We were vacationing in Bermuda September 1-8, 2024. We contacted Diana about a week or so before our arrival to reserve a car for our stay. The car we were hoping to rent, a Hurcn, was not going to be available until mid-week and, as in the United States, Labor Day is celebrated in Bermuda which made it more challenging to have a car available on Labor Day Monday. Diana offered another EV model for us to rent for 2 days before we switched to the Hurcn and, delayed her day on the beach to open her office on Labor Day to rent us the car.
We had researched literally every EV rental company in Bermuda and can honestly say Bermi vehicles are the best quality and the best value.
Both Diana and Bermi owner, Mike, were attentive, knowledgeable and very personable. Understanding our transportation needs while on the island, they recommended we keep the first EV rather than switch to the more expensive Hurcn due to its battery range and interior space large enough to hold our fishing gear and anything else we needed to carry on our daily adventures on the island.
Over the 6 days we had the EV, we made approximately 50 trips and travelled approximately 200 miles all around Bermuda. We never ran out of battery life despite running the air conditioning every day. We charged the car at the end of each day and were good to go the entire next day.
Bermi cars have the best battery life, are in new/excellent condition and perform as promised. We cannot praise both the company and their EV offerings more. We highly recommend contacting Bermi for your EV rental when traveling around Bermuda.

It's Bermi Time! This was our second time renting a small electric two seater car from Localmotion (which has now branded itself as BermiTime according to a flyer in the office.) We first rented a smaller Bermi in 2022, and found it really a great option. This time we got a Swizzle, which is larger in terms of space for luggage, groceries, or whatever. The Swizzle is easy to drive, handles well, and even has air conditioning. An absolutely great option for multiple days in Bermuda. Having the Swizzle allowed us to stay in a fantastic cottage in Southampton Parish, instead of a large impersonal resort.
The staff is great. Communicated with Debbie initially, and she got us set up. We got a confirmation a few days ahead. We used a taxi to go to their facility on Happy Valley Road, where our car was waiting. A nice overview of the car was provided, and off we went. This really beats the heck out of renting a scooter, especially as we're not as young as we used to be!
We strongly recommend checking out Bermitime, Localmotion. Great service and an excellent way to get around the island

We were very happy with our Bermi experience! We like to be able to have the freedom to go wherever we want whenever want so we knew that renting an electric car was for us on Bermuda. Debbie was super-helpful working with me over the phone and email to get our reservation made before we arrived and also provided some additional flexibility when we got in much earlier in the day than anticipated. Chelsea was a great driving instructor and gave us lots of good info. We had a glitch with the speedometer in our Bermi after a few days and Mike was awesome to work with, meeting us at nearby locations to come work on it "out in the field." When he couldn't fix it right away, he swapped out the car for another and also returned the first to where we were staying after it was repaired. The car was drivable the whole time, just figured we had better let them know about issues right away and they were more than happy to help us and be super-accommodating. The car had plenty of room in the back for our medium-sized suitcase and 2 full backpacks. We always charged at our 2 rental apartments with no issues and never ran any lower than 65%. We highly recommend renting with Bermi!

I am a local and I always admired these cars when I see them on the roads or pass by their shop. My husband rented the Bermi for the weekend as a surprise for me for my special birthday. We went out and played "tourist" .
The staff are pleasant and helpful. The car is comfortable and has a really good range before you have to top it up. It is practically brand new and sleek with blue tooth, AC and lots of leg room and trunk space. The car is very easy to drive and is pretty powerful especially with the boost feature to get you over the hills.
We had so much fun driving around in the "pink panther" (we called it) and would highly recommend this vehicle for driving around Bermuda's roads. It may be a little more money than the other rentals, which we have used, but really worth it. This is a great option for getting around safely in Bermuda.

You can’t go wrong renting a Bermi. We have been coming to the island for 45 years and always rent a bike —a scooter. This time we went with an electric car for safety. However, besides that the benefits are many. Handles so well, easy to drive, never an issue with power on any hill, room for 2 in the front, you stay dry if it’s raining and there was a lot of rain this month. So you don’t get wet like you would on a bike. It handled all the puddles we encountered with no problem. And on those hot humid days the a/c works great, you can even play your music. Michael Swan the owner is a gem to deal with. Always available to help, easy to get ahold of and attentive with any questions you might have. You can’t go wrong with one of these electrics. We will rent again.

We rented a Swizzle for 8 days and had an excellent time with it. We have been going to Bermuda for over 20 years, and in the past have rented scooters, Mini Hummer, and Tazzari, This by far comes closest to driving and feeling like a rel car. We had a small problem with the first vehicle. The hatch got stuck closed and they immediately swapped it out for a new one which worked fine for the rest of the time we were there. It had a range of a 170 km or a 105 Miles, and that was dependent on how often you use the air conditioner, and if you used sport mode or not. It was always plenty of charge to last the day, and we really only needed to plug in overnight to recharge. We used it every day and traveled all over the island many times over. I would definitely rent with local motion again on our next visit.

This was our second trip to Bermuda and our first time renting a vehicle there. The folks at Bermie made it so very easy. They brought the Swizzle to our rental home, charged and ready to go! They went over the car with us and were happy to answer any questions. Reservations and returning were a breeze. Give them a call or send an email and they will get back to you. Honestly, talking with them is much better than just setting up something via the internet. They were able to gage our needs and give us the best option.
The Swizzle handled perfectly, even in a downpour when we had street bonding. It had enough storage for an outing, groceries and luggage. Rares were compatable to others on the island, however service exceeded expectations.

So tropically we rent a scooter. It’s definitely more affordable, however we heard so much about Localmotion and their EV’s we thought we would try it. Altho a little bit more expensive but well worth the extra $$$! The staff there are Incredible. The vehicle was clean, roomy. No problem getting a ton of groceries in the trunk space. Lots of leg room and had blue tooth and A/C. The Bermi swizzle only had to be charged for the night at our rental and had enough charge for the full day of traveling. Totally recommend Localmotion !! Don’t think I can ever go back to the scooter

This was the best place I could recommend anyone to rent a car from. The car held a charge from one end of the island to the other without an issue. It was spacious enough to hold our suitcase and a few bags. Mike and Deb were the nicest people I've ever dealt with and made the process enjoyable and reliable. We got locked out of our car in Hamilton and they drove out to rescue us with zero complaints. Love this place! Thanks guys!

We had the best time driving these little cars around Bermuda. We had a group of 8 and our itinerary was pushed forward by a full day - they were able to accommodate us at the last minute. Just wish we had more time on the island. I would for sure recommend this to anyone planning a visit to the island. Thanks for a great time!!

We are trying to rent a Bermi for our June vacation with the Locomotion Co in Hamilton. We received a price and request for information such such as drivers license, DOB, address etc. We responded with all requested information and never heard from them again. We emailed them twice requesting a simple confirmation with no response. We are ready to look elsewhere as we don't want to chance arriving with no vehicle rental, Is this company still in business? if not, where else would you recommend a Bermi rental? Thanks for your help. Sherry Chiarolanzio

We are considering renting a Bermi for our upcoming trip to Bermuda. Our party consists of two adults and a 9-year old. Does the Bermi accommodate three passengers? Some photos look like there is a tiny (child size) back seat in the Bermi. Before I get my hopes up about this rental, I was hopeful someone could clarify the seating. Thanks!

Unfortunately no. There are no cars that you can rent in Bermuda that offer more than two seats. It is a policy on the island.
