How old do you have to be to rent a car in Knoxville?
Knoxville requires drivers to be 21 and over to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and tighter rental conditions. Most providers impose a young renter fee in addition to the usual rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like compact and economy) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Knoxville?

Where can I find a Knoxville car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Knoxville rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, some companies will charge extra fees. It's good to know this before arriving at the desk so you can budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
Can I drive in Knoxville with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
