What types of cars can I rent in Rome?

Plus, their small size makes them well-suited to darting around cities, where streets are crowded and parking can be tough. But your options don’t end there.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Rome?
Rome requires drivers to be at least 21 to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and tighter home conditions. Most companies impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like mid-size and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Rome?
Your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Opting out of the company’s insurance plan? In that case, you’re also likely to need proof of your own coverage. Rules may differ between home companies, so be sure to read through your policy.
What is the cheapest car rental in Rome?
The lowest car rental rate in Rome within the past seven days was just AU$176 per day. The second best deal snapped up by happy travellers was AU$197. These rates were available on Expedia, with a holiday home 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 Rome?
You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Rome, so go on and extend your stay! Just enter your trip information into our long-term car rental deals page and reserve your perfect ride.
Where can I find a Rome car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Rome holiday home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 some will charge extra costs. It’s best to know this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Every holiday home car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
Can I drive in Rome with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car 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’ll need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you leave the lot to 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 go off-roading with your home. Please read the details before booking!
