Passenger, luggage and journey details
Plan car hire in Hythe
A few quick questions help point towards a fitting group for your journey, rather than a specific model.
What 'or similar' means
A confirmed booking guarantees the category, for example estate or SUV, while the exact make and model supplied is that vehicle or an equivalent, not a fixed choice.
Pin down passenger numbers
Count yourself as the driver when totalling passengers, so a hatchback, estate or people-carrier group ends up sized correctly for the trip.
Separate luggage from seats
A higher seat count does not automatically mean a bigger boot, so mention specific items such as luggage or equipment when you enquire.
Automatic if it suits you
An automatic gearbox appears across several groups rather than belonging to one body type, so flag this preference along with what you're carrying.

Car Hire questions
If I book a compact car for Hythe, will I get a specific model?
You'll receive a car from that group, described as the vehicle or an equivalent, rather than one guaranteed make or model, so the exact car may vary.
How do I decide between a hatchback and an estate for my trip?
Estate and hatchback groups differ in boot space, so tell us what you're carrying as well as your passenger numbers, and we'll point towards the closer match.
Can I ask for an automatic within a particular group, such as SUV?
Automatic gearboxes appear across several groups rather than one body type, so share this preference together with your passenger and luggage details, and we'll confirm what fits.
