  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car hire website before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car hire. Please read the details before booking!
