* Our car hire excess insurance comparison is updated annually. This table was last updated on the 7th August 2026 and based on quotes obtained directly from each competitor's website for a rental at Malaga airport from 10th August to 17th August 2026 for a mid-sized SUV (e.g. Nissan Qashqai or CUPRA Formentor) ** Based on the maximum 20% loyalty discount available to Cedar Tree Plus members, in most cases Cedar Tree Plus loyalty discount will vary between 15% and 20%, see Plus benefits for more information.
For example, if your excess with the car rental company was €750, and you damaged your rental vehicle, you would pay the rental company €750, and they would pay the remaining cost of the claim. You would then claim back the €750 you paid, from Cedar Tree. If you had alternatively taken the car rental company cover your excess would have been reduced to €0 saving you the hassle of paying and reclaiming.
Unlimited trips for a year covering up to £7,500 of excess across the policy duration.
Worldwide cover for up to 94 days per rental.
Cover up to 10 main drivers who can independently travel and hire a car.
Cover will automatically extend to named drivers you add to your Car Hire Agreement.

Reviews
Following the bereavement on my Mother in Law my husband and our family had to cancel our holiday. The team were very helpful when I had issues completing the claim online. They explained everything that was needed and when asking for further information made it clear what they were asking. The claim was resolved within three/four weeks and was completely stress free which given the circumstances was greatly appreciated.
Very helpful service from Charlie. He explained the process he needed to follow and what my answers meant for my policy. He was friendly and professional at all times.
Very friendly, and a quick process to up date my medical history.
