By car to the Utiel-Requena wine region

For the run inland to Requena and Utiel, the Kia Stonic opens the page at €33 a day, and the Toyota RAV4 at €52 adds a hybrid automatic with 218 hp. Rent-Trip keeps 43 cars on this page, from €33 to €75 a day.

Why a car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country beats any other plan

A delivered car turns that geography into a single unhurried day instead of a timetable problem.

Why a delivered car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country works better than public transport

We deliver the car to any address in Valencia and to Valencia Airport (VLC), so the wine-country day starts from your door rather than from a depot on the edge of the city. The delivery address, the date and the time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed — that matters when you want to leave at 08:30 and be back before dinner. Plan the day around a cluster of estates, not a checklist.

Which car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country suits your group

43 cars in four classes — Crossover, Comfort, SUV and Minivans — sit behind this page, and the choice comes down to three things: seats, transmission, and how far off the A-3 you plan to go.

Crossover and Comfort cars for the A-3 run

Crossover is our cheapest class — 14 cars from €33 per day, starting with the Kia Stonic (5 seats, Petrol, Manual, 1.0 L, 100 hp). The Jeep Avenger at €34 per day runs a 1.2 L, 100 hp petrol engine with a manual box, while the Jeep Renegade at €34 adds Hybrid and Automatic for the identical inland drive. Toyota Yaris Cross and Volkswagen T-Cross both sit at €35–€36 per day with 5 seats and automatic transmission.

SUV and Minivans for vineyard tracks and groups

SUV gives you 10 cars from €44 per day, and Minivans 8 cars from €52 per day with 5 or 7 seats — the Dacia Jogger (Hybrid, Manual, 1.6 L, 110 hp) is the cheapest 7-seater on the page. For a full group, the Nissan X-Trail at €54 per day carries 7 seats with Front-wheel / AWD, and the Peugeot 5008 at €64 per day pairs 7 seats with a Diesel Automatic.

Seats, fuel and transmission across the fleet

• Seats: the fleet covers 4, 5 and 7 seats — 4 seats in the Mini Cooper, 5 across Crossover, Comfort and most SUV, 7 in the Minivans and the Nissan X-Trail.
• Transmission: Automatic and Manual are both available — the manual box dominates Crossover (nine of fourteen) and Comfort (seven of eleven), while SUV leans automatic (six of ten).
• Best for two people: a Crossover from €33 per day keeps the wine-country day cheap.
• Best for a group of five or six: a 7-seat Minivan from €52 per day.

Models and daily rates side by side

Weekly bookings run at six times the daily rate and monthly at twenty-one times, so a Crossover week starts at €198 and a Crossover month at €693; the class you pick is the single biggest lever on the total, and the delivery address, date and time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed.

Prices by class for car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country

Crossover, Comfort, SUV and Minivans are the four groups we hold for this route; weekly bookings are charged at the daily rate multiplied by six, monthly at the daily rate multiplied by twenty-one. Longer hires are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed.

What each class costs per day

• Crossover: 14 cars from €33, the cheapest group on the page — Kia Stonic, Jeep Avenger, Jeep Renegade, Nissan Juke, Seat Arona, Toyota Yaris Cross and Ford Puma all sit here.
• Comfort: 11 cars from €40 — hatchbacks and estates such as the Kia Ceed, Ford Focus, Hyundai i30, Toyota Corolla and the Ford Focus Estate with its Diesel engine.
• SUV: 10 cars from €44 — Kia Sportage, Nissan Qashqai, Seat Ateca, Hyundai Tucson, Peugeot 3008 and larger options up to the BMW X3 at €58.
• Minivans: 8 cars from €52 — the Dacia Jogger, Opel Combo, Peugeot Rifter, Renault Grand Scenic and Peugeot 5008, with 5 or 7 seats.

Daily rates by model

Delivery fees, the deposit and any insurance excess are set out in the rental agreement — no figure here replaces the contract.

The drive inland — what car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country puts on your route

The A-3 leaves the city and runs west, inland, to the wine country. The drive is short enough for a day trip and long enough that the return leg matters as much as the outbound one.

The A-3 out of the city and what you pass

The road inland is the A-3, the Valencia–Madrid autovía, with the 120 km/h autovía limit.

Which car makes the return leg easier

On a day that covers both Requena and Utiel, the Ford Focus Estate at €46 per day is the diesel estate on this page.

Fuel and timing on the A-3 run

Gasolina 95 E5 averaged €1.978 per litre across the 62 stations surveyed in the municipality, with a median of €2.039 and a range from €1.74 to €2.089; Gasóleo A averaged €1.923 per litre over 63 stations. The A-3 is a free autovía, so the inland route carries no péage either way. Our cars leave with a full tank and come back full — the full-to-full policy keeps the arithmetic simple on a round trip of about 140 km.

Booking car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country with a manager

Booking runs through a manager, not a self-service checkout: you name the dates and the address, we confirm the car and the delivery window, and only then is the booking fixed.

What we need from you to fix the booking

• Delivery address: a hotel, an apartment or Valencia Airport (VLC) — the exact point is confirmed with the manager, since delivery outside the city is arranged case by case.
• Class or model: Crossover from €33 per day, Comfort from €40, SUV from €44 or Minivans from €52 — naming a specific car such as the Kia Stonic or the Jeep Renegade is fine if you want it.

How the booking is agreed

The delivery address, the date and the time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed — that is the whole sequence. You do not need to reach an office, queue at a desk or collect keys from a counter: the car is brought to the address you gave.

The inland run to the Utiel-Requena DO fits into a single day, so a one-day booking can cover it. Weekly bookings work out at the daily rate times six, monthly at the daily rate times twenty-one.

Fuel, parking and city rules around car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country

Three things decide how smooth that day is: the fuel you buy, where the car sleeps overnight, and whether your vehicle carries the right DGT sticker.

Fuel for the A-3 run

• Gasolina 95 E5: averages €1.978 per litre across 62 stations in the municipality of València, with a median of €2.039 and a spread from €1.74 to €2.089.
• Gasóleo A: averages €1.923 per litre across 63 municipal stations, median €1.959, minimum €1.769.
• Gasolina 98 E5: averages €2.148 per litre across 42 stations, a thinner sample than the 95 grade.
• Province-wide picture: across the province of Valencia, Gasolina 95 E5 averages €1.915 per litre over 602 stations and Gasóleo A €1.896 over 627 — about six and three cents below the municipal averages.
• Our fuel rule: the car is supplied with a full tank and must be returned with a full tank (lleno-lleno); anything else is charged as set out in the rental agreement.

Parking the car in Valencia

Zona azul centro covers Ciutat Vella, L'Eixample and Extramurs. Rotation hours for non-residents in the orange zone depend on the district: Ciutat Vella runs Monday to Friday 9:00–20:00, while Ruzafa, El Botànic and La Roqueta run 9:00–19:00, and Saturdays 9:00–15:00 everywhere. Outside those hours the bay is residents-only.

The ZBE València boundary

The ZBE València (Zona de Bajas Emisiones) covers 27.8 km² inside Ronda Nord, the avenidas de Tarongers and Serradora, and Bulevard Sud. Stage one, from 01.12.2025 to 31.12.2026, restricts only category A cars — petrol registered before 2001 and diesel before 2006 — registered outside the province of Valencia. From 01.01.2027 that widens to cars registered outside the city, and from 01.01.2028 to all category A cars including residents'. Vehicles carrying a Spanish plate and a DGT sticker (B, C, ECO or 0) fall outside the restriction — only category A is targeted.

Documents and driving rules for car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country

Paperwork for the inland drive is settled long before the A-3, so this section covers only what a driver actually needs: which licence works in Spain, how the alcohol and speed limits read on the road to Requena, and what the ZBE València means for a car heading out of the city.

Licences that are valid in Spain

• EU/EEA licence: valid in Spain as it stands, for as long as it has not expired — nothing extra is needed, and an IDP is not required.
• Third-country licence: valid if the licence is in force and the holder is old enough for the equivalent Spanish category; after six months of taking up ordinary residence in Spain it stops being valid, and the DGT advises getting an IDP before the trip.
• Licence not in Spanish: accepted either with an official sworn translation into Spanish, or if it was issued on the model of Annex 9 of the Geneva Convention or Annex 6 of the Vienna Convention.
• Permiso Internacional de Conducción: a supplementary document shown only together with the passport and the national licence; it runs for one year.

Speed, alcohol and fines on the inland route

Speeding is fined on the DGT table at 100 EUR with no points, 300 EUR with 2 points, 400 EUR with 4, 500 EUR with 6 and 600 EUR with 6 for the gravest band, and going more than 60 km/h over the limit in town or 80 km/h over it outside town is a criminal offence rather than an administrative fine. Alcohol reads 0.25 mg/l of breath for most drivers and 0.15 mg/l for novices in their first two years and for professional drivers; above 0.60 mg/l it becomes a crime. A phone held in the hand is 200 EUR and 6 points, and an unfastened belt or a child without a seat is 200 EUR and 4 points — child restraints are mandatory below 135 cm. Fines drop by 50 % when paid within 20 calendar days.

ZBE València and the drive out

The ZBE València (Zona de Bajas Emisiones) covers 27.8 km² inside Ronda Nord and the avenidas de Tarongers and Serradora up to Bulevard Sud, and the staged restrictions begin with cars without a DGT sticker registered outside the province of Valencia. Rental cars carrying Spanish plates and a DGT sticker (B, C, ECO or 0) fall outside those restrictions, since only category A is limited.

Practical conclusion on car rental in Valencia for a trip to Requena and Utiel wine country

The fleet on this page holds 43 cars from €33 to €75 per day, and the car arrives at your address with a full tank, which means the first fuel stop is already behind you when you pull onto the motorway.

The practical sequence is short. Pick a class by seats and gearbox, agree the delivery address, date and time with a manager, and confirm the booking once those details are settled. Delivery outside the city is arranged case by case and is not promised on the site, so if your plan starts somewhere else, raise it before the booking is fixed rather than after.

• Class first, model second: Crossover from €33, Comfort from €40, SUV from €44 and Minivans from €52 per day — choose the class that fits your group, then the exact model.
• Seats decide the car: 4, 5 and 7 seats are available; the Dacia Jogger at €52 per day is the cheapest 7-seater.
• Longer bookings: a week is charged as the daily rate × 6 and a month as the daily rate × 21, so a weekly rate starts at €198.
• Return with a full tank: fuel is full-to-full (lleno-lleno in Spain); the missing fuel and a refuelling service fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement.
