Top tips for renting a car in Newark

  • If your car hire provider has a rental booth at the car rental center at Station P3, take the Newark Air Train at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to get there. The Air Train is free of charge for on-airport transport services. During the day, the Air Train operates every 3 minutes, while from 9 pm, it operates every 15 minutes. Exit the arrivals area by following the airport signs towards the baggage claim. Walk to Newark Air Train station at the terminal, which is on the top floor of the building. The Air Train will stop at Station P3. Alight the train and go down the escalator; the car rental center is outside the doors.
  • New Jersey imposes heavy fines on anyone driving while drunk. The BAC limit is 0.08% and any having higher concentrations while on the wheel attracts a DUI. If you’re in driving during heavy rains, turn on your headlights. Heavy rains reduce visibility on the road leading to road accidents. Also, always have your headlights on 30 minutes before sunrise and after sunset. The left lanes in Newark are not for driving; they are for passing. If you’re driving slowly, use the slow lane and always drive on the right. Young children in all vehicles in Newark must be secured to an appropriate child seat.
  • The drive from EWR to downtown Newark takes approximately 15 minutes. To head to downtown Newark, drive south on Lindbergh Road. Continue on the road, then make a left to Hotel Road. While on Hotel Road, follow the signs leading to NJ-21 N and join it. Make a left onto Lafayette Street after a few minutes on NJ-21 N. Join Mulberry Street by making a right and then take a left to Market Street. Continue on Market Street, which will take you straight to downtown Newark. Some attractions to explore in downtown with Newark car rentals include Newark Museum, Newark Public Library, and Newark Penn Station.
  • Newark, New Jersey is a short drive to many other states including New York, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut. If you rent a car, you’ll be able to see so much more while on vacation. Spend a day or two in New York City then make a day trip to New Canaan, Connecticut to tour the Glass House or Bethlehem, Pennsylvania for some casino fun.
  • Flying into Newark offers easy access to numerous cities including Trenton, Long Island, Hoboken, and New York City. At Newark Liberty International Airport you’ll find it easy to rent a car. Depending upon what company you use, you can get to the rental desk at Station P2 or P3.
  • During your stay, you’ll find yourself frequenting the New Jersey Turnpike to get to numerous destinations including Hackensack and Ridgefield Park. Nevertheless, the turnpike can get really busy. If traveling north on the turnpike, consider taking the I-295 instead. It will be less hectic and lets you avoid the tolls, plus you can also get back on the turnpike from here if needed.
  • Traffic in Newark can be quite heavy during the daily commute. Newark’s rush hour is most busy from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. During this time the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway become especially congested. Before you leave the hotel you should listen to the traffic report to learn about accidents or construction projects. Alternative routes are also suggested.

FAQs about renting a car in Newark

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Newark?

    Newark enjoys four distinct seasons – winter, spring, summer, and fall. So if you are visiting for the Christmas or New Year’s holiday, you might experience lots of snow. Therefore, an SUV might be best to get you through the snowy conditions. Other times of the year, a smart or compact car might be best when visiting Newark because of parking limitations. Simply put, a smaller car can more easily fit into a tight parking spot on the street.

  • What’s the speed limit in Newark?

    The speed limit is 65 mph on both the Garden State Parkway and the NJ Turnpike.

Around the downtown area the speed limit is 30 mph. Watch for signs to avoid getting a speeding ticket.

I left my purse somewhere between the rental car return and the train so dashed back to trace my steps and met the nicest enterprise employee ever who quickly took me to the car to check, called his manager and then the manager called the train folks. Happy ending in that my purse was returned and we were able to catch our scheduled flight! It started with two very conscientious Enterprise employees. I failed to get their names but am sending them a high five!

Pros:

The drop off was great. Service in Atlanta was very fast and contactless. The rental hold money was returned quickly following drop off. The car ran fine.

Cons:

The car was not very clean either inside or outside upon pickup. The car was not available at the pick up time and I had to wait about 45 minutes to an hour for a vehicle to arrive that I could use. The person checking me in was not forthcoming about the amount Alamo was going to charge my card which caused unnecessary confusion during pickup. I have used Alamo before and did not have any problems when renting in other states so my family will likely rent from them again in the future. Maybe it was the ERW airport having an off day.

My agreement was for $405.53, my receipt said $405.53 but my credit card was charged 605.53. This is unacceptable, what is that extra $200? There is no accounting for it in the receipt, I didn't check my credit card charge prior to checking out but instead used my printed receipt to check the charge. The charge hasn't officially cleared yet but I am concerned that this was a bait and switch by Avis.

Cons:

The inside windshield was covered with a residue film as if cleaned seemed to have been cleaned with a lysol wipe or something resulting in dangerous visibility; which became noticeable once out into traffic and nighttime headlights. Desperately trying to clean it with my sleeve, I missed the exit resulting in an unwanted late night tour through Newark. The agent at Newark was pleasant enough, though I had no instructions concerning dropbox drop off resulting in two trips of considerable distance from the rental lot at ABE at 11 PM. I’m sure there’s small print somewhere, but the price went from $81 to ringing up to $250, which the agent explained was $100 holding fee, hopefully refundable for my two hour rentsl.

Nov 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

Nothing. Hertz did not have an available car from me at the location my reservation time, even though I made AND PAID FOR the reservation in advance. The location not only ran out of cars hours before my reservation, but they did not think to even call me to tell me that they will not be able to honor my reservation. I had to commute almost two hours to reach the Hertz location. I only found out AFTER reaching the Hertz location that my reservation would not be honored. The location also refused to assist me with my dilemma. I am STILL actively trying to get my money back for a service they refused to provide.

Cons:

Confirm the location will have a car when a reservation is made in advance. I made the reservation over a week in advance. There is NO REASON AT ALL for Hertz to not have a car ready for me when I arrived.

Despite providing both Kayak and Sixt my flight arrival time into EWR, the Sixt rental counter desk was closed and I was unable to retrieve the car I had reserved and pre-paid. Fortunately, the other major rental car brand desks were open and I rented elsewhere. Thus far Sixt has resisted refunding their $400+ charge. Rent from Sixt in the US at your own risk.

Avoid at all costs! I received a scratched up car and was assured it was fine by the agents. I was not provided a paper receipt when requested and now Sixt is trying to hold me accountable for a smudge (not even a scratch) on the cover of a mirror. Garbage rental car company.

Three hours wait to get cars. Staff wasn’t sensitive to delays at all and no sense of urgency shown to clear queues. Nearby rental companies on the contrary were moving at lightning speed. Terrible experience overall

Wait time to check-in was 15-20 minutes while being the first one on queue. A lot of confusing offers for protection and other add-ons which resulted in additional charges. Car was not well cleaned. There were hideous stains on the interior roof of the car. The car itself, while being an upgrade, was not well maintained -- car shook uncontrollably between 60-70mph on the freeway. Drop-off was confusing and aggravating. No visible attendant on-site for the drop-off. The signage for where to return the car was also not visible. We ook the trouble to park into a Sixt parking spot and was walking toward rental office when approached by an attendant in one of the returned cars. She was combative and aggressive in asking why we did not find her to check back in the car. We would have had she been around and visible. Maybe it was not entirely her fault as perhaps the agency was short-staffed, however, the customer should not have been made to feel as if we did something wrong when we were just trying to be helpful.

The car smelled like cigarette smoke. They refused to give me a printed contract. They insisted that they take my photo before renting the car. When I refused, since I've never heard of such a thing, they made me wait at least 20 minutes to get a short form. Then on return, I was told I'd be reimbursed for the days I didn't use, but I was not.

I ordered a compact car but when I arrived they gave me a huge car that I wasn’t comfortable driving. I told them I wanted a compact car because that was what I ordered but when I said that she said they didn’t have anything else so I had no other choice because I had to leave at 8 in order to make it to my destination. They put me in a very uncomfortable situation and that was not what I paid for annnd on top of that I had to pay double the gas price because it was such a big car and gas is incredibly expensive right now. All around a bad experience because I had no other choice after trekking all the way to the airport and couldn’t just turn around or get a different car.

May 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

Drop off was quick and painless. I think we waited about 25 minutes for the van to be ready at the Newark airport when we went to pick it up. We had a Chrysler Pacifica van and it ran well, got over 25 mpg driving fast, and the AC worked good.

Cons:

On the downside, the third seat was elecric folding and it did not work properly. We had to manually push the cushions down to get a flat floor. For a long trip, the front seats in the Pacifica van are strictly mediocre, and the 2nd row seats are awful - like a padded jump seat. Too many gadgets. I will reserve final judgement on the billing for when we get the credit card statement.

KAYAK

Pros:

The car was spacious, the pickup representative was very kind despite our delay, as a van (which was reserved and needed for moving space) wasn't at first available and we had to wait. The car ran nicely and was very clean.

Cons:

Transparency of cost. We just received our final charge and were surprised by a $150 cleaning fee, despite the car being perfectly clean upon returning it. This was not disclosed prior to our dropoff and really pushed the cost of this rental over the line for us financially. Had we known of so many surprise fees, we would not have booked at this cost.

Please ensure that u add additional time to your booking in the beginning itself. They charged me for 2 whole additional days for returning the car about 3 hours late. Also, the Audi Q3 is not the best option for a long drive. The car hydroplaned massively on wet road conditions in upstate NY. Seat quality and ride quality left a whole lot to be desired. Overall, I’m extremely disappointed. Wouldn’t be recommending.

Only after you make to reservation you find out where the rental location is. Take the train to the "hotel pickup". Don't go to the "Rental Car" station. READ THE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY!

Pros:

the car was very old and was malfunctioning. I could barely drive up-hill as the engine was stalling. I had difficulty passing other cars as I couldn't accelerate due to engine problems, I guess? This car should have not been in service as it wasn't safe for the driver or for the passing traffic. Additionally, Ace charged me $350 on my credit card even though I prepaid for the rental. I never got a receipt for the charge and I'm disputing it with my credit card. Ace office was old and smelly, the employees were smoking cigarettes in the office. Terrible experience for a car rental. I will never use ACE again
