The car drove amazing. No issues at all. Upon pick up the car was well cleaned and ready for pick up. Me, my girlfriend and dog took a trip to ohio and the car is great on gas.

Hyundai Elantra 2024

The car was great. I used it for two days and i can say many great things about it. The elantra drove smoothly, on local roads and highways. It has a backup camera and blind spot detectors, and they were very helpful when it came to merging and switching lanes. I was able to connect my phone to the blue tooth system and control the volume inputs easily, as well as the AC/Heat. This car was very nice to drive and park, and i would definitely book it again. The host was amazing, anytime i texted him or called him for anything, he gave me a response and answered my questions without any problems. He unlocked the car within minutes after i arrived and uploaded pictures, overall the communication was great. i would book this host again. The area I picked this car up from in New Jersey seemed to be a nice neighborhood, and i was even able to order an uber after i returned the car.

Top tips for renting a car in Yonkers


Whether you're navigating back roads like Ridge Avenue or trekking to New York City via Interstate 87, your rental car allows you to freely explore any section of Yonkers or the surrounding areas. Before your journey begins, consider the following car rental tips.


What are the road rules and driving conditions in Yonkers?


While driving in Yonkers is easier than doing so in the heart of NYC, it can still take some getting used to. If you're driving in the area during rush hour, traffic congestion is common on roads like Interstate 87, Saw Mill River Parkway, and Highway 9. While the downtown district is often busy with pedestrians walking around the area, the abundant traffic lights will help you navigate the streets without issue.


Even though the speed limit can be higher or lower in certain areas, the default limit on Yonkers streets is 30 mph. However, speed limits on most roads shift between 20 and 40 mph. If you're driving on a highway like I-87, you can expect the speed limit to be around 55 mph for most of your drive.


When you're planning a trip to Yonkers, consider the time of year you intend to visit. During the winter, the town often receives more than 2 feet of snow. If you travel to the area between November and March, you may need to drive on snow-packed roads. To make sure your trip isn't negatively impacted, consider booking a vehicle that offers AWD or 4WD functionality, such as the Volkswagen Tiguan or GMC Sierra 1500.


What is parking like in Yonkers?


Because of the city's proximity to NYC, open parking spaces can be somewhat challenging to find in Yonkers. Most of the parking options in town are on-street spaces. Metered spaces are either free for up to two hours or available for $1 to $1.25 per hour. The Buena Vista Parking Garage charges $3 for the first hour and $1 for each additional hour.


Are there toll roads in Yonkers?


There are a lot of toll roads in New York. Whether you're staying in Yonkers or driving to NYC, you'll likely pay some fees along the way. If you're driving on Interstate 87, there's a fixed toll barrier in Yonkers. The New York State Thruway consists of nearly 570 miles of toll roads. You can reduce the toll fees you pay with an E-ZPass.


Are there gas stations and EV chargers in Yonkers?


No matter the type of vehicle you rent on Turo, Yonkers provides access to many EV chargers and gas stations. The most common gas station brands in the area are BP, Sunoco, and Royal Petroleum. If you're looking for EV charging stations, there are more than 140 ports in and around Yonkers, six of which are free. The main charging networks in town are Tesla Supercharger, ChargePoint, and EV Connect.


Do I need to rent a car in Yonkers?


Unless you only plan to stay in Downtown Yonkers, you need a car to navigate the entire town and discover everything it has to offer. Let's say you're planning a day of fun activities and want to travel from Tibbetts Brook Park to LEGOLAND Discovery Center Westchester. While walking this distance takes nearly two hours, you can drive there in just 10 minutes. Having a car also means never needing to wait for public transportation.
