chrysler. Even at high speeds on the highway, the ESP takes corrective action and immediately brings the car back on track. Even fast cornering is no problem with the Chrysler, because the driving stability is unique compared to the competition. Despite the high performance under the hood, the engine’s smoothness is quite convincing. Unfortunately, the high weight is at the expense of acceleration. Nevertheless, the V8 engine accelerates the Chrysler to 60mph in under 6.4 seconds. Inside, all occupants will feel right at home. Both in the front and rear seats, the space is very generous. The operation of all important functions is neatly arranged and easy to handle.
