View company profile

Sixt SE is an international mobility service provider with a rich history dating back to its founding in 1912 by Martin Sixt in Munich, Germany. Initially established with a modest fleet of three cars, it was the first car rental company in Bavaria. Over the decades, Sixt has evolved from a local car rental business into a global leader in premium mobility services. The company operates in over 100 countries with approximately 2,000 locations worldwide. Sixt SE functions as the parent and holding company of the Sixt Group, which is active in various business areas including vehicle rental (SIXT rent), car sharing (SIXT share), ride-hailing (SIXT ride), and car subscriptions (SIXT+). These services are integrated into a single mobility platform called ONE, accessible via the SIXT App.

The company has consistently demonstrated a commitment to customer orientation, innovation, and strong technological competence. Sixt was a pioneer in the industry, being the first car rental company with a website and the first to accept mobile reservations. A significant portion of Sixt's fleet consists of premium vehicles, and the company is known for its attractive price-performance ratio. The majority of the company remains owned by the Sixt family, who continue to manage its operations. In June 2021, Alexander Sixt and Konstantin Sixt were appointed as co-CEOs, succeeding their father Erich Sixt, who transitioned to Chairman of the Supervisory Board after more than 50 years at the helm. Sixt serves a diverse clientele, including private individuals, tourists, and corporate clients across various industries. The company has a significant presence in key markets such as the US, the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Sixt continues to expand its global footprint, including recent growth in North America and Australia.
