Top Tips for Hiring an SUV in Minneapolis
- Minneapolis SUV Rentals provide more comfortable seating and interior space than public transportation. You can stretch out, enjoy the climate control, and have a more relaxed travel experience. In addition, having your SUV allows you to store luggage, sports equipment, or other belongings easily. There's no need to worry about carrying bags or equipment on public transit. Most importantly, you can access remote or less frequented areas that may not be easily reachable by public transportation, such as Voyageurs National Park and Pipestone National Monument.
- The minimum age to rent a car, including an SUV, in Minneapolis is typically 21 years old. If you are under 25, you may be subject to a young driver surcharge, even if the rental agency allows drivers in the 18 to 20 age group. This surcharge is an additional fee to cover the higher insurance risks associated with younger drivers. Besides, you must have a valid driver's license to rent an SUV in Minneapolis. International visitors may also need an International Driving Permit (IDP) if their driver's license is not in English. Remember that most rental agencies require a credit card in the renter's name to secure the rental.
- Before sitting behind the wheel of Minneapolis SUV rentals, ensure you familiarize yourself with Minnesota's traffic laws and regulations. For instance, children traveling with you must be properly secured in an appropriate car seat or booster seat based on age, weight, and height. Be aware of cyclists and pedestrians, especially in Downtown Minneapolis and residential areas. Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians at crosswalks. Remember that Minnesota has strict laws regarding impaired driving; the legal blood alcohol limit is 0.08%. Therefore, do not drink and drive or you will incur punitive fines.
- Driving an SUV rental during rush hours in Minneapolis, like in any major city, can be a challenging experience due to increased traffic congestion and the potential for delays. If possible, plan your travel to avoid rush hours altogether. Traffic jams in this city usually occur between 7:00 am to 9:00 am and 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm on weekdays. Adjust your travel times if possible, so you can avoid these peak periods. Areas notorious for congestion that you should consider navigating around include Interstate 35W, Interstate 94, Interstate 394, Hennepin Avenue, and Washington Avenue.

Pros:
NACons:
We booked through Kayak and accidently booked the car in our home town in Minneapolis. I was unable to get a refund from Kayak so I tried to get a refund from SIXT. Even thought the mistake was discovered minutes after the reservation was made I had to pay for 3 days of the rental just to cancel. Probably wont use Kayak or SIXT again. Should have been an easy correction from Kayak or SIXT instead cost me $145.00 for nothing. Booked my rental car through Hertz2.0 Poor

Cons:
The line at the airport rental desk was 20 people deep. we waited 15 minutes and no one in line moved. perhaps there was some trouble, but we did not see anyone leave the desk to get their rental car. there were 3 agents at the desk. we decided that it would be better to get a lLyft to take us from the airport to our destination, 40 miles away. The cost of the Lyft from and back to the airport was less than the cost of the rental car. There was no way to modify or change the rental, so I lost $145. Next time we will just use Lyft.2.0 Poor

Pros:

I reserved a mid size pickup for almost $200 a day and was given a ‘managers choice’ vehicle. So for $200 a day I drove the smallest car they had- a Chevy Spark. It was a complete ripoff.4.0 Mediocre
May 2021
Cons:
I paid for a large SUV ahead of time and when I arrived to pick up my car, I was told there were none in stock and I would have to pay to “upgrade” to a minivan. This doubled the price of my rental. It was infuriating to pay for a reservation only to be told it wasn’t available and I would have to pay more.2.0 Poor
May 2021
Cons:
Location at terminal closed, no signs to tell you where to go. Ordered a full size SUV and was provided a small suv. When questioned about full-size I was told, because it had 7 seats, it was full sized. Will never be renting from dollar again.6.0 Okay

Nov 2018
Pros:
It was a brand new car and it was just what I asked for. Due to a long distance drive I requested an all wheel or 4 wheel drive SUV and i was able to secure it with no hassle. It was a well equipped car and a super quick and easy check out at the desk. Well done Enterprise.Avis

What you pay for is what you get. I was worried that at the end of my trip they were going to charge extra on miles or come up with something but not at all. Picked up the car with no problems and dropped off took 5 minutes. Will definitely use again!Alamo
