Renting a Car in North America — Prices, Terms & What to Know
North America is a paradise for road trips and car hire. Prices can swing dramatically between airports, cities and time of year. A quick comparison before you book often saves you hundreds of dollars, particularly during summer and the Christmas holidays.
The most popular destinations are Florida, California and Hawaii in the USA, along with Canada and Mexico.
Always verify what's included in the insurance, how high the excess is, and the fuel policy. Common policies are "full-to-full" or "same level return". Keep an eye on surcharges for additional drivers, young drivers and cross-border travel.
Traffic flows on the right side throughout North America. Highway tolls are widespread, especially along the US East Coast. Many rental companies offer electronic toll payment as an optional add-on. For more detail, check our car rental guides.
Quick Checklist
- Compare price and terms carefully — excess, fuel policy and surprise charges matter
- Watch out for age surcharges: many companies add a fee for drivers under 25
- Check whether an international driving permit is required (it is in Mexico)
- Plan your route — distances are vast, and driving times add up fast
- Review one-way rental policies between states or provinces before booking
