How do I find the best car hire deals in Manhattan with Expedia?
Scoring an amazing deal on your Manhattan rental car is a breeze with Expedia. Choose your preferred car class, add some details and compare prices across major brands. Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You'll score even more savings when you create a holiday package.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Manhattan?
You need to be at least 21 to grab the keys to a rental car in Manhattan. Bear in mind that young drivers may only be able to hire from a few car categories, such as compact, economy and medium size. Higher age limits usually apply for specialty and luxury vehicles. Many companies will also charge an additional fee for young renters. Read through the rules before clicking book and factor any extra fees into your holiday budget.
What do you need to hire a car in Manhattan?
Any rental company you choose will require two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your car.
What is the cheapest car hire in Manhattan?
With car hire rates starting from as low as and a day in Manhattan within the past seven days, you'll be cruising off with your own incredible deal before you know it.

Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Manhattan?
Yes, and the great news is providers often offer lower prices the longer your rental term. Explore our long-term car rental deals in Manhattan and drive away with an incredible bargain.
Where can I find a Manhattan hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to hire a car in Manhattan, we recommend checking the terms and conditions of the car rental companies you're interested in. Some may hire to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra costs if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any unwanted surprises at the rental desk, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
Can I drive in Manhattan with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., be aware that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states 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 car hire company before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hired vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
