Average Car Rental Prices in Bucharest

In the vibrant city of Bucharest, the average car rental prices vary based on several factors including the type of vehicle, rental duration, and time of the year. Generally, tourists and business travelers can expect to find economy cars starting from as low as €15 per day, with prices going up during peak tourist seasons.

For those desiring more comfort or traveling with family, a mid-range sedan might cost around €30 to €50 per day. Meanwhile, the luxury car rentals can go upwards of €100 per day, appealing to those seeking a premium experience.

It is particularly interesting to note that the longer the rental period, the more cost-effective it becomes. Weekly rates substantially reduce the daily expenditure, catering to the needs of longer stays. Additionally, travelers can often negotiate better rates directly with local rental companies, or find discounts through various online booking platforms.

Don't forget that additional costs such as insurance, GPS, or child seat rentals could also affect the total price. Always look out for these extra services when renting a car in Bucharest to avoid surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions | FAQ's

1. What documents do I need to rent a car in Bucharest?

In order to rent a car in Bucharest, you will typically need a valid driver’s license that has been held for at least one year, a valid ID or passport, and a credit card in the driver’s name. International travelers should have an International Driving Permit (IDP) if their license is not in a Roman alphabet.

2. Can I rent a car in Bucharest if I am under 25?

Yes, it is possible for drivers under 25 to rent a car in Bucharest; however, they may be subject to a young driver surcharge and could be limited to certain types of vehicles. Additionally, the minimum rental age can vary depending on the car rental company.

3. Are there any specific traffic rules in Bucharest that I should be aware of?

When driving in Bucharest, be aware that traffic flows on the right-hand side of the road. Seat belts must be worn at all times, and the use of a mobile phone without a hands-free system is prohibited. Pay close attention to the speed limits, which vary depending on the type of road, and be mindful of the fact that trams have the right of way.

4. Is it possible to rent a car at the Bucharest airport?

Yes, many car rental companies have desks at Henri Coandă International Airport (Bucharest's main airport), offering convenient pick-up and drop-off. Be sure to confirm operating hours and location within the airport to facilitate a smooth rental process.

5. Do I need to purchase additional insurance when renting a car in Bucharest?

Car rental companies often offer additional insurance options such as Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection (TP). It is not mandatory to purchase these if your personal car insurance or credit card provides adequate coverage. However, make sure to check the terms of your insurance to ensure it's valid abroad and covers rental cars.

6. What should I check for when picking up a rental car in Bucharest?

Before leaving the rental lot, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it is noted on the rental agreement to avoid any disputes. Also, check the fuel policy and make sure any essential features, such as the spare tire and car jack, are present and in good condition.

7. Can I travel outside of Romania with a rental car?

This depends on the car rental company’s policy. Some companies allow cross-border travel with additional fees and documentation, while others may restrict international travel altogether. It is important to check the terms and conditions before attempting to cross the Romanian border with a rental car.

8. Are there any toll roads or fees I should expect to encounter while driving in Romania?

In Romania, you are required to pay a road toll called "Rovinieta." It is a vignette that can be purchased at border points, post offices, and gas stations. Failure to display a valid Rovinieta can result in fines, so make sure you have this organized before driving on Romanian roads.

9. What happens if I return the car late or early?

Returning a rental car late could result in additional charges, typically up to an extra day’s rental. Returning the car early may not always result in a refund for the unused days, depending on the rental company’s policy. It’s best to discuss potential scenarios with the rental company before finalizing the booking.

10. How can I find the best car rental deals in Bucharest?

To find competitive car rental deals in Bucharest, consider booking in advance, comparing prices from different rental companies online, and checking if there are any discounts or promotional offers available. Additionally, renting for a longer period can often reduce the daily rate.
