No, SIXT maintains a 100% smoke-free fleet in the US and any type of smoking (pipe, cigarette, cigar) is prohibited in all SIXT vehicles. Just as renters are assessed a fee for cleaning the car's interior for excessive stains, dirt or soiling attributable to the renter’s use, customers will be assessed an additional charge if the car smells of smoke when it is returned.

Restrictions
May another person – except me – drive my Sixt+ car?
You can use your SIXT+ car with several drivers if you have added them to your subscription configuration. To ensure that your selected protection option also applies to additional drivers, we charge an additional driver fee per driver. The primary driver and additional driver(s) must be present at the Sixt location at the same time. If the additional driver is not present at the branch with the main driver, we cannot proceed with adding them to the contract. Of course, the primary driver and additional driver can register an additional driver at any SIXT station in the US at a later stage. An important note: in the event of damage, claims can be rejected if additional drivers are not registered in the rental contract.
Is smoking permitted in the Sixt rental vehicles?
Are pets allowed in the car?
Pets are allowed in rental vehicles. Customers must return their rental car in a clean condition and free of pet hair to avoid cleaning and detailing fees.
