What types of cars can I rent in Washington?
Not too small yet not too big, compact vehicles are the top choice for many visitors to Washington.

A compact car is roomier than an economy vehicle, which means you can travel around in a bit more comfort and style. Prefer a bit more legroom? Browse our intermediate, standard or full-size range.
