Detroit SUV rentals typically have more seating capacity than standard cars, making them suitable for larger groups of travelers or families. SUVs often come equipped with advanced safety features, such as collision avoidance systems, lane departure warnings, and blind-spot monitoring, enhancing driver and passenger safety. If you plan to explore the Great Lakes region or go on road trips to nearby attractions like the Henry Ford Museum or Mackinac Island, the spacious interior of an SUV provides comfort and room for passengers and luggage.
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is a convenient location for securing Detroit SUV rentals. After retrieving your baggage, simply follow the signs to Ground Transportation. There, you can catch a complimentary shuttle that will transport you to the rental car campus, where you'll find nine rental car companies ready to assist you. Shuttle bus stops for rental car services are conveniently located within the Ground Transportation Centers of both garages at the airport.
Like many cities in the Midwest, Detroit is known for its potholes, especially after winter. Detroit experiences snowy and icy winters. If you're driving Detroit SUV rentals during the winter months, consider renting an SUV with all-wheel drive or four-wheel drive for better traction on slippery roads. SUVs may have a larger turning radius than smaller vehicles. Be mindful when navigating tight corners or parking lots. Ensure your SUV is locked when parked, and never leave valuable items in plain sight.
Weekdays between approximately 7:00 and 9:00 am can be particularly congested on major highways like I-94 and I-75. This is also true between 4:00 and 6:00 pm on weekdays. Friday afternoons during rush hour can be especially challenging, as many people start their weekend travel plans or head out for social activities. Detroit hosts a variety of events, including sports games, concerts, and festivals. Traffic around event venues, such as Ford Field, Comerica Park, and Little Caesars Arena, can be congested on event days.

Where are some good areas that I can park an SUV in Detroit?
Downtown Detroit has numerous parking garages and lots, many of which can accommodate SUVs. Popular options include the Renaissance Center Parking Garage and the Premier Underground Garage. The cost for these areas runs from around $7 to $12 for 1 hour of parking.

What types of documents will I need to rent an SUV in Detroit?
You must have a valid driver's license. Rental car agencies typically require renters to be at least 21 years old. Drivers under 25 may be subject to a young driver surcharge. A major credit card in the name of the primary driver is usually required for the rental. It's a good idea to make a reservation in advance with your chosen rental car agency. Many rental car agencies offer optional insurance coverage. However, it's advisable to have your proof of personal auto insurance, as your policy may provide coverage for rental vehicles.

Nearly 60 minutes in line to check in. Lack of staff to attend to very long line of customers. Returning car was easy .. very small airport….but charged me double stating that the gas tank was not full on return. Spent an hour on phone with customer service.. emailed gas receipt and finally got charge removed. Not sure how such a simple thing as reading gas tank level can get screwed up. I feel that a charge was trying to be slipped in hoping I would not look at emailed receipt. Not acceptable.

The car ran poorly. It had over 53K miles and accelerated poorly and was sluggish. We were unable to swap it out because we were under tight time constraints and in different cities. The fuel economy was decent, but the car struggled to go over 60mph as needed on I-94.

At the last minute, when I went to pick up the car, I was an 1-2 hour early. The Hertz representative charged me extra money for picking up my car early, which I think is ridiculous. You are allowed to pick up cars as early as previous nite with no charges in cities where office closes at 5 pm., but Hertz charged me for 2 hours extra. Ridiculous!

Pros:

Staff was helpful and the drop off was VERY quick and easy.

Cons:

Computers were down when picking up my rental, so there was a long line and long wait to complete the paperwork. Then, after the paperwork was completed, they had to radio someone to bring up our rental (a minivan) and we waited more than 20 minutes for someone to bring it. I went back to the counter and asked if the van was somewhere we could walk to and pick it up and they radioed again. Then I watched as a porter went to a minivan that was a short walk (maybe 100 yards away) and drive the car to the front of the building.
