Passenger vehicles available in Adelaide

Small to medium rentals

Small and medium - ECMR - Toyota Yaris

A compact car could be just the ticket if you’re running errands around Adelaide, so look for something zippy like the Toyota Yaris or Toyota Corolla that’s easy to manoeuver through the busy CBD. Alternatively, if you want something a little bigger but don’t want to sacrifice on fuel efficiency, a mid-size vehicle may be the answer.

Things to see and do with a car rental in Adelaide

Once you’ve got a set of wheels, Adelaide and South Australia are yours to explore. Within the city itself, some of the top attractions include the historic Adelaide Central Markets, the Adelaide Botanic Gardens, and Rundle Mall. It’s also only a 20-minute drive out to the gorgeous Waterfall Gully. Plus, Glenelg is great for a paddle at the beach and a coffee at one of the seaside cafes.

If you’re looking to head out of town, there’s plenty to do and see in all directions. Visit the wineries of the Barossa Valley, discover the beauty of the Fleurieu Peninsula, or put your sense of adventure to the test with a visit to Port Lincoln for a swim with the sharks.
