Economy & Standard Car Hire Options in Austria
The Practical Choice for Smart Travellers in Austria
Not every trip calls for a prestige vehicle. Many of the best Austria journeys are done in practical, fuel-efficient cars that are easier to park in busy city centres, cost less to run, and still feel comfortable on longer drives between regions.
Our economy and standard car hire range in Austria is built around exactly that principle. Reliable vehicles from well-regarded manufacturers, maintained to the Hertz standard, and available through convenient pick-up points across Austria.
Whether you are collecting your vehicle at Vienna, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Graz, or another key location, an economy or standard rental gives you everything you need without paying for what you do not.
Browse the full range below, compare your options, and book your economy car hire in Austria ahead of your trip.
