An easy-going choice for Alicante and the coast

If you are looking for car hire in Alicante and want something simple to drive and park, a standard hatchback is a sensible place to start. It is compact enough for the busy streets around the port and the old town, yet comfortable enough for a longer run along the Costa Blanca. This page lists seven cars in the class, so you can choose by style and personal taste as well as by size.

Cars you can choose from

The current selection includes the Toyota Auris Hybrid, the Lexus CT 200h, the Citroen DS4, the Renault GT Line and the Volkswagen EOS. Some models appear in more than one version, such as the Lexus CT 200h and the Citroen DS4, so look at the individual listing to see exactly which one you are booking. If a hybrid appeals to you, the Toyota Auris Hybrid and the Lexus CT 200h Hybrid are the ones to look at.

A hatchback car rental in Alicante tends to suit:

  • couples and solo travellers who want a car that is easy to manoeuvre;
  • small families or groups of friends travelling with a moderate amount of luggage;
  • business visitors who need to move between meetings in the city and nearby towns;
  • anyone planning a mix of town driving and day trips.

Trips worth taking from Alicante

Having your own car gives you freedom that timetables do not. From the city you can drive south to Santa Pola for the beach and salt flats, or head inland to Elche and its palm grove, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Heading north along the coast, Villajoyosa, Altea and Calpe with its Peñón de Ifach are all reachable for a day out. Guadalest, a village in the hills behind Benidorm, is a good option when you want a change from the seaside.

In Alicante itself, the Santa Bárbara Castle, the Explanada de España promenade and Postiguet beach are all close to each other, so many visitors prefer to use the car for the longer excursions and walk around the centre.

Practical tips before you book

Before you confirm a standard hatchback rental, check that your driving licence is valid for the whole rental period, and think about how much luggage you really need to carry. It is also worth asking about the transmission type, fuel arrangements, insurance and pick-up details for the specific car, as these can differ from one vehicle to another. Parking in the centre can take a little patience, so a smaller car is a real advantage there.

Renting with us means you can compare the available hatchbacks in one place and pick the one that fits your plans. When you are ready to rent a hatchback in Alicante, take a look at the models above and choose the one that suits your trip best.
