Intercity car rental
A week of day trips from Valencia — Sagunto, Xàtiva, the Albufera, Dénia and Jávea — works best when the car is yours for the whole stay, not hired by the day. Intercity car rental in Valencia from Rent-Trip gives you 43 cars, crossovers from €33 a day, weekly from €198 and monthly from €693, with the car delivered to any address in Valencia and to Valencia Airport (VLC).
What intercity car rental in Valencia means with Rent-Trip
Intercity car rental in Valencia is the version of our service where the car does not stay inside the city. We hand it over where you are, you drive out, and you bring it back when the route is done. Delivery point, date and time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed.
What counts as an intercity trip with a rental car
We deliver to any address in the city or to Valencia Airport (VLC), and the delivery address, the date and the time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed. The class you book matters more than the distance: a Crossover covers a day trip, a Minivan covers a group with luggage for a week.
Delivery outside the city is handled the same way — case by case, confirmed in the conversation, not printed as a fixed offer on a page. Fuel follows one rule on every booking: the car is supplied with a full tank and must be returned with a full tank, so plan the last refill before the return rather than after it.
Taking a rental car out of Valencia and returning it in another city
What changes is not the car — it is the booking, and that is what we agree with you before anything is fixed.
Day trips and weekend routes from the city
A Crossover from €33 a day covers the classic day routes — Albufera, El Saler, Sagunto, Xàtiva, Cullera and Gandia. We hand the car over at any address in Valencia or at Valencia Airport (VLC), and from there the AP-7 and the A-3 do the rest: Dénia and Jávea sit at the far end of a comfortable single day.
| Class | Cars | From, per day | Seats | Typical route |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Crossover | 14 | €33 | 5 | Albufera, El Saler, Sagunto, Xàtiva |
| Comfort | 11 | €40 | 4–5 | Cullera and Gandia, Requena and Utiel |
| SUV | 10 | €44 | 5–7 | Chulilla, Peñíscola, Dénia and Jávea |
| Minivans | 8 | €52 | 5–7 | Benidorm, a week with luggage |
Longer routes and month-long rentals
Monthly intercity car rental in Valencia starts from €693, which is the daily rate multiplied by 21; a week starts from €198, the daily rate multiplied by six. Those multipliers are fixed, so the honest way to compare a long booking is to pick the class first and the length second — a week in a Crossover is €198 and in a Minivan €312. On a booking that runs for weeks the fuel policy matters as much as the rate: the car goes out with a full tank and comes back with a full tank, so plan the last refill before the return rather than after it.
Classes and prices for intercity car rental in Valencia

What the day rate covers and what moves it
Intercity hire starts at €33 a day for a Crossover and reaches €75 at the top of the range. The cheapest car on the page is the Kia Stonic — 1.0 L, 100 hp, petrol, manual, five seats — and the most expensive is the Volkswagen Caddy at €75 a day, a five-seat diesel minivan with a manual gearbox. Between them sit the Jeep Avenger and Jeep Renegade at €34, the Nissan Juke, Seat Arona and Toyota Yaris Cross at €35, and the Ford Puma, Hyundai Kona and Volkswagen T-Cross at €36. Automatic gearboxes and hybrids are not confined to the expensive end: the Toyota Yaris Cross is a hybrid automatic at €35, while the Volkswagen T-Roc with its 1.5 L 150 hp engine is a manual at €40.
Weekly and monthly rates
- Weekly: from €198 — the daily rate multiplied by six, so a €33 Crossover comes to €198 for the week.
- Monthly: from €693 — the daily rate multiplied by 21, which is the figure a month-long booking starts from.
- Longer bookings: the multiplier stays fixed at six and 21 whatever class you choose, so the class you book sets the total.
- Fuel: the car goes out with a full tank and comes back full (lleno-lleno); anything missing is charged with a refuelling fee as set out in the rental agreement.
Which class fits which trip
- Crossover — 14 cars from €33: a couple or a small family on a day route or a weekend run; five seats, petrol or hybrid, manual or automatic.
Pick the smallest class that carries your people and bags, then check the gearbox — on a long motorway run an automatic is worth more than an extra 20 hp.
Intercity car rental in Valencia for choosing your car
Intercity car hire works best when the class matches the route, not the budget alone.
Crossover: the default for a day out
We keep 14 Crossovers from €33 a day, and that is the natural class for a single-day intercity booking. The Kia Stonic, Jeep Avenger, Nissan Juke and Seat Arona all run 1.0–1.2 L petrol engines with 100–114 hp, five seats and front-wheel drive, and the Toyota Yaris Cross and Jeep Renegade add a hybrid automatic at €35 and €34.
Comfort and SUV: longer days, more luggage
Comfort starts at €40 with 11 cars — the Kia Ceed, Ford Focus, Hyundai i30 and Opel Astra hatchbacks, plus the Toyota Corolla and Volkswagen Golf at €45 and the Ford Focus Estate at €46. The SUV class runs from €44 across 10 cars: Kia Sportage, Nissan Qashqai and Seat Ateca at €44, Hyundai Tucson at €46, Volkswagen Tiguan at €50 and the BMW X3 and Range Rover Evoque at €58.
Minivans and the seven-seat question
Eight Minivans from €52 cover the group bookings — the Dacia Jogger and Peugeot Rifter with seven seats at €52 and €55, the Renault Grand Scenic at €56 and the Peugeot 5008 at €64, alongside the five-seat Opel Combo at €54. Seats across the page run 4, 5 and 7, so a party of six should book the seven-seat variant rather than squeeze into a five-seat SUV with luggage. Check the seat count on the model card before you fix the booking — the price difference between a five-seat Combo and a seven-seat Rifter is €1 a day, and the wrong choice costs a second car.
How delivery works for intercity car rental in Valencia
Every intercity booking with Rent-Trip starts the same way: the car is brought to you rather than collected from a lot. The delivery address, the date and the time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed, so the hand-over fits your flight, your train or your hotel check-in.
Where we can bring the car
- Any address in the city: home, hotel, apartment or office — the address is agreed with a manager when you book.
- Valencia Airport (VLC): the car can be waiting for you on arrival, so the trip starts at the terminal rather than in the city.
- Joaquín Sorolla station: useful if you arrive on the high-speed train and want to drive straight out of the city.
- Port of Valencia: for cruise passengers who want a car for the days ashore.
- Outside the city: delivery beyond the city is arranged case by case and is not promised on the site.
What is agreed before the booking is fixed
- Delivery address: the exact point where the car changes hands, confirmed with a manager.
- Date and time: the slot for the hand-over, matched to your arrival.
- Class and model: the class you book from the 43 cars on this page, from €33 a day.
- Fuel: the car is supplied with a full tank and must be returned with a full tank — full-to-full, or lleno-lleno as it is printed in Spain.
- Deposit and insurance excess: set out in the rental agreement, not on this page.
The car arrives clean and with a full tank.
Intercity car rental in Valencia driving routes and tolls
We hand the car over with a full tank, so the first decision is which direction you leave in.
Motorways and the toll question
The AP-7 (Autopista del Mediterráneo) on the stretch Salou (Tarragona) — Alicante has been toll-free since 01.01.2020, when the Aumar concession ended and 373.8 km were released, so Dénia, Calp, Benidorm and Peñíscola are reached from Valencia without a péage. The V-21, the access road into the city, and the V-30, the urban fast road, both carry fixed speed cameras, and the general limits are 120 km/h on autopista and autovía, 90 km/h on a conventional carretera and 30 km/h on a city street with one lane in each direction. Budget the fuel, not the tolls: Gasolina 95 E5 averaged €1.978 a litre across the 62 stations inside the municipality in the MITECO sample.
The ZBE València low-emission zone
The ZBE València (Zona de Bajas Emisiones) covers 27.8 km² inside the boundaries of the Ronda Nord, the avenidas de Tarongers and Serradora and the Bulevard Sud, runs around the clock, 365 days, and is being phased in through to 2028. In the first stage, 01.12.2025–31.12.2026, only cars without a DGT sticker (category A) registered outside the province of Valencia are restricted; from 01.01.2027–31.12.2027 that extends to category A cars registered outside the city; from 01.01.2028 it covers every category A car, residents included. Category A means petrol registered before 2001 and diesel before 2006.
What to check before you set off
- Exemptions by application: PMR permits, families with children under 3, pregnant drivers and the 48 transit passes a year are granted on request, not automatically.
- Parking in the centre: zona azul in Ciutat Vella, L'Eixample and Extramurs runs 2 hours maximum at €1.00 for 60 minutes and 1.70 EUR for 120, Monday to Saturday 09:00–14:00 and 16:00–20:00.
- The orange zone: non-residents pay 2.10 EUR for 60 minutes in Ruzafa, El Botànic and La Roqueta, Monday to Friday 09:00–19:00, Saturdays 09:00–15:00.
Documents, insurance and the rental agreement
What you need in the car
- Non-EU licence: valid for driving here, provided it is in force and you are old enough for the equivalent Spanish category; DGT advises getting an international driving permit before you travel.
- Licence not in Spanish: either carry an official certified translation into Spanish, or hold one issued under Annex 9 of the Geneva Convention or Annex 6 of the Vienna Convention — a Cyrillic, Arabic or character-based licence effectively means an IDP or a sworn translation.
- International permit (Permiso Internacional de Conducción): a supplementary document only, shown together with your passport and your national licence; valid one year, grey tri-fold cover, 16 pages in Spanish, German, English, French, Italian, Portuguese, Arabic and Russian.
- Card: which cards are accepted and how the deposit is held are agreed when booking; the amount is set out in the rental agreement.
Insurance you are getting and insurance you can add
Compulsory third-party cover is included in any booking by Spanish law and applies even if the person driving was not named in the agreement. It pays for injury and property damage to others up to 70,000,000 EUR per incident for personal injury and 15,000,000 EUR for property, but it does not cover the driver or the car itself. The excess is printed in the agreement whatever you buy.
Before you sign and before you drive
Walk round the car and get every scratch and dent written into the agreement or the inspection sheet before you leave — both sides sign it, you keep a copy, and without that the damage is charged to you. If the model you booked is not there, you are entitled to another car at no extra cost, even a higher class; if you are given a lower class, the price should come down. Our side of the hand-over is agreed with a manager when booking: the delivery address, the date, the time and the paperwork.
