Happy Birthday to my incredible Mom 🎂🎉 Oh and watch Part 2: ruclips.net/video/F952bSrtB6w/видео.html Questions & Tips on Renting a Tesla via Hertz in Europe... One of the questions I've been asked is if you need a special drivers license as an American driving in Europe?? Most countries you don't like Germany, but there are a handful including Poland where you do need what's called an International Driver's Permit. You can get one for $20 in 15 minutes from any AAA location. A few other notes about renting... Same $200 deposit on a credit card just like the States. Supercharging is paid by Hertz, but then deducted from your deposit upon return. Traffic tickets are also billed to Hertz and then charged to your card on file. Make sure to check your mileage before and after by taking a photo. Also take some quick photos/video of the inside/outside of the car and when you return it, make sure to return it with at least 70% battery and take a picture with your phone when exiting the car. They tried charging me around $170 for supposedly returning it with less than 70%. Luckily I had photos & video that were time-stamped and had geo-location showing I returned it with 98%. After waiting on hold for a while was refunded for the charge. So always take photos of everything. I can't stress that enough.
Also... forgive me for my terrible pronunciation of some European cities. Specifically Wroclaw, Poland which sounds completely different than the spelling 🤯
Was so much fun to meet you and chat. In the city where I lived half my life. And you mum is mega cool! Bersteland is the probably worst SuC location of all. Sometimes stopped there in the past but it is in the middle of nowhere, no restaurant, not even a nice toilet. 😂 Kostmoloty is a very good stop, I use it all the time when going to Poznan and Warsaw for work. It is easy to pronounce for an American : "Kostomwoty". Germany have trouble because it is peonounced like the English W and the Germans pronounce that as a V 😂
Just for clarification, if the VIN of the car begins with LRW it doesn’t mean Long Range, it’s the code for the Gigafactory Shanghai. So the car was produced in China 😉
Hi Bryan, great that you visited Europe, but next time you should do a longer road trip. There's so much to see. At example, I did a road trip in autumn 2021 with my then new Model 3: Started in Germany over Vienna (Austra), Bratislava (Slovakia), Györ, Budapest, Szeged (Hungary), Timisoara (Romania), Belgrade, Nis (Serbia), Pristina, Przeren (Kosovo), Tirana (Albania), Podgorica (Montenegro), Ferry to Italy and then over Rome and Pisa and over the Alps back home. A mountain pass is much fun to drive with an Tesla. The Serbs are very proud of Nikola Tesla. There is a statue in Belgrade, a Museum with all his documents and also his funerary urn. Charing was also no problem. I charged mostly with 11 kW and also for free, because on a road trip you have time. After sightseeing the battery was mostly on 100 %.
Thanks! I hope to do a longer one later this summer. This one was a birthday present for my Mom who is originally from Germany so we only had about 10 days available. I'd love to do one through Switzerland as well as Spain, Italy, Prague later this summer. Thanks for watching and for the suggestions. 😀
Good to see you spending precious time with your mother. These are the memories that will be etched in your mind forever. Made remember the trips I spent with my Mom, who's no longer here on Earth. Enjoy the trip ❤
The Europe early model S used a European plug called a Mennekes Type 2 charging port, but reinforced it for higher power to allow Supercharging. They gave it up when Europe required use of CCS and they offered a retrofit to anyone who wanted to switch their car to CCS
Awesome! Thank you for the explanation 👍 It threw me off for sure as the design was similar to the new Magic Dock in the US that just started going in, but since Europe was already on CCS, it threw me for a loop. Appreciate it 😀
I remember when I took a 1 1/2 drive to the Fremont Factory to get a glimpse of the new model 3.. and I was so happy to find 3 of them in the parking lot. I was driving a Chevy Volt back then and had one reserved. I thought it looked amazing, but then when it first came out they were about $60k .. just not the $35,000 car I thought it would be and I bought a used p85 for $49k instead. I loved that car. and put 121,000 miles on it before selling it during the pandemic when used car prices went crazy and now I drive a model Y. Today there is a $35,000 model 3 :)
What a great video! Thank you for putting this together, I can imagine how much work it takes, but it's excellent and the quality is amazing. So happy for your mom; my mother was born overseas as well, so I know how much it means for them to go back "home." Thinking of renting a Tesla in France next time we go, and this is giving me a lot of confidence that it's doable and pretty straightforward. Not being stressed about having the correct chip and pin card at unmanned gas stations will be a huge relief, ha. Thanks again, Bryan, loved this and can't wait for the next one!
Thank you so much! Yeah, we had so much fun driving through the countryside. I felt like the highways were in much better shape than the US and there was virtually zero trash on the roads which is a far cry from what I see here. Driving was actually not an issue after getting over the initial nervousness. If the steering wheel is on the normal side and driving is as well... you'll be fine 👍🏻 Can't wait to hear about how driving in France is 😀
@@bryanhauer Drove in the UK a few times and it is definitely beyond nerve-wracking, lol. Takes a couple of days to get used to for sure. Like your experience, the tiny, narrow town center roads were a little terrifying, and figuring out the unmanned toll system in France was loads of fun when they used to be exact change, all coins only. It's part of the adventure, though, and totally worth it to get out there and explore. You also get some good, "remember when we got stuck at that toll booth" stories, which admittedly are a lot funnier now than at the time, lol. 😊
@@harryhotspur1403 Haha. Yes, a lot of fun to laugh about them now, but at the time it doesn't seem as funny 🤣 As I always say though... it's all part of the experience 😉
What a first class trip you took your mom on! Upgraded seats on the plane and the train. Great hotels. Great food. Even a great car to chauffeur her around in!
Thanks Jackie! Yeah, it was really beautiful in that area with lots of really old buildings and cobblestone streets. We really enjoyed ourselves 😀 Thanks so much for watching!
I also, after watching many of your videos, purchased a Yakima 1600 roof-top box (black) for my black Model Y long range. I haven't mounted it yet. However, I recently noticed you removed yours. Was it due to noise, reduced mileage, or both?
@@jonrico7937 I mainly just like trying new things and am sometimes sent these products by companies to test (although I'll never promote a product I don't already use and love), but I will say that while I love the look of the rooftop box, the range reduction and noise was annoying at times. It didn't really affect my trips too much, but again I like tinkering with my setup constantly so am just trying something new. Both the rooftop and rear cargo boxes are great options. For instance if you want to put on a bike rack, you can, but I can't as I'm already close to my hitch weight limit for racks/cargo boxes. Pros and cons to both.
Bryan, I love your videos. I hope you enjoyed the trip. Now you know our type 2 plug 😬By the way, it's not old, it's used for AC charging up to 22kw max. A classic wallbox for home has 11kw charging power and type 2 plugs. All fast charging stations have DC and CCS plugs. If you ever plan a road trip through Switzerland and need information, contact me. Kind regards from Zurich. Stefan🤗👍
Thanks Stefan! Appreciate the explanation 👍 I do plan to head to Switzerland later this summer so will definitely let you know. I’ve been there once before, but hope to road trip through that area this time.
Thanks! It did seem like the avg price was around $0.45/kWh which is definitely on the higher end of what we pay here in the states. That’s peak pricing. Appreciate you watching 👍
Great video. What a super trip for both of you. And do nice that you are doing this as a novice European traveler, and doing so in a Tesla. Thanks for the great content.
@@bryanhauer I'm serious, DM me anytime. We're small town right in the middle of Slovakia (and Europe). Called Banska Bystrica. Awesome place, awesome square. Amazing food, coffee, drinks. I'm waiting for my Model Y in midnight cherry red (that new Berlin color), till summer will be in my garage 👌 if it could fit in your RUclips content, I'm here 😊
@@bryanhauer deal. You can find me on Facebook and Instagram with this same name and picture. And yes, that color will be sick 😊 btw nice video, your mom is such a nice and humble lady. Hope you enjoyed your first ride in Europe. It's basically the same as in US, but what I'm missing here is "stop sign policy" first in, first out and missing so much you can turn right if sign doesn't says otherwise. Regarding your question to euro - yes, we have cents as are in dollars. Take care man! Hope to see you in summer 👌
@@bryanhauer for the record, I’m from Mpls, retired to Palm Springs CA. I leased a 2021 Model S LR, then bought a 2022 Model Y LR. Loved both, but the Model Y suits me better. Great videos!
Major props to you, Bryan, for being such a gracious and considerate son! (Ditto to your lovely mom.) This episode really registered with me, as I have fond memories of my time and road trips in Deutschland. I’m glad you didn’t experience any ’ladestau’ at the chargers. When at the Superchargers, were you able to use your own Tesla account to pay? Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
Thanks so much, Vlad 😀 we sure had a good time. I was not able to connect my account, but charging is paid for automatically by Hertz and then when you drop the car off it just deducts that from the $200 deposit using a credit card. In fact in next week’s video you’ll see I get a ticket from one of those camera speed traps and that was also automatically billed to Hertz and then they charge me. Luckily it was only $35. Thank you for watching!
They just deduct any Supercharger costs from the $200 deposit or if it goes over that will charge your credit card on file. It was a pretty seamless experience.
If you make it further south to Heidelberg, Germany, let me know! I’m an American expat and Model Y driver. Have a great time on this side of the pond!
Thanks Ryan! We’re back stateside now, but had an amazing trip. I plan to be back later in the summer so will let you know if I head that way. Appreciate it 👍
8000 subs. Nice :) I was really looking forward to watching the videos from Europe, it's fun to see "our" place in this world, through other eyes. Especially when you come through Denmark :)
Thanks! 😃 We had so much fun! I really enjoyed Denmark and that will be a big part of the Part 2 video Sunday 👍🏻 I plan to head back to Denmark this summer as well.
@@bryanhauer Nice. Copenhagen again? My sister lives in Copenhagen, it's such a great place to go on vacation. I live in the more "boring" side of Denmark, in a small town called Skive (Jutland), but .. we have the nature around us ;)
🤣 So true. I actually just looked up the correct pronunciation and my God is it completely different than it is written 🤯 I promise I will learn some Polish and speak it and say the cities correctly 😀 I also noticed how fast Polish people speak. It seems much more difficult to learn than German. Anyways... thank you for watching!
Hi Brian! I was on a road trip in Canada and the US with my wife from June to December 2023 and found it incredibly fascinating, especially the differences to us in Germany or Europe. Now it's interesting for me to see what differences you notice in Europe. Are you currently still traveling in Europe? If so and you can plan it, you are cordially invited to come to us! We live right next to Munich Airport and could show you a lot in Bavaria...😃👍🏼
Thank you so much! We are back in the US now, but I hope to come there again later this summer and will for sure let you know as I would love to meet up. I've been to Munich once before, but anytime I have a chance to meet up with a local I would not miss the opportunity. 😀
Recently got a Model 3 LR and have been binge watching almost all your videos since the first season. Particularly like this video. Question: when you charged at a Tesla Supercharger how does it link to your Credit Card? Do you somehow link the app to that card as well?
Thanks so much! Typically I’d add my credit card to the app, but when you rent you can’t do that so charging is automatically billed to the rental car company and since I have my card on file with them for the security deposit they just charge my card for all charging sessions when I return the car. Hope that helps! I appreciate you watching 😀
@@bryanhauer Thanks, that's what I thought since the car is lined to Hertz. I just finished watching part 2. I typically travel to Germany 2 -3 times a year but have never gotten a car. Always take the rail system (Deutsche Bahn). You've inspired me to get a Tesla. BTW I'm always curious when I watch your videos to see what you've been listening to (as shown on the screen).Great videos - thanks!
@@mannymota3442 Yeah, it was really fun to have a car while I was there. I hope to do it again soon. For Poland I did need an international drivers permit, but was able to obtain that through AAA here in the US for $20 and only took about 15 minutes. Germany I didn't need it.
Great video Bryan! Happy birthday to your mom! By the way, do you need an international driver's license to rent a car in Europe and drive as an American?
Thank you 🙏 Great question... in most of Europe you don't. For instance in Denmark or Germany you don't, but Poland is on a small list of countries that you do. I got mine from a AAA office near my house. Took about 15 minutes and $20. It was super easy.

So cute of you to bring your mom. I'm going to visit my mom tomorrow just because of this video. Thank you
Awe, that’s awesome ❤️

We really enjoyed our lunch together and wish we all would have had a bit more time that day, but we’ll do it again sometime soon 😀
Just for clarification, if the VIN of the car begins with LRW it doesn’t mean Long Range, it’s the code for the Gigafactory Shanghai. So the car was produced in China 😉
Ahh ok 👍
Euros and Cents is correct ;)
Thank you 🙏
Way cool to ride along with you and your mom! Brings back memories of my time in Europe. Enjoy the history all around you and those narrow roads!
Glad you enjoyed it, Mike 😀 I really enjoyed being there and plan to go back again later this summer.
