Why choose GoRentCar for your car rental in France?
The French car rental market is full of headline prices that look great until you reach the counter and discover the hidden fees. At GoRentCar, we took a different approach: complete transparency. The price you see is the price you pay. No surprise deposit, no mandatory credit card, no inflated insurance at pickup.
No deposit blocked on your card.
Most car hire companies in France block between €800 and €2,500 as a security deposit when you collect the vehicle. With our No-Deposit offers, nothing is frozen on your account you drive away with peace of mind.
Debit cards accepted.
You don't need a credit card to book or pick up your car. Visa Debit and Mastercard Debit are accepted on most of our offers, which makes renting accessible to young drivers and international travellers alike.
Everything included in the price.
Full insurance, partial excess waiver, unlimited mileage, and 24/7 roadside assistance are all built into the displayed rate. There's no nasty bill waiting for you at drop-off.
Free cancellation up to 48 hours.
Plans change. Modify or cancel your booking with no fees, up to two days before pickup. Full refund guaranteed.
Cheap car hire across the whole of France
Whether you fly into Paris Charles-de-Gaulle, arrive by train at Gare de Lyon, or already live in the regions, GoRentCar covers the entire country. Our partner network extends from major cities to mid-size towns, plus every major airport.
In Paris, we offer pickup points in every arrondissement, plus CDG, Orly and Beauvais airports, and all main train stations (Nord, Lyon, Montparnasse, Est, Saint-Lazare). On the French Riviera, you can rent in Nice, Cannes, Antibes, Monaco and Nice Airport. Heading southwest? Book in Bordeaux, Toulouse or Biarritz. To explore Alsace, find us in Strasbourg and Colmar. And for the mountains, we have agencies in Lyon, Grenoble, Annecy and Chambéry.
This network density also means one-way rental is easy: pick up in Paris, drop off in Marseille, with no hidden fees. Perfect for a French road trip.
Every type of car, for every kind of trip
Our fleet is made up of recent vehicles (under 12 months old on average) from the leading European brands: Renault, Peugeot, Citroën, Volkswagen, Fiat, Tesla, BMW and Mercedes. You'll find the right car for your journey.
For city driving, choose a compact like the Renault Clio or Peugeot 208 from €19/day. For a family weekend, go for a spacious SUV (Peugeot 3008, Citroën C5 Aircross) from €35/day. Eco-conscious? Our electric car range (Tesla Model 3, Renault Megane E-Tech) starts at €29/day and includes access to a partner charging network.
Travelling with more than five people? Book a 7-seater minivan or 9-seater minibus from €49/day. For a romantic Riviera escape, a convertible is the way to go. And for special occasions, our luxury fleet includes the Mercedes E-Class, BMW 5 Series, Porsche Cayenne and Range Rover.
All our cars are available in automatic or manual transmission. Unlimited mileage is included by default on most offers.
