What types of cars can I rent in Detroit?

Compacts, SUVs and full-size vehicles are other options to consider.

Where can I find a Detroit car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of homework. Found a Detroit outlet that does rent to under 25s? Great! Just keep in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering will have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Detroit with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the U.S, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home vehicle. Please read the regulations before booking!
