What types of cars can I rent in Merced?
Bustling city streets and narrow parking spaces are no problem for an economy car — the most commonly booked type of rental in Merced. Take the wheel of one of these and manoeuvre around traffic like a dream. Affordable, reliable and good on gas, these small rides pack a punch. But Merced can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compact, mid-size and full-size vehicles are among your options.

  • Head off to Santa Clara for a fantastic sightseeing experience. Around 129 kilometres from Merced, it has numerous cool attractions, including California's Great America.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Merced?

You'll generally be restricted to a few car categories, such as economy and mid-size, and may also be required to take out comprehensive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Merced?
Two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you prefer to opt out. We recommend checking with your rental provider to avoid any problems.

Where can I find a Merced car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car if you're under 25 years in Merced often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, but other companies may not apply any extra costs for this age group. Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your preferred car company to avoid any surprise charges when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Merced with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
