What to expect from this class
The catch is never the car, it is the return policy: suppliers differ on the state of charge you must return at, and the penalty for returning low can be steep. We put the charge-return rule in writing on every EV quote, along with whether the pickup location has chargers on site.
- 5 seats
- 3 bags
- Charging required
Capacities shown are typical for the class and are not guaranteed by any supplier. If luggage or seating is tight for your group, say so when you request a quote and we will size the booking against your actual bags rather than the category name.
Other classes worth quoting alongside it
Economy
- 4 seats
- 2 small bags
- Best fuel economy
The least expensive class in most fleets. Fine for two adults, city driving and short highway runs; tight on luggage and on long climbs with a full load.
What this class really means
Compact
- 5 seats
- 2 bags
- Easy to park
One size up from economy. Noticeably better on the interstate, still small enough for old downtowns and tight garages.
What this class really means
Midsize sedan
- 5 seats
- 3 bags
- Long-drive comfort
The default American road-trip car. Comfortable at highway speed for hours, sensible on fuel, big enough for a family of four with luggage.
What this class really means
Full-size sedan
- 5 seats
- 4 bags
- Extra rear legroom
More rear legroom and more boot than a midsize, without moving up to an SUV’s fuel bill.
