An SUV is a convenient model to choose for a rental car in Springfield, as the city’s roads are large, giving you plenty of space to weave through traffic. This type of vehicle will also come in handy if you’re driving in the rain, snow, or ice, as it will give you stability. If you decide to go on a long drive for something like a hiking trip, an SUV will also provide you with extra space to stay comfortable, as well as room for your recreational equipment.

Many of the major intersections in Springfield have traffic cameras, so make sure to always follow the laws to prevent being pulled over. Search car hire on KAYAK

Car rentals in Springfield give you the freedom to visit all of the local attractions on your to-do list, whether it be the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, the Dana Thomas House, or the Illinois State Museum. Having access to your own vehicle will also make it easy to explore cities in the surrounding region, including Bloomington and Decatur. You can even head to Lincoln's New Salem, a state park that is approximately a 30min drive from Springfield.
If you’re interested in booking car rentals in Springfield, you can conveniently pick them up directly from Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport. To pick up your vehicle, head to the Car Rental Center that is located in the east end of the main terminal, near the door marked "D." It is within walking distance of the Arrivals Terminal, so you don’t need to worry about taking a shuttle or taxi to get there. There are a few different companies based here, including Avis, Budget, and Hertz.
As Springfield is a busy city, particularly in certain neighborhoods like downtown and the Historic West-Side, you’ll find that there are many pedestrians and cyclists in the streets. Make sure to be cautious when driving and keep your eyes open for anyone crossing the road or in a bike lane. Many large streets can be confusing to navigate for those that are not used to driving in the city, so you can always choose to add GPS to Springfield car rentals to make it easier to find your way.
Several of the local highways are known for having a substantial amount of traffic during rush hour, including 4, 55, and 97. To save yourself time when driving to your destination, avoid taking these roads during the hours of 8-9am and 5-6pm. During the winter months, there may be snow or ice on the roads, so drive as cautiously as possible if this is the case. Always check to make sure that your vehicle is equipped with proper winter equipment.

Customer personnel were great. The interior windows were dirty and hard to see out of when we arrived in the fog. The vehicle had a few more dents and dings than on the original sheet.

The employees were nice and wanted to accommodate my needs.

Cons:

My vehicle was not ready when I arrived, they were sanitizing it. Then they didn't have the class of car that I had made my reservation for and it wasn't available at any other location in town. They even called and confirmed it the day before.
