Question 3

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can rent a car as a foreigner in Quito. However, you will need a valid international driving permit (IDP) along with your home country driver’s license.

Question 4

Can I rent a car from Sixt in Quito?

Accepted Answer

Yes – you can pick up Sixt rent cars from Quito.

Question 5

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Question 6

What are the advantages of renting a car from Quito?

Accepted Answer

Renting a car from Quito offers several notable benefits. You can choose from a wide range of vehicles, including Vans, Sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, compact cars, and specialty options like exotics. The station often provides a variety of larger vehicles as well, such as people carriers, 7-seaters, 8-seaters, 9-seaters, and 10-seaters. Additionally, you can conveniently reserve your car online and pick it up directly from the station, streamlining the car hire process. The station’s location typically offers efficient service, avoiding the complexities often associated with airport rentals.

Question 7

What is the cheapest car to rent in Quito?

Accepted Answer

The most affordable car to hire in Quito is a Economy (Kia Picanto), with the latest price we found at A$29 per day.

Question 8

Can I hire a car from AVIS in Quito?

Accepted Answer

Yes – you can pick up AVIS rent cars from Quito.

Question 9

Can another person drive my rental vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Yes, another person can drive your hire vehicle, but they must be authorised by the hire company. Typically, you need to add them as an additional driver when booking or picking up the car. There may be an extra fee for adding additional drivers, and they must meet the same age and driving licence requirements as the primary driver. Check with the car hire company for specific terms and conditions.

Question 10

Can I rent a car in Quito for a month?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can rent a car for a month in Quito. Many car hire companies offer long-term car hire options. It’s often more cost-effective to book a monthly car hire rather than several weekly rentals. For the best rates and availability, start a search on VoyageCopilot.com to compare offers and find the most suitable long-term car hire deals.

Question 11

Can I use a debit card to rent a car in Quito?

Accepted Answer

Using a debit card to rent a car in Quito is sometimes possible, but policies vary by rental company. Many suppliers require a credit card, such as Visa, MasterCard, or American Express, for the deposit and reservation. If you only have a debit card, check with the rental provider beforehand or use our website, VoyageCopilot.com, to find car hire options that accept debit cards.

Question 12

What is a one-way fee?

Accepted Answer

A one-way fee is applied when you return your hire car to a different location than where you originally picked it up. This fee helps cover the cost of relocating the vehicle back to its starting point. The amount of the one-way fee varies depending on the locations involved and the hire company's policies. Be sure to check the fee details when booking your hire to understand any additional charges that may apply.
