Temporary Transit (TT) is an alternative to car rental in Europe.
It is a French customs and tax provision based on the temporary admission. It allows any person residing outside the European Union or in an Overseas Department or Territory, to have a new vehicle during their stay in Europe and to acquire it, exempt from customs duties and VAT.
Due to this specific French registration, it allows for travel in Europe (excepted Albania, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iceland, Kossovo, Moldova, Montenegro, Northern Macedonia, Russia, Serbia, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom).
For your next travel in Europe, there is a better choice than renting: a brand new PEUGEOT with a Temporary Transit Tax-Free lease!
You travel as you like throughout Europe in a new car and with the following advantages of the temporary transit offer:
A multi-risk insurance policy irrespective of percentage covering:

WITH E-SAVE, CHARGE WHILE YOU DRIVE
When you use the e-SAVE function, the engine rotates the electric motor which is in the gearbox to recharge the battery until the programmed energy level is reached. With this function, the battery can be fully recharged (e-SAVE Max position).
You need to drive 2 km on average to recover 1 km of range (or 100 km on the motorway to recover 50 km of range). Once the set level is reached, the system switches to hybrid mode and maintains the level in the battery at the required threshold (10 km, 20 km or Max).
