Kollektion 7 includes a choice of iconic German models, for a range of driving experiences: the luxury BMW M850i Cabriolet, BMW Z4, Mercedes-AMG GT and Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4-door coupe, Porsche 718 Boxster, Porsche Macan S, and Porsche Panamera E-Hybrid.

All models will be available in the colours of the German flag: black, red and yellow.

Each Kollektion 7 rental includes a guide detailing the most interesting sights and cultural highlights. Guests can also start sampling the local gastronomic treats as soon as they enter their chosen vehicle, thanks to a gift basket which provides a sample of local fare.

The two BMW convertibles — the BMW M850i Cabriolet and the BMW Z4 — combine sportiness with progressive design and exceptional comfort. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology and performance of 258 hp on the Z4, and 530 hp in the 8-cylinder twin-turbo BMW M850i, both offer an outstanding driving experience.

Currently available exclusively from Hertz, the Mercedes-AMG GT has been used as a safety car in Formula 1 since 2015. With a top speed of 304 km / h, the Mercedes-AMG GT combines sports car heritage with practicality. The Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4-door coupé is a top-of-the-range four-door model, and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds.

There are three models from Porsche in the Kollektion 7.

The Porsche 718 Boxster combines the spirit of the legendary Boxster series with striking design and, for the first time, a turbocharged 4-cylinder Boxer engine. The compact SUV Porsche Macan S blends sportiness, design and practicality with impressive efficiency.

The Porsche Panamera E-Hybrid demonstrates that top performance is also sustainable. With the electric sedan, drivers can cover 50 kilometers purely on electric power — and with the additional petrol engine, the Porsche offers 462 hp.

A themed Kollektion 7 lounge, featuring a dedicated logo in black, red and yellow, enables customers to relax in comfort ahead of their journey. Kollektion 7 customers benefit from comprehensive additional benefits such as a concierge service that accompanies customers to the Kollektion 7 pick-up areas and introduces them to the highlights of the vehicles; as well as a pick-up and preferred return service, for an accelerated rental experience.

Each of the seven locations will offer customers a unique, city-specific driving experience, giving visitors the opportunity to get to know the specific characteristics of different regions.
