The car rental companies at YYZ include Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Alamo.
  • When renting a car to drive around Toronto, ensure you familiarize yourself with the routes to get around the city and avoid traffic, especially during peak hours. Some of the most congested roads in Toronto include Don Valley Parkway, Gardiner Expressway, Highway 401, Yonge Street, and Eglinton Avenue experience heavier traffic during peak seasons. Consider renting a vehicle with a GPS navigation system to get real-time updates on traffic as you drive out. With the heavy traffic in Toronto at certain times of the day, consider hiring a vehicle with minimal fuel consumption as traffic increases fuel consumption; therefore, hiring a fuel-efficient car will enable you to save on fuel expenses even when driving on congested roads in Toronto.
  • If you have special needs, you can consider renting an accessible vehicle, as some of the rental companies in Toronto offer accessible cars to renters. The accessible cars feature spacious interiors, adaptive driving equipment, lowered floors, wheelchair lifts or ramps for easy entry and exit, and wheelchair restraints.

  • What are the requirements for renting a car in Toronto?

    When renting a car in Toronto, you must be at least 21 years. However, some of the rental companies may require the renters to be at least 25 years or incur an additional fee for the young renter option if the renter is between 21 and 24 years old. To complete the rental process, you must have a valid driver’s license, and identification documents, including a passport or ID card and a credit card. For some rental companies, using a debit card for payment is acceptable. You must also have your insurance card if you use your insurance.
