26 Car Rental Brands at Sydney International Airport (SYD)

The rental company service was fine, but they didn't provide the car I reserved and just gave me a different one.

Both T1 and T2 can be used for picking up and returning cars. For returns at T1, it's at the parking lot P7 directly across the street—make sure to watch for the signs as they're quite small and easy to miss. For pickups at T2, you need to take a shuttle bus to a parking lot. Just wait at the exit near the rental counter for the bus to arrive.

Great, only charged a $100 deposit, and it was refunded within minutes after returning the car.

Reviewed: Oct 9, 2025

As an international company, the overall process is well-organized, and the deposit refund is swift. Toll fees are automatically linked to a temporary Linkt account, deducted directly from the credit card without requiring separate arrangements.

If I had another chance to choose, I would never rent this MG3. From now on, all MG models are on my blacklist. The suspension is unbelievably bad. The front windshield and side windows have no sun protection at all; renting this means suffering.

The car provided was perfectly suited for my long road trip since they knew I needed it for an extended period. Returning the car was incredibly quick—before I even finished taking pictures, the process was already completed, and I was informed everything was fine. The car was then moved nearby for cleaning and washing. The mobile navigation system connected directly to the car, which was very convenient. The vehicle had various alerts, such as speeding, speed limits, turning, eye focus, and rest reminders. Picking up the car was also very quick. I got a nearly brand-new car, less than a year old, in decent condition. The previous driver might have frequently driven in mountainous areas since the full tank range showed 460 kilometers with a fuel consumption of around 10 liters per 100 kilometers. In my actual use, the fuel consumption was just 6 liters per 100 kilometers, and the full tank range displayed was around 570 kilometers. The highway tolls were processed directly, with a small service fee charged per transaction, roughly 1.5 AUD.

I want to remind fellow renters that during the car pickup process, it’s essential to confirm with the rental office that you’re getting the exact model you requested. Since I needed space for two golf bags, I specifically chose a medium SUV, the Toyota RAV4, when placing my order. However, after completing the paperwork and heading to the parking lot with my luggage, I saw that the car was actually a small SUV. I had to carry my luggage back to the counter and communicate with them to get it changed to a RAV4. This took an additional 10 minutes, but thankfully, the issue was eventually resolved.

Like: The cars were perfect and immaculate.
Dislike: That there were hidden costs. We rented 2 cars and on the site stated no other costs. Upon pickup we had to pay bonds of $200 each plus insurance which costs over $500NZD. They don't take cash either. Wish we knew prior so we could leave cash in accounts rather than having cashed out all our spending then having to call home to transfer etc... delayed process and not good start to trip. ALL costs including bond etc.. should be mentioned.
