What types of cars can I rent in South Shore?
Reasonably priced, a breeze to handle and with excellent mileage, it's no coincidence that compact cars are the most sought-after rental type in South Shore. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily navigate traffic. A compact is ideal for city getaways or shorter road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!
