The rental company

McRent, the Erwin Hymer Group rental company

McRent is the motorhome rental brand of the Erwin Hymer Group, one of Europe’s major manufacturers and itself a subsidiary of the American company Thor Industries. In Germany, its home country, McRent has more than 40 depots across the country, often based at partner dealerships on the outskirts of major cities: Munich, Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Cologne, Stuttgart or Dresden.

The fleet comes from the group’s brands, such as Hymer, Bürstner, Dethleffs, Carado or Sunlight. It is organised into five ranges, from the Urban campervan to the Premium A-class motorhome, each available in Standard, Plus and Luxury depending on the equipment. The vehicles are recent and regularly renewed, then sold on second-hand.

In all the McRent offers observed by CoolDrive in Germany, mileage is unlimited and additional drivers are not charged. The excess observed is €2,000 and the security deposit is debited on the day of departure, then refunded on return if everything is in order.

Our verdict: a reliable rental company with a good level of service, quality vehicles and a large network. Its weak points: inflexible pick-up and drop-off times, and one-way hires between two depots are rarely offered.

Our view

McRent: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?

McRent is ideal if…

  • You want a recent motorhome from a major European brand
  • You are setting off from a major German city or airport, especially Munich or Berlin
  • You are planning a long road trip: mileage is unlimited
  • You are travelling with several drivers, at no extra cost
  • You are still choosing between a campervan, low-profile, overcab and A-class: five ranges cover every size

McRent is not ideal if…

  • You want to return the vehicle to a different depot from the one you set off from
  • You need to set off or return on a Sunday or at very flexible times
  • You are under 21
  • Your route goes through countries outside the European Union excluded by the rental company
  • You are looking for a 4x4 campervan for off-road tracks: look at CrossRent instead
Practical tips

Our tips for booking with McRent

  1. Choose the range before the model

    McRent hires by category: Urban for campervans, Compact and Comfort for low-profile and A-class motorhomes, Family for family overcab models, Premium for the top of the range. The Standard, Plus or Luxury level mainly changes the equipment. The exact model may vary from one depot to another within the booked category.

  2. Check the vehicle’s gross weight

    Most McRent motorhomes can be driven with a category B licence. Some models in the Premium range exceed 3.5 tonnes and require a C1 licence. The maximum authorised weight is shown in the offer details: check it before booking.

  3. Plan the security deposit on a credit card

    With McRent, the security deposit is actually debited on the day of departure, then refunded on return if the vehicle is returned in good condition. Check your credit card limit before you go: the excess observed in Germany is €2,000.

  4. Avoid weekend pick-ups and drop-offs

    Depots are usually open six days a week, and a surcharge may apply to Saturday or Sunday pick-ups and drop-offs. A weekday departure is often simpler and leaves more time for the vehicle handover.

  5. Add options to your booking

    Bedding kits, bath towels, camping kit, child seats or booster seats: add them to your CoolDrive booking. There is nothing to pay on site and everything is ready on the day of departure.

  6. Watch the how-to videos

    McRent publishes videos on using its vehicles in several languages. Watching them before you leave shortens the handover at the depot and avoids any uncertainty about the gas, water or waste emptying.

What travellers ask

Your questions about McRent

How old do you need to be to hire a McRent motorhome in Germany?

For most McRent models, you must be at least 21 years old and hold a category B licence. Motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes, especially in the Premium range, require a C1 licence and may require a higher age. The minimum age and length of licence holding required are stated in each offer: check them before booking.

Is mileage unlimited with McRent?

Yes: all McRent offers observed by CoolDrive in Germany include unlimited mileage, whatever the range. This is a clear advantage for a long road trip, for example from Bavaria to the Baltic. This is not the case with every rental company in the country: in our observations, Rent Easy and CrossRent offer limited mileage.

What is the difference between McRent and Rent Easy?

Both brands belong to the same group, Erwin Hymer. McRent offers more recent vehicles, five ranges from campervan to A-class and unlimited mileage in all the observed offers. Rent Easy hires out campervans, low-profile and overcab motorhomes from 25 German cities, with limited mileage in our observations. Compare the two for your dates in the search engine.

Which McRent range should I choose for my trip?

For two people, an Urban campervan can be parked anywhere and is enough for a tour of towns and countryside. For more comfort, a Compact or Comfort low-profile motorhome adds a proper shower room and a large bed. For families, a Family overcab motorhome offers up to six berths. The Premium range brings together the top-of-the-range A-class models.

How much does McRent hire cost in Germany?

According to our prices observed in October 2026 for a 14-day hire, a McRent campervan starts at €74 per day. In July, median prices are around €141 for a campervan, €163 for a low-profile motorhome and €189 for a large motorhome, mandatory fees included. Run a search with your dates for the exact price.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — McRent motorhome hire in Germany

Why book McRent with CoolDrive rather than directly?

With CoolDrive, you compare McRent with the country’s other rental companies in a single search and you book at the displayed price, mandatory fees included. The vehicle kit, crockery kit, levelling blocks, initial gas bottle, chemicals and bike rack are included in our McRent offers, and the packs offered by CoolDrive are added to the booking.

What are the excess and security deposit with McRent?

In the McRent offers observed in Germany, the excess is €2,000. It varies by country and model, and each offer states the amount. The security deposit is debited from your credit card on the day of departure, then refunded on return if the vehicle is returned in good condition. Ask our experts about options to reduce the excess.

Can you cross the border with a McRent motorhome?

Yes, trips to Germany’s neighbouring countries are generally allowed: France, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Denmark or Italy. However, some countries outside the European Union are excluded by the rental company. The list is in the offer terms: check it before planning your route, especially towards Eastern Europe or the Balkans.

Can you return a McRent motorhome to a different depot?

It is rarely possible: McRent offers few one-way hires, even between two German depots, and even fewer abroad. If your trip requires it, enter a different return city in the search: only the offers that accept it are displayed. Otherwise, plan a loop back to the departure depot.

What equipment is included in a McRent motorhome?

McRent vehicles are very well equipped. In CoolDrive offers, the vehicle kit, crockery kit, levelling blocks, initial gas bottle, toilet chemicals and bike rack are included. Bedding, towels, camping kit and child seats are optional: add them to your booking to find them ready at departure.

Are McRent depots open at weekends?

McRent depots are usually open six days a week, with pick-up and drop-off times set in advance. A surcharge may apply to Saturday or Sunday pick-ups and drop-offs, which are busier. The exact opening hours of your depot are shown in the offer details and in your booking confirmation.
