What types of cars can I rent in New York?
Crowded city streets and tight parking spaces are no problem for an economy car — the most sought-after type of rental in New York. Slide behind the wheel of one of these and maneuver around traffic like a dream. Affordable, reliable and with excellent mileage, these small rides pack a punch. But New York can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are other options to consider.
Where can I go on a road trip from New York?
New York is full of adventures, but don’t restrict yourself to one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the open road to see what else awaits in the surrounding area. Here are some great options we’ve come up with:

  • Make your way to Philadelphia for an excellent sightseeing experience. Roughly 85 mi from New York, it’s home to numerous cool attractions like Liberty Bell Center.
  • Why not check out the best of New Haven too? Major sights in this colorful city include Yale University. New Haven is approximately 65 mi from New York.

Scoring an amazing deal on your New York rental car is easy with Expedia. Choose your preferred ride, add some details and compare prices from leading suppliers. Why not add hotels and flights to your booking? You’ll unlock even more savings when you combine your bookings into a package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in New York?
In New York, the rule is usually 18 and over. Most outlets will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as large cars, and require the purchase of inclusive insurance. It’s a good idea to check the fine print before booking your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in New York?
While requirements may differ between rental car outlets, the two main things you’ll need are a current driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. You don’t need to take out auto insurance with your rental provider. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
What is the cheapest car rental in New York?
The two cheapest daily prices offered in New York within the past seven days were $40 and $49. Now that’s what we’d call a fantastic deal! 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 rent a car for a month or longer in New York?
Yes, and the awesome news is suppliers often offer lower rates the longer you rent. Scroll through our long-term car rental deals in New York and hit the road with an amazing bargain.
Where can I find a New York car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver looking for a car rental in New York, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in New York?
It’s smart to have collision damage protection to cover your New York car rental against accident damage, theft and vandalism. And with Expedia, you can easily purchase this insurance for your vehicle during the booking process. Providing up to $35,000 in primary coverage, it also offers round-the-clock emergency help and a zero-dollar deductible in the event of a claim. Plans changed? If you cancel your policy before your scheduled collection time, you’ll receive a full refund.
