How do I find the best car rental deals in Manhattan with Expedia?
Check customer ratings, choose your car type and compare prices from leading providers. Expedia makes it a cinch to nab the best deal on your rental wheels. Bundle your Manhattan car rental with flight or hotel bookings and drive away with even more savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Manhattan?
Drivers 21 and over can go road-tripping around Manhattan in a rental car. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally have fewer car categories to select from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to buy inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Manhattan?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — a current driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your car.
What is the cheapest car rental in Manhattan?
With car rental prices as low as and a day in Manhattan within the past seven days, you'll be zooming away with your own amazing deal before you know it. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Manhattan?
Yes, and you're sure to find your perfect set of wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Just enter your trip information and we'll list amazing offers from various reputable companies.
Where can I find a Manhattan car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of homework. Found a Manhattan supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Great news! Just bear in mind that extra fees often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're considering should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Manhattan with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
