  • The coverage Europcar or another supplier includes with your Ahmedabad car hire can differ, so be sure to go over the fine print. While some include a collision damage waiver (CDW), others will charge a fee for it.

  • Choosing a one-way car hire is often a great hack for finding a deal. Simply check 'Return car to a different location' when browsing for a car for rent in Ahmedabad. Providers often need to move vehicles between branches, which means you can snag some great one-way prices.

If you're outside the typical age bracket, just uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to browse your options.

  • Travelling with kids? Car seat requirements vary according to the location, and the best setup may depend on their weight, height and age. Check if you need to add one to your Ahmedabad car hire booking.
