Answers to popular questions

Prices can vary based on the company, the season, and the vehicle, but most locations offer discounts if you reserve a car prior to your arrival in Hangzhou. The cheapest automatic cars cost from 12$ to 27$ per day. Larger cars can be more expensive due to their higher fuel consumption, so you may want to choose a smaller vehicle, which will also be advantageous on narrower roads.
There is always an increase in demand for car rentals in Hangzhou during the summer months, which drives up the prices. During the off-season, particularly the winter, the prices are significantly lower. The duration of your rental also affects the total price. Typically, renting a vehicle for a longer period of time results in a lower daily rate, thus a five-day rental may cost only somewhat more than a three-day rental. If possible, consider spending at least a week exploring Hangzhou.

Third party insurance is often included in the rental price, which covers damage and injuries done by a third party and their vehicle, even if you are liable for it. However, this policy does not protect the driver or the vehicle in the event of an accident.
The deductibles (for losses not covered by the rental agency) that are included in many base contracts are typically quite large. In the event that you cause an accident while renting a car, you will be held financially accountable for the deductible amount specified in your rental agreement.
In case of an accident or theft, you can purchase additional insurance through the rental agency.

The freedom to see sights at your own pace and on your own timetable is a major perk of having a rental car while on vacation. It's nice to be able to schedule your travel whenever you'd like, whether that's at the crack of dawn or after midnight to avoid crowded bus or train times.

Choose a car based on what you want to do on your trip. Small cars like the Ford Focus or Fiat 500 can be used to get around the city and its surroundings.
The Toyota Camry is the most popular car in the Standard category. Its starting price is 25$ per day from EAST COAST, and its rating average is 9 based on more than 1000 customer reviews. VW Tiguan from EUROPCAR is the most reasonably priced rental vehicle in Hangzhou. Just 28$ per day is the cost.
Most of the rental cars in Hangzhou are manual. Automatic cars cost more to rent, and if your license only lets you drive an automatic car, you won't be able to rent a stick shift car.

The rental car companies in Hangzhou can only guarantee a certain type of car, not an exact make or model. Car rental companies have cars from many different brands in the same category. These cars should have the same features that were confirmed at the time of the reservation. Here is an explanation of the various car classes:

Car rental models

You may be able to reserve a specific model in some cases. You will notice a special note next to the vehicle in the search results if such a possibility exists.

For online payments, we accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express.
Please be aware that the local supplier will demand that you leave a security deposit for the car when you take it up. This manifests as a minimal amount (Excess + VAT) being put on the primary driver's credit card as a block. At the rental desk, you must have a credit card with you.
We will accept a debit card if purchase our Platinum Insurance plan for the duration of your rental period.
