A compact SUV will be most useful during your visit to Shreveport. Due to the frequency of rain and thunderstorms, you will appreciate the higher vantage point while driving to avoid glare from other headlights. This option will also handle driving through water buildup, such as large puddles. Car rentals in Shreveport, particularly the maneuverability of a compact SUV, will allow you to safely navigate the busy downtown area with ease.
A majority of the two-lane highways in Louisiana have a 55mph speed limit. Within the city, you can expect 20mph speed limits in residential zones, with a 25mph speed limit strictly enforced in the downtown area due to heavy pedestrian traffic. Outside of the city, interstate speed limits can reach up to 75mph in rural areas. The highway patrol is known to strictly enforce the speed limit on freeways that pass through urban areas in Louisiana, such as Shreveport, where the speed limit drops to 65mph as you pass the city exits.
There are nearly 9,000 parking spots in downtown Shreveport, with free parking available along the riverfront of the Red River and in designated city surface parking lots. Metered parking is monitored throughout downtown, costing approximately $0.50 for 30min. There are many private parking lots and garages that cost significantly more than city zones. All street parking in downtown is free on weekends and from 5pm to 8am on weekdays.
The average price of fuel in Shreveport is €3.55 per litre over the past 30 days. Filling up a tank of fuel costs between €42 and €57, depending on the car size.

Oct 2020
Pros:
Thrifty car location was not on Hollywood Ave. So I went to the airport and the Thrify booth was closed with a sign saying go to the Hertz Booth where the man was very rude and told me he did not do third party rentals. So he wanted to rent me a Hertz car completely ignoring the reservation I had and the charges that were paid the day before online and he would not listen to me. He was RACIST and Rude at the Hertz Booth and tried to duplicate charge my card for another rental. He refuse to correct the problem which I was not able to rent a car. My card will be refunded as i recurved a letter saying it would.Cons:
First of all you did not tell me that Thrify was closed down on Hollywood Avenue Sevondly you did not tell me that the Thrify Booth was closed and that people would be sent to Hertz where this same older Racist rude white man would say I don’t do third party rentals this is my second experience with him.2.0 Poor

Jun 2016
Pros:
Very helpful and sympathetic AVIS staff. Reservation was cancelled at the desk with minimal issues.Cons:
I can't remember renting a car and being charged a mileage fee above and beyond the base price, taxes and other fees that are usually included in the quoted total. Even then, when I was presented with the "estimated cost" that substantially exceeded the price quoted on Kayak, Avis was only "estimating" 80 miles @ $0.30/mile when the rental agreement clearly stated that the car would be returned at a location >300 miles away! Very deceptive on both Kayak and Avis' parts! Thankfully, I had the option of driving my own vehicle and the reservation was cancelled.10.0 Wonderful

Some Shreveport car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend always be aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Shreveport.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a no-deductible option to your Shreveport car hire.
