An important client to welcome, a gala evening, a surprise: some moments deserve better than a taxi. In Lyon, Corsiva offers its prestige cars self-drive or with a chauffeur, handed over at Lyon Part-Dieu station or wherever you choose. Here is how to pick the format, the car and the options, and when to book.

In brief

Five things to know
  • Two formats: self-drive, booked online; or with a chauffeur, on quote.
  • Chauffeur in suit and tie: €400 per day on top of the car rental, travel costs quoted case by case.
  • Weddings: see Corsiva Mariages.
  • Options: champagne on board or a bouquet of flowers (€60 each), late return until 11pm (€120).
  • Tolls never included; free cancellation up to 7 days before.

Self-drive or with a chauffeur

Self-drive, you book the car online just like a standard rental: it is handed over at Lyon Part-Dieu station (the price is shown when you book) or at your address (on quote), and it is yours for at least a day, or two if the rental covers a weekend. 200 km a day and fully comprehensive insurance are included.

With a chauffeur, there is nothing for you to manage. The chauffeur, a professional in suit and tie and polished shoes, with smooth and discreet driving, takes care of every journey; you can even send us a playlist. The chauffeur is added to the car rental for €400 per day. Travel costs to Lyon do not follow the usual delivery rates: they are quoted case by case, based on the journeys planned.

For a wedding

For the big day, everything happens on our dedicated site, Corsiva Mariages: decorated cars with a chauffeur in a suit and 5-hour or 8-hour packages, in Lyon and nearby.

Business and conferences

Lyon hosts conferences and trade fairs all year round: at the Cité Internationale, at Eurexpo, in the hotels of Part-Dieu and the Presqu'île. A car with chauffeur lets you meet a client or a speaker at the airport or the station, move from one meeting to the next without looking for parking, and work on the way.

  • Transfers to and from Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport or Lyon Part-Dieu station, by the trip.
  • Day hire: the chauffeur stays available between meetings, lunch and the drive back to the hotel.

For a busy day, prepare the list of stops and times: we go through it with you when we quote, to check the journey times.

Galas, birthdays, surprises

For a birthday, a proposal, a gala evening or a weekend to give as a gift, self-drive is often all you need. Two options turn the key handover into a moment: champagne on board and a personalised bouquet of flowers, €60 each. If the evening runs late, a late return until 11pm costs €120.

For a photo shoot, a music video or brand content, our cars can also pose in Lyon, on request: tell us about your project on +33 4 80 81 91 38.
