KAYAK’s insights & trends for Glasgow electric car hire

Check out the latest trends and booking tips to hire an electric car in Glasgow with confidence.

How far in advance should you book an electric car in Glasgow?

You should book your electric car hire in Glasgow around 69 days in advance to secure a below-average price. EV availability is more limited than petrol or diesel cars, so booking early helps you access the best models, especially Teslas and other long-range options.

In the past year, some of the lowest prices for electric car hire in Glasgow were found with DRIVALIA (£11/day), Avis (£14/day), and Budget (£14/day). Rates can vary by pick-up location, but airport-adjacent branches often offer competitive pricing.

Which electric car rental companies in Glasgow have electric vehicle locations?

Based on ratings and reviews from real users on KAYAK, Enterprise Rent-A-Car (8.2, 10 reviews), Avis (9.1, 9 reviews) and Budget (7.5, 24 reviews) operates the most EV-ready rental locations in Glasgow. This makes it easier to find an EV near Glasgow airports, like Glasgow Intl Airport and Edinburgh Turnhouse Airport.

What is the cheapest month to hire an electric car in Glasgow?

The cheapest month to hire an electric car in Glasgow is typically November, when demand is lower and daily rates drop. The most expensive month is December, when travel peaks and EV hire becomes harder to secure.

The car had been put through a car wash but I would not say it was clean or well presented. There were residual items on it. (Bird droppings). To be fair, I have rented cars from other providers at Glasgow airport and they are similar. This is more a “site problem” than an Avis problem. I hated the car - I would now actively avoid MG in any car rental. Awful. Not an Avis specific problem.

This was as simple as it gets. On line check in so all ready by the time I arrived. Staff were spot on, full explanation and a quick pick up. I was met on return to the carpark and the paperwork was all done in a couple of minutes. A very good customer experience overall.

Enterprise were unable to provide us with a replacement car when the power steering stopped working. We had to rely on public transportation for the last week of our vacation. We are never using Enterprise again. Awful service!!!

Staff was fantastic at pick up and drop off. However, we prepaid through Kayak and our vehicle was not available. Our only choices were to go without a vehicle or pay double to upgrade. The last minute rental was a bit pricey to begin with, and the final cost was exorbitant.

I hate MG and actively avoid selecting any MG. They are terrible cars. This rental there were only MGs available despite there being the appearance of choice at booking. There was a kia sportage or similar in a separate price/offer from the MG HS at the booking page. I chose the kia and got the MG with no other option available at collection.

Staff was very nice. The reason I submitted a poor reason was for the administration fee they charged me for a parking violation of 45 GBP. That seemed unnecessarily exorbitant .
