The cost of renting a car varies widely depending on location, rental company, car type, and duration. Here’s a breakdown of what affects daily rental rates.
Car Type and Cost
- Economy Cars: $30 – $50 per day
- Sedans & Midsize SUVs: $50 – $80 per day
- Luxury Cars: $100 – $300 per day
Rental Duration
Longer rentals often include discounts, reducing the daily cost. A one-week rental may be cheaper per day than a single-day hire.
Location & Season
Airport rentals tend to be pricier due to convenience fees. Peak seasons, such as holidays, also drive up costs.
Additional Fees
- Insurance: $10 – $30 per day
- Extra Driver Fee: $5 – $15 per day
- Young Driver Fee: $20 – $40 per day
To save money, book in advance, compare rental agencies, and check for discounts or loyalty programs.
