Honestly, I'm interested in using at least hybrid car to drive in Fuerteventura too; just never found the time to ask.

Would even pay more for the privilege to drive an electric car for a few days on the island, just to try it out. I'm sure I'm not the only one and there's a market for it. They just have to see some interest from the customers, I guess.

The last electric car I saw in Fuerteventura was on the end of a towrope. Looked like being towed back to PR.

I did see a 'Gas Licuida' car today. It had a Cicar sticker on the back.

NO TENEMOS

GRACIAS
... they simply don't have any; not really fancy of the capitals at all.
On the other hand, this is the first reply I've ever managed to get from Payless. My previous two emails (regarding something else) got possibly lost in the internet/timeline void.

Still waiting for a couple more replies (Orlando and Avis) but I've already lost hope. It looks like we'll have to wait a bit longer to be able to hire electric cars at the airport.

...unless some smaller (resort) car hire companies do them. Huh

Had a negative reply from Avis regards any electric vehicle and no reply at all from Orlando.

To reply to the OP: Currently not possible to hire and electric car on the island, sorry. Let's try this again in a couple of years, hope the replies will be a bit more positive by then.
