What is the best type of car to rent in Jacksonville?
The best Jacksonville airport car rental depends on what you’d like to do here. To enjoy the city’s beaches and golf courses, an SUV might be your best option. If you have a large group touring cultural sights, try renting a car with a lot of seats, like a passenger van.
SUV Rental
If you plan on spending time outside, whether you’re hitting the links at TPC Sawgrass or hitting the beach at Amelia Island, an SUV rental might be the best choice for you. An SUV gives you the passenger space you need, as well as ample cargo space.
Passenger Van Rental
With a passenger van rental from Avis, you can keep a large group together. A passenger van like Ford Transit will give you up to 15 seats to move your group as a single unit. They’ll do well at Jacksonville Beach, where there’s something for everyone.
Minivan Rental
Minivans like the Kia Sedona are well-suited for families with children, as the sliding doors help you access car seats and booster seats. If your kids like big cats, Catty Shack Ranch Wildlife Sanctuary may be a great destination for that minivan—especially for the 7 pm feeding time!
Long-Term Car Rental
Staying in Jacksonville for a month or longer? Try a monthly car rental. With one of our monthly or long-term car rentals, the longer you rent, the more you save on your rate. You can rent a car for up to 11 months at a time with a long-term Jacksonville airport car rental.
Convertible Car Rental
Here’s what you do: grab a luxury car rental like the Chevy Camaro SS convertible, take I-295 to the SR-13 exit in Jacksonville, put the top down, and enjoy some beautiful scenery along the St. Johns River with the wind in your hair. You’ll thank us later.
