Hyundai car rental in Barcelona

Hyundai car rental in Barcelona starts at €19 per day for an Economy hatchback and runs to €99 per day for a nine-seat van — seven Hyundai models in all, from the i10 to the Staria. We deliver the car to you anywhere in the city, and the booking is agreed with a manager.

Which Hyundai car rental in Barcelona fits your trip

Seven Hyundai models, five classes, seats for five, seven or nine — the choice comes down to how many people travel, how much luggage comes along and how far you plan to drive out of Barcelona. Here is how the range splits.

City hatchbacks for two — the i10 and i20

Our two Economy hatchbacks, the i10 at €19 a day and the i20 at €24 a day, are five-seat petrol manuals built for city driving. Both run a 1.0 L engine with front-wheel drive, the i10 at 67 hp and the i20 at 100 hp, and both come with a manual gearbox as standard. They are the cheapest way into our fleet.

Crossovers and SUVs for longer drives

The Kona crossover at €44 a day and the Tucson SUV at €50 a day add hybrid power for day trips. The Kona pairs a 1.0 L 120 hp engine with petrol or hybrid power and front-wheel drive; the Tucson steps up to 1.6 L and 150 hp with hybrid drive and a choice of front-wheel or all-wheel grip. Both seat five and both are manuals.

Seven and nine seats for groups

The Santa Fe at €64 a day with seven seats and the Staria at €99 a day with nine seats are the only automatics in our Hyundai fleet. The Santa Fe runs a 1.6 L hybrid with 215 hp and all-wheel drive; the Staria is a 2.2 L diesel van with 177 hp and front-wheel or all-wheel drive.

What to weigh before you book

• Passengers and luggage: five seats cover the i10, i20, i30, Kona and Tucson; only the Santa Fe takes seven and only the Staria takes nine.
• Gearbox: every model except the Santa Fe and Staria is manual, so if you cannot drive a manual, your choice is those two.
• Fuel: petrol for the i10, i20 and i30, petrol or hybrid for the Kona, hybrid for the Tucson and Santa Fe, diesel for the Staria.
• Drivetrain: all-wheel drive comes on the Santa Fe as standard and on the Tucson and Staria as an option; the rest are front-wheel drive.
• Budget: the daily rate runs from €19 to €99, and the i30 Comfort hatchback sits in the middle at €41.

What a Hyundai car rental in Barcelona costs

Daily rates for our Hyundai car rental in Barcelona run from €19 to €99 across five classes, and every figure below is the rate we quote before you book.

Prices by class and model

How weekly and monthly rates work

A week of Hyundai car rental in Barcelona starts at €114 and a month at €399, calculated as daily ×6 and daily ×21. So the Staria at €99 a day comes to €594 for a week and €2,079 for a month; the i10 at €19 a day comes to €114 and €399. Booking the whole period in one go keeps the rate fixed for its length, and the terms of the agreement are agreed when booking.

What the price includes and what waits until booking

• Obligatorio cover: every car we hand over carries the mandatory Spanish third-party insurance, and it stays valid even if the driver at the wheel is not the one named on the agreement.
• Included in the quoted rate: the declared price must by consumer law contain every compulsory charge you cannot legally drive without, so nothing essential is bolted on later.
• Fuel: the car is handed over full and returned full.
• Delivery: we bring the car to you, and the meeting point and time are agreed with a manager when the booking is confirmed.

Hyundai car rental in Barcelona fleet, model by model

Our seven Hyundai models cover the whole practical range: two Economy hatchbacks, a Comfort hatchback, a crossover, two SUVs and a nine-seat van. Below is what each one actually gives you on Barcelona roads.

Engines, gearboxes and drivetrains

Hyundai car rental in Barcelona with Rent-Trip spans 1.0 L to 2.2 L engines, 67 to 215 hp, and both manual and automatic gearboxes. The i10 and i20 run a 1.0 L petrol unit at 67 hp and 100 hp; the i30 and Kona use a 1.0 L at 120 hp; the Tucson and Santa Fe carry a 1.6 L hybrid at 150 hp and 215 hp; the Staria has a 2.2 L diesel at 177 hp. Front-wheel drive is standard across the range, with AWD available on the Tucson, Santa Fe and Staria. Only the Santa Fe and Staria are automatic.

Fuel types across the range

The i10, i20 and i30 are straight petrol; the Kona is petrol or hybrid; the Tucson and Santa Fe are hybrid; the Staria is diesel.

What each model is for

• Hyundai i10 — Economy, €19/day: 5 seats, 1.0 L, 67 hp, manual, front-wheel drive; the cheapest way into the fleet.
• Hyundai i20 — Economy, €24/day: 5 seats, 1.0 L, 100 hp, manual.
• Hyundai i30 — Comfort, €41/day: 5 seats, 1.0 L, 120 hp, manual.
• Hyundai Kona — Crossover, €44/day: 5 seats, 1.0 L, 120 hp, petrol or hybrid, manual.
• Hyundai Tucson — SUV, €50/day: 5 seats, 1.6 L, 150 hp, hybrid, manual, front-wheel or AWD; the pick for day trips beyond the city.
• Hyundai Santa Fe — SUV, €64/day: 7 seats, 1.6 L, 215 hp, hybrid, automatic, AWD.
• Hyundai Staria — Passenger vans, €99/day: 9 seats, 2.2 L, 177 hp, diesel, automatic, front-wheel or AWD.

Seat counts across the range are 5, 7 and 9, so a group of six or more has exactly two options: the Santa Fe or the Staria.

Picking up and returning your Hyundai car rental in Barcelona

Where we can hand over the car

We deliver your Hyundai car rental in Barcelona to the place you name when booking — the terminal at Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport, the arrivals hall at Girona–Costa Brava Airport, Barcelona Sants railway station, the cruise terminals at Moll Adossat, Fira de Barcelona Gran Via, or an address in Ciutat Vella, L'Eixample, Gràcia, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi or Poblenou and the 22@ district.

What is checked before you drive away

• Body and glass: walk the car with the person handing it over and have every scratch, dent and chip written into the agreement or the inspection sheet before you leave.
• Controls: check the gearbox, the lights and the tyre pressures on the spot — the Santa Fe and Staria are automatics, the rest of the range is manual.
• Damage record: keep your copy of the signed inspection sheet — without it, damage found later is hard to argue about.

Driving a Hyundai car rental in Barcelona in the ZBE Rondes BCN

The Zona de Bajas Emisiones Rondes de Barcelona (ZBE Rondes BCN) covers more than 95 km² — the whole municipality of Barcelona except the Zona Franca industrial area and the Vallvidrera – el Tibidabo i les Planes neighbourhood, plus L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Sant Adrià de Besòs and parts of Esplugues de Llobregat and Cornellà de Llobregat. It runs on working days, Monday to Friday.

Speed limits and cameras inside the zone

The zone itself does not change the speed limits — the city does. On a street with a single platform shared by traffic and pavement the limit is 20 km/h; on a street with one lane in each direction it is 30 km/h, which the municipality may raise to 50 km/h by sign; on a street with two or more lanes each way it is 50 km/h, and dedicated bus and transport lanes do not count towards that total. The Rondes B-10 and B-20 are capped at 80 km/h as an urban motorway limit unless a sign says otherwise.

• 100–600 EUR and 2–6 points: the DGT speeding scale, rising with the limit and the margin over it.
• Above 60 km/h over the limit in the city: no longer an administrative fine but a criminal offence.
• 200 EUR and 3–6 points: using a phone at the wheel — 6 points if you were holding it.
• 200 EUR and 4 points: no seat belt, or a child under 135 cm without an SRI child seat.
• 50% off: the reduction for paying a fine within 20 calendar days.

Parking inside the zone is metered: Àrea Blava A costs €2.50 an hour and Àrea Blava B €2.25, and the receipt from the parquímetre has to carry the same number as the car.

Fuel and the cost of a day in the zone

Refuel with Gasolina 95 E5, which averaged €1.953 across 74 stations surveyed in the municipality of Barcelona, with a median of €1.987 and a spread from €1.758 to €2.059.

Hyundai car rental in Barcelona for trips out of town

The city sits within an hour or two of coast, mountains and wine country, so a car you keep for several days earns its rate. The Hyundai you pick for the city is rarely the one you want for the C-16 climb or a full week along the Costa Brava.

Which Hyundai for which run

• Hyundai i10 or i20: the two Economy hatchbacks at €19 and €24 a day handle Sitges and the Penedès wine country.
• Hyundai Kona: the €44 crossover with petrol/hybrid power sits between city manners and longer legs.
• Hyundai Tucson: the €50 SUV with a 1.6 L 150 hp hybrid engine adds front-wheel or AWD grip for Montserrat and the roads toward the Pyrenees.
• Hyundai Santa Fe: 7 seats, 215 hp, automatic and AWD at €64 a day.
• Hyundai Staria: the 9-seat diesel van at €99 a day, automatic, with front-wheel or AWD.

Fuel and the drive home

Fuel on the municipal average runs €1.953 for Gasolina 95 E5, with a median of €1.987, a low of €1.758 and a high of €2.059 across the 74 stations measured. Fill up before you turn back rather than hunting for a station at the end of a long day.

Coming back into the ZBE

• ZBE Rondes BCN: the low-emission zone covers more than 95 km² and takes in the metropolitan area beyond the city line, so a day trip that ends inside the ring has to be planned around the badge rather than the map.
• Parking at the end: Àrea Blava A is €2.5 an hour and Àrea Blava B is €2.25.

Documents, insurance and the rental agreement

Spanish law sets a floor under every Hyundai car rental in Barcelona: third-party cover is compulsory, and the paperwork around it is agreed when booking. Below is what the law fixes, what the agreement adds, and what you settle with our manager before the keys change hands.

What the law fixes, whatever you drive

• Seguro Obligatorio de Responsabilidad Civil: compulsory third-party cover on every car legally on the road, included by default and valid even if an unlisted driver is at the wheel.
• Liability limits: 70,000,000 EUR per incident for personal injury, however many people are hurt, and 15,000,000 EUR for property damage.
• Legal basis: Real Decreto Legislativo 8/2004, article 4.2, as amended by Ley 5/2025, with the sums in force since 26.07.2025.

• Depósito / preautorización: a hold on a credit card against possible damage and extras, with the amount told to you before signing.

Paperwork, and what happens when something goes wrong

Under Spanish consumer rules, the advertised price must include every mandatory charge you cannot legally drive without — compulsory third-party cover among them. At hand-over all scratches and dents must be written into the contract or the inspection sheet before you drive off, and both sides sign it, with a copy staying with you; otherwise the damage is attributed to you. If the model you booked is not available, you may ask for another car at no extra cost, even a class above, and if you are given a lower class the price must be reduced. If the vehicle does not match the agreed terms — automatic gearbox, four doors — you may cancel the booking and have the prepayment returned. What we do say is that our Hyundai car rental in Barcelona is delivered to you, and everything else on this page is settled with a manager before the car arrives.
