Pricing & Cost Guidance
All prices shown are indicative ranges only. Actual costs depend on your specific situation, location, and the third-party providers involved. We do not guarantee any price.
The following information is provided as general guidance to help you understand the factors that influence the cost of roadside assistance and related services in Austria and Germany. Prices are not set by ViennaRoad Desk but reflect typical market ranges observed from publicly available information.
Factors That Affect Cost
- Location: Urban areas generally have faster response and lower call-out fees than remote mountain locations.
- Time of day: Night-time, weekend, and public holiday call-outs typically attract a surcharge.
- Vehicle type: Larger vehicles (vans, motorhomes, HGVs) cost more to tow or repair roadside.
- Nature of fault: A flat tyre change is far less expensive than an engine fault requiring specialist diagnosis.
- Distance to nearest workshop: Towing over long distances increases cost significantly.
- Membership status: Members of ÖAMTC or ARBÖ benefit from reduced or waived call-out fees.
