You can use the majority of hvv switch points with cars from MILES, SIXT share and Free2move to their full extent, i.e. you can rent, end a rental or stop off. However, some hvv switch points are located outside the respective business areas of the car sharing providers. Please note that rentals can only be terminated at hvv switch points that are located in the respective business area of the car sharing provider.

With cars from cambio and Dorfstromer, you can stop at all hvv switch points, but only end the rental where it was started.

Tip: The business areas of MILES, SIXT share and Free2move are displayed in the hvv switch app after selecting a car.
