If you're planning to rent a car in Ikaria, it's good to know what the vehicle insurance includes. At Ikaria Kampos Cars, we offer CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) insurancewhich provides significant financial protection.
Let’s take a closer look at what it is, what it covers, and how it differs from basic insurance.
✅ What does Basic Insurance include?
Basic (or standard) insurance covers the following:
- Damages to third parties
- Bodily injury to third parties
📌 However, it does not cover:
- Damages to the vehicle you're driving
- Damages caused by your fault
- Theft or damage to the car
In case of an accident where you're at fault, the repair costs for the car will be entirely charged to you..
🚘 What does the CDW Insurance offer?
CDW is a protection for the car you're renting. Specifically:
- In case of damage, You are only responsible for the first €500 to €1,500€ (depending on the vehicle category) plus VAT.
- The remaining cost is covered by the insurance
- It’s valid only if the Highway Code hasn’t been violated
This protects you from high costs and unforeseen charges.
