Mobility in large cities such as Madrid is one of the great challenges to be faced in the 21st century when it comes to urban planning and environmental quality. Traffic limitations in urban areas lead to the development of more efficient transport formulas, which in turn adapt to people's needs.
This is the primary motivation behind SmartKey, a leap forward in urban mobility, which lets you rent a car without having to show up at an office to sign the contract. A car rental that adapts to you.
The Plaza de España is one of Madrid's nerve centres. Its proximity to important parts of the city makes it a regular transit point, whether you live or work in Madrid or are just passing through.
From Plaza de España it is easy to reach anywhere in Madrid city centre, take in the majesty of the Royal Palace, enjoy a musical on Gran Vía, watch the sunset from the Temple of Debod, go on a shopping spree in Puerta del Sol, check out the flea market in the Lavapiés neighbourhood, take a stroll and enjoy the Barrio de las Letras...
With your Centauro car you can then easily get to wherever you need to go. Whether to any suburban city such as Leganés, Pinto, Majadahonda, or anywhere else you want to go to.
There are many points of interest in Madrid that can be reached from Plaza de España in your Centauro connected car. Not far away is Casa de Campo, one of Madrid's green lungs, which houses the Parque de Atracciones and the Zoo. You can also check out the spectacular Madrid Río park, a space that has been reclaimed in recent years which runs alongside the Manzanares River with lots of green areas, swings for children, and play and leisure areas for the elderly.
Getting out of the city can also be an adventure that takes you to amazing places. Toledo is less than an hour's drive from Plaza de España and is one of Spain's most beautiful cities. Aranjuez is another place you can quickly reach with your Centauro car. What are you waiting for? Book your Centauro SmartKey now?
