If you need a car for long trips, then a car subscription is the ideal solution. Enjoy freedom, comfort and zero hassle.
1. The flexibility everyone is looking for.
Long-term car rental is not a headache. On the contrary. By opting for a car subscription, which can be as long as 12 months and extended if you wish, Xtracars gives you the freedom to drive the ideal car for whatever your journey. You read that right. You can start with an SUV and upgrade to a family car for the rest of your contract, for example.
2. Comfort and safety for you and yours.
When you're looking for a car for long trips, you need to look at a few criteria such as comfort, space and equipment. After all, you're still going to spend some time in it, so it should offer you a unique driving experience, to say the least.
With Xtracars, you have access to all this, plus a range of car rental options ready to take on any road or adventure. No worries about unexpected maintenance or taxes such as IUC. Everything is included with us.

Travelling by plane or relying on public transport can be a nightmare. The tight schedules, the delays and the suitcases that no one will carry for you. With a car subscription, you decide your own pace, destination and timetable, so you can enjoy your trip to the full.

From the mountains of Trás-os-Montes to the plains of Alentejo and the beaches of the Algarve, this journey reveals Portugal's impressive landscapes. In addition to the landscapes, the EN2 also allows us to get to know the country's history and heritage, along cities full of tradition and culture to discover.
