Compact Class - especially popular with Rental Cars

The compact class is one of the most popular vehicles for rental cars. Small families and couples in particular see countless advantages in the compact class. When it comes to hiring a car, for example for a short city trip, many people book car from this category. For example, if you want to hire a VW Golf, select this vehicle class. Especially when you hire a car in Mallorca, compact class is popular as a hired car. In this vehicle category you can easily stow suitcases and still come through most of the Spanish lanes. 

Ideally for narrow roads

A hired car is usually booked for a stay at a holiday destination. Shorter city trips are also offered by some people, preferably by car. Therefore, enormous storage space is not absolutely necessary and the choice is often made for the compact class. There is enough space for one or two suitcases, and shopping can also be accommodated without any problems.

In addition, these vehicles are manoeuvrable enough to cope with urban traffic. The search for a parking space is less strenuous and driving through narrow lanes does not entail to many risks.

The compact class is manoeuvrable and offers enough space for up to four people and a little baggage. The bottom line is that these are all very good arguments when you want to hire a car.

Low prices in the compact class

If you want to hire a car, of course you can also look at the price. After all, it is often the available budget that determines which type of hired car is suitable. In the compact class, there are plenty of models to choose from, so there is something for every taste.

Hires for cars in the compact class are relatively low compared to larger cars. It is therefore worthwhile to take a look at the optional extras available. Car hire usually offers a choice of different versions in the classes, so that the customer can ultimately decide which equipment is best for him/her. For some, a standard version is sufficient and others will treat themselves to a little luxury when hiring a car.

Apart from a reasonable rental price, it is the additional costs, such as petrol or diesel, that are by far not as high in this class as in the case of larger vehicles. Even in terms of insurance, these cars are usually cheaper.

These are all advantages that are particularly well received by families. With the compact class car hire, you now have a flexible means of transport at your disposal, which saves you money and thus offers a little more space for excursions and other activities.
The cheap hires are only beaten by the small / economy cars. However, these are often unsuitable for families.

Which cars are available in the compact car category?

In the compact class, there are particularly popular classics among the vehicle models. Since the demand is usually quite high, many car hire companies offer several cars of this class. To see which cars belong to it, here is a short overview:

  • VW Golf
  • BMW 1 Series
  • Ford Focus
  • Mercedes A-Class
  • Audi A3
  • Opel Astra
  • Mini Cooper

Which compact class car is available directly from the rental company depends on the size of the fleet. This overview is only intended to give a small foretaste of what can be offered.

Of course, these rental cars differ in their equipment. Large car hire companies offer different models with different equipment to address a wide range of customers.

High demand für hired car in the compact category

The demand for a compact class car hire is rising, especially in the high season. The balanced price-performance ratio makes these vehicles so popular. How good that you can compare several car hire companies at a glance via Driveboo.com and thus find the car you are looking for much faster.

By the way, it is also worthwhile to book a hired car to see how you can get along with a certain vehicles. While a test drive in the car dealership can only be carried out to a limited extent, one of the rental cars is available for a considerably longer period of time. This may have a positive effect on a later purchase decision. And for anyone who has ever wanted to drive a Mini Cooper through the streets or drive along the avenue with an Audi A3, a hired car is also worthwhile over the weekend.
