What happens if I need to cancel my Downey car reservation?
Our Customer Service Portal has all the details about this. In most situations, full refunds are provided if a prepaid booking is cancelled more than six hours prior to pick-up. It's a good idea to scan your hire agreement to double-check if there are any exemptions.
What types of cars can I rent in Downey?
From affordable economy rides to premium cars and spacious SUVs, you have plenty of choice. But if you're looking for something in the middle, go for an intermediate vehicle. The most sought-after rental in Downey is more comfortable than a compact or economy car. Another bonus? There's more room for legs and luggage. Exploring Downey will be easy and fun in an intermediate.
Where can I go on a road trip from Downey?
Downey is full of fun adventures, but don't restrict yourself to just one place. Rent some wheels and hit the open road to see what else awaits in the wider region. Here are a few ideas:
- You'll find San Diego Zoo and loads of other amazing sights in San Diego County. From Downey, it's around 100 miles away.
- Your next stop? Santa Barbara, which is around 95 miles away. Mission Santa Barbara is one local highlight you won't want to miss.

How do I find the best car hire deals in Downey with Expedia?
Scoring the best deal on your Downey rental car is a piece of cake with Expedia. Choose your preferred car class, add in a few more details and compare the offers across big-name suppliers. Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You'll score even more savings when you combine your bookings into a package.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Downey?
Downey requires drivers to be at least 21 to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and some choice restrictions. Many companies impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young drivers, restrictions usually apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to hire a car in Downey?
A current driver's license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ from rental company to rental company, so read through your policy.
What is the cheapest car hire in Downey?
The lowest rate for a hired car in Downey within the past seven days was just £31 per day. The second best deal to be had was £36. 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 hire a car for a month or longer in Downey?
Yes, so you won't need to rebook a hire vehicle halfway through your holiday. Head to our long-term car hire deals page, enter your information and reserve a ride to call your own for the length of your escape.
Where can I find a Downey hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Downey providers will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Downey with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the United States, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hiring a car in the U.S. Are:
- Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the hired car company before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
- Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a hire car. Please read the regulations before you book!
