What types of cars can I rent in Shinmachi?
Cost-effective, easy to handle and delivering great mileage, it's little wonder compact cars are the most sought-after type of rental in Shinmachi. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city escapes or short road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Shinmachi?
The minimum age is 18. But there are some age-related requirements you should keep in mind before booking your wheels in Shinmachi. If you're a young driver, most rental providers will charge an extra daily fee and limit the types of cars you're able to rent. This size of the surcharge, and which ages it applies to, differs between providers. It's always a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Shinmachi?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of other coverage. Requirements can differ between rental suppliers, so be sure to read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Shinmachi?
In Shinmachi, as with all of Japan, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. Take things slow to build up confidence driving on the left if it's your first time.

Where can I find a Shinmachi car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Shinmachi often depends on the rental supplier you choose.
