Tips for saving on rental cars in Hobart, Tasmania
Booking your Hobart car hire in advance is the best way to secure competitive rates. As with other popular Australian destinations, rental car prices in Hobart tend to rise as demand increases — especially during peak tourist periods. For the best prices, it’s wise to book your hire car in Hobart at least a few weeks ahead of your travel date.
Leaving your booking to the last minute, particularly during holidays or school breaks, can result in limited availability and higher daily rates.
Australia’s southernmost capital city, Hobart offers terrific reason for visiting regardless of the season:
Summer: December to February (longer days and warm)
Autumn: March to May (cool)
Winter: June to August (short days, cold and rainy)
Spring: September to November (starting to warm up)
While summer is the most popular season to visit, especially for those interesting in exploring the great outdoors or sampling Hobart’s many festivals, Spring and Autumn deliver both stunning fall foliage and the blooming gardens the state is famous for. Although cold and often wet, Winter is an ideal time to visit for lesser crowds, lower prices, and particularly for exploring both Launceston and Hobart and the many museums and galleries they host.
December to February: Peak tourism season — book early
School holidays, Easter, long weekends: High demand and prices
Christmas–New Year period: Second major peak — book well in advance
While it’s convenient to pick up a car directly at Hobart Airport (HBA), you’ll usually pay more. Airport rental locations are considered premium pickup points across Australia, and this designation is reflected in the prices for car hire.
You can often find better deals by renting from an off-airport car hire company in Hobart. These providers typically offer a free shuttle service from the airport to their depot. It adds a bit of extra time, but the cost savings can be significant.
The most affordable option may be to book your rental car from a suburban or inner-city Hobart location. While these don’t usually offer transfers from the airport, they can offer the lowest base rates — especially if you’re already staying nearby.
Vroom Vroom Vroom compares prices from a wide range of Hobart car rental providers, including on-airport, off-airport, and city depots. Whether you’re looking for a budget hatchback, a family SUV, or a 4WD for exploring the eastern coast of Tasmania, we can help you find the right car at the right price.
On hiring a car in Hobart City, Tasmania
Prices start at AUD $34 per day for an Economy Car, up to AUD $185 per day for a Standard SUV. Get a live rate for your planned dates and desired vehicle in Hobart.
If you are looking for a Luxury SUV option, the rate is AUD $125 per day. Make sure to check a live rate for your desired car hire dates in Hobart.
If you prefer to plug your car in rather than fill it up, an Electric Car costs between AUD $92 and AUD $184 per day. Enter your car hire dates and find a live rate for your desired Electric Car in Hobart.
If you’ve got a crowd, but don’t need something as large as a bus, then a 7-seater or 8-seater Minivan hire might be your best option. A Minivan costs between AUD $117 and AUD $301 per day. Check for a live rate by entering your desired car hire dates in Hobart.
The highest-rated rental car in Hobart is Kia Sportage or similar, based on ratings by our customers within the last 12 months.
Avis is the highest-rated car hire provider in Hobart, based on ratings by our customers.
The per-day rates of some rental cars may fall if you book for a longer rental period. Prices often change around daily, three-day, five-day and seven-day periods. Also, note that the selection of rental cars available in Hobart may be more limited if you are looking for a long-term car rental, so it’s best to compare a few different booking durations first.
In our experience, the best tip when looking to rent a car in Hobart is to book as early as possible. As Hobart is an isolated city that is not on the Australian mainland, it can be hard for car rental providers to source more vehicles if they’re booked out. Booking in advance and checking rates from time to time are both recommended approaches.
The Spirit of Tasmania is the ferry service between Tasmania and Melbourne - and although cars are permitted on the ferry, most rental car providers will not allow their cars to be taken on this ferry. If you require further information, please feel free to contact our customer care team.
