A compact car model is perfectly suited to Penrith’s high-density urban zone. Smaller vehicles can squeeze through one-way streets with more margin for error while also navigating traffic in busy periods. Mini models are priced similarly to economy cars and offer even greater manoeuvrability for parking, though they sacrifice storage and passenger space.

Some Penrith car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Penrith.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Penrith car hire.
