Hire is not live yet. This registers an early-access request so we can prioritise vehicles, cities and events — no payment details are requested and nothing is confirmed until approved options launch.

Overnight use depends on the vehicle, location and permissions. Event entry and vehicle-camping passes are usually separate from vehicle hire.
