Top tips for renting a car in Selangor

  • Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) is the primary airport serving the Selangor metropolitan area, so it is a suitable location to hire a car. When arriving at KUL, you should head toward the baggage claim area, and follow the sign to the arrival hall inside the main terminal building at the airport. Here you will find several car rental providers' counters. From the many car rental providers present at this airport, you can choose one and complete the necessary paperwork before picking up your rental car.
  • Driving in Selangor can be a challenging experience, particularly during peak hours. Selangor is one of Malaysia's most densely populated states, so it features excessive traffic congestion. The rush hour occurs during the morning and evening, from around 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., as commuters travel to and from work or school. Major thoroughfares such as the Federal Highway, North-South Expressway (NSE), Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP), and Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS) are severely affected during these rush hour periods, thus leading to significant delays, frustration, and increased accident risks. Plan your trips ahead of time to avoid rush hour traffic.
  • When considering a car for driving in Selangor, consider factors such as fuel efficiency, a reliable air conditioning system to cope with the region's tropical climate, and good suspension to handle the region's sometimes uneven terrain. In addition, due to the heavy traffic in urban areas, a compact car that is easy to maneuver may be advantageous for easier navigation and parking. However, if you enjoy longer road trips, a more comfortable and spacious SUV with features such as cruise control would be more ideal.
  • In Selangor, the child car seat rules mandate that children under the age of 12, measuring less than 136 cm (54 inches) in height and weighing less than 36 kg (79 lbs.) must be securely restrained in an appropriate car seat. The car seat installed in the vehicle must conform to the United Nations Regulation ECE R44 or ECE R129. The type of child seat required depends on the child's age, height, and weight.
  • Book your rental car in Selangor at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
