Austin, USA: Hatchback Rental
The most popular models representing the mini, compact, and economy car segments in Austin are: Chevrolet Matiz, Kia Picanto, Hyundai Accent, Nissan Micra, Chevrolet Aveo, Toyota Auris and others.

When hiring a budget hatchback, it is definitely worth saving on insurance deposit (franchise). Deposits on small cars in USA vary from 100 to 1.000 euro/dollars. Check the rental conditions of each car in your selection to find a vehicle with a minimum deposit.

If your routes in USA are foreseen to pass through hilly areas or mountains, it is not recommended to consider very small cars for rental. Their engines are usually insufficient for a confident driving on the roads with long or steep climbs.

At the rental office in Austin, consider to take a 'Breakdown Assistance' package or ask an officer for a contact data to use in case of a vehicle breakdown. Cheap cars are sometimes unpredictable in operation.

Upon receipt of the rental invoice, please check that all the information, as well as the final payment amount do match the data in your voucher.

OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe and great trip to Austin!

Driving Advices for USA – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
The local road signs are very easy to understand. Almost all of them have an accompanying description that fully reflects the meaning of the sign. Thus, a speed limit sign can have an inscription “SPEED LIMIT 50”, and a sign with the requirement to stop will surely contain the “STOP” inscription.
Curbs along local roads are often painted in different colors. It is strictly prohibited to stop and parking cars on a road with a red curb. Roads with yellow curbs signify that it is possible to pick up and put off passengers, but this should be done very quickly.
It is allowed to stop and park a car for a short time next to the green curb, but in no case should one park a car near the blue curb - these are special parking spaces for the disabled. It is also possible to pick up and put off passengers near the white curb.

Rental Advices
Before starting the travel, print out a map of Austin with your rental location and prepare all the required documents that are specified in your voucher. Put them together in one package for a quick pick-up.
Once you have reached the rental desk, do not forget to ask the staff how tolerant the office is to late returns. As a rule, a delay of up to one hour is not penalized in USA. However, in different rental offices there may be a fully opposite approach to this issue.
