how much is a car rental from enterprise

[OElisa]

The cost of a car rental from Enterprise varies significantly, but you can generally expect to pay between $50 and $150 per day for a standard sedan like a Toyota Camry or Nissan Altima. The final price is not a single number but is determined by a combination of key factors: your location, the rental duration, the vehicle class you choose, and the time of year. For a typical weekend rental, the total cost often falls in the $200 to $400 range.

The most significant factor is often location. Renting at an airport location typically includes additional fees and taxes, making it 10-30% more expensive than renting from a neighborhood branch in the same city. The rental duration also plays a crucial role; weekly rentals usually offer a lower average daily rate compared to a daily rental. For example, renting for seven days might cost the equivalent of five or six individual days.

Here is a breakdown of estimated daily rates for different vehicle classes to give you a clearer picture:

Vehicle Class	Example Model	Estimated Daily Rate (Neighborhood Branch)	Estimated Daily Rate (Airport Branch)
Economy	Nissan Versa	$45 - $65	$55 - $80
Compact	Hyundai Elantra	$50 - $75	$60 - $90
Intermediate	Toyota Corolla	$55 - $80	$65 - $95
Standard	Toyota Camry	$60 - $90	$70 - $110
Full-Size	Chevrolet Impala	$70 - $100	$80 - $120
SUV (Standard)	Ford Escape	$80 - $120	$90 - $140
Minivan	Chrysler Pacifica	$100 - $150	$120 - $180

Beyond the base rate, your final bill will include mandatory charges like taxes, fees (such as a vehicle licensing cost), and any optional products you select. The biggest optional cost is typically the Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), which can add $25 to $40 per day but relieves you of financial responsibility if the car is damaged. You can avoid this if your personal auto insurance or credit card provides adequate coverage. Always book directly on the Enterprise website and review your final total before confirming to avoid surprises.

It totally depends. I just rented a compact car from a city branch for a week, and it was about $300 total. If you go to the airport, expect to pay more. The best thing to do is skip the insurance if your own car insurance covers rentals. I always check for online coupon codes a few minutes before I book; you’d be surprised how often you can find a 10% or 15% discount that way.

As a frequent traveler, my advice is to focus on the total cost, not the daily rate. Enterprise is known for excellent customer service, but their pricing is competitive. For a business trip, an airport rental of a midsize sedan for three days will typically run between $250 and $350, all-in. The key is to be precise with your pick-up and drop-off times, as even a few hours' difference can trigger an extra day's charge. I always enroll in their loyalty program for faster check-in.
