Car Rentals in Indianapolis, Indiana

Using your credit card to book a cheap car rental in Indianapolis can provide some perks. Most credit card companies offer rental car insurance, which you’ll want, especially if you are looking to save some cash. Depending on the credit card, you may also be able to have access to rental car discounts and upgrades to redeem rewards. To access the benefits and security of car insurance, you are required to decline the coverage offered by any Indiana car rental facility and instead use your card to pay for your luxury car rental or electric car rental in full. While there are car rental locations in Indianapolis that take cash, even money orders, you still need to run a car search on momondo and find where the dealership has indicated "security deposit" on their filter. Most car rental sites found through momondo have a debit or credit card option, but you can find cash-only rentals under the "no credit card required" drop-down menu. The filter will adjust accordingly to present the available cash car rentals, including the prices and what you need to have handy to close the deal.

You have to be at least 25 years old to rent a car in Indianapolis. Anyone younger than this age may be subject to additional local fees, plus he or she may not be allowed to book vehicles such as SUVs, minivans, or convertibles, including those in the premium, specialty, and luxury categories. Under Indiana law, driving without a license is a misdemeanor offense that can get you arrested and fined. Everyone occupying the vehicle, including children, must wear their seat belts or be subject to a Class D infraction. According to Indiana traffic rules, the maximum speed limit in residential areas is 30mph (unless posted otherwise), and that of a school zone is between 20 – 25mph. If you are caught driving over the posted speed limit, you can face hefty fines or result in a traffic citation, license suspension, or arrest. Depending on the circumstances, a speeding infraction can potentially lead to a reckless driving charge. Texting while driving is banned throughout the state, and Indiana is strict about driving under the influence, so be sure to get a ride if you’re planning to have a few drinks. Check with the Indianapolis Department of Motor Vehicles for any recent law changes.

Vacation driving in Indiana requires just your driver’s license from your home country. However, for your expensive or cheap car rental in Indianapolis, you will also want to bring an International Driving Permit to present with your license. And keep your passport handy because for some rental cars in Indianapolis, a third form of ID is required from visitors from outside the U.S. For U.S. drivers, keep in mind that for car rentals in Indianapolis, most agencies do not accept learner's permits or restricted, or expired licenses, and they have different minimum ages to rent. We recommend calling ahead for details. A luxury car rental in Indianapolis may also require an international renter who wants a long-term lease to buy full insurance coverage to operate the vehicle safely.
