Car Hire in Singapore

To secure the best rates, book your car hire at least 3 weeks in advance. Generally, December offers the lowest prices for car hires in Singapore.

Driving during rush hour can lead to delays; try to avoid these times.

When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most car hire companies offer a 30-60 minute grace period. Sharing your train number can be helpful, but if you're running late, be sure to contact the car hire provider to let them know.

If you're looking for more comfort or features, inquire about upgrade options at the rental desk. Sometimes, upgrades are offered at a discounted rate at pickup.

Using a GPS or navigation app can help you find the best routes and avoid traffic jams.

For short trips, car-sharing services may be more economical and flexible.

Before finalising your car hire in Singapore, make sure to confirm the drop-off location with your provider. This will help you save time and prevent any misunderstandings at the end of your car hire period.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.
