What types of cars can I rent in Sydney?
Consider renting a full-size car. Whether it's because of their spacious interiors or nice features like leather seats, they're the first to book out in Sydney.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Sydney?
Rental vehicle rules in Sydney require drivers to be 21 and older. Are you a younger driver? A few surcharges and restrictions could apply. Rental suppliers impose what's known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions generally apply to the categories of cars available to young people too. Age limits may differ between providers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Sydney?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. Rules can differ between providers, so read your policy thoroughly.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Sydney?
Yes, so there's no need to rebook a rental vehicle halfway through your holiday. Go to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and find a ride that's all yours for the length of your break.
Where can I find a Sydney car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental companies operating in Sydney. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25, keep in mind that additional costs may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before you collect the car.
