KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Albuquerque

  • Driving in Albuquerque is the most convenient and effective way of getting to know the city, as all the major interest points are sprawled out. While you may prefer to walk in the Old Town area, a car is a must when exploring the rest of the city. Drive along the iconic Route 66 (or Central Ave), which cuts through the downtown area all the way to the university area. A car is also the perfect option for those looking to explore other destinations outside the city such as the Sandia Peak, which is located in the Sandia Mountains area, less than 20 miles from Albuquerque. New Mexico's capital, Santa Fe, is also a short hour’s ride away from Albuquerque.
  • All the big car hire agencies, including Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, and Hertz, can be found at Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ)'s Car hire Center. There is a free shuttle bus service between the airport terminal building and the Car Rental Center, with shuttles departing every 5 minutes or so from the lane outside the first level of the terminal building. The shuttle service is handicap accessible.
  • Fender benders happen quite often in Albuquerque, so watch out for reckless drivers. The weather gets pretty rough in the winter, which means you must be extra careful when driving during this season as accidents often happen due to strong winds, snow, or black ice that has formed. The roads are also quite dark at night, so extra caution is required when night driving.
  • Although traffic is manageable in certain parts of the city, roads are all usually fairly busy throughout Albuquerque during peak hours -- so avoid rush hour traffic both in the morning (between 6 and 10 a.m.) and afternoon (between 3 and 7 p.m.). The worst commutes are for drivers heading to Albuquerque/East Albuquerque in the morning, and exiting that area in the afternoon. Traffic heading from the Rio Rancho area to East Albuquerque also tends to get congested during peak hours.
  • Book your rental car in Albuquerque at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Full-size rental cars in Albuquerque are around 31% cheaper than other car types, on average

We got a mid-size SUV that got over 30 mpg highway. In retrospect we could have rented a sedan instead and saved a little on gas. Depending on your itinerary you may be driving a lot. In a week we drove nearly 1600 miles. You can drive drive up to 85 mph on some of the freeways. The police tolerate 10 mph over the limit.

I had a Mini Cooper, which uses premium gas only, but even paying premium gas, the fuel economy on those cars is great! I filled up my tank 3 times in over 1,200 miles driven. Highly recommend Mini's Countryman

We have used many car rental companies in Albuquerque. It has always been a good experience. But if you want the best customer service go see Christina at Budget on University Blvd.

Driving in Albuquerque is fine. No parking problems even in high tourist areas like Old Town. Note that we were there in the off season. Gas prices were lower than in Gallup.

This location is a train wreck. Terrible customer service. The Avis agent was watching a football game on his phone, paying more attention to that rather than getting our rental app verified. NEVER AGAIN WITH AVIS AND LIKELY NOT EVEN KAYAK.

Long line at ACE ™️ car rental desk in Albuquerque, New Mexico. On average, there was ONE customer service representative at the desk assisting customers and if we were lucky, the second would help. The vehicle was not in the car located on the damage/receipt that would assist us in finding the car. A few clicks of the door lock, and the car was a couple spots over. I had to take extensive pictures ov dings and scratches because none was noticed on the receipt. (This is not the stress I was hoping for to start out my trip)… The trunk had rocks and small wood pieces where you would normally place luggage… The last time my wife used Ace, she was stranded and the vehicle wouldn’t go into gear. After a couple days they finally replaced it with no apology or anything… she missed the activity she was supposed too arrive for and W/O ANY sorry sir compensatory actions from ACE. It’s almost your FORCED to used a couple of companies that at there because of a lack of staff at the ABQ rental complex.

Very slow service during pickup. Only one person working the counter. One person had to come back to the counter twice, once because change oil light was on in his car and then again when he was given a different car and charged more for an upgrade. Return went smoothly for us however.

The car was fine. The hidden fees were and incorrect charges were frustrating. Probably won't rent from them again. They admitted they made a mistake but won't take any action to correct the credit card charges. I prepaid for gas to be able to bring the car back empty and still over charged me by $70. There were about half a dozen hidden fees tacked onto the invoice that literally added hundreds of dollars to the cost of the rental. Definitely recommend finding a different car rental company that is more transparent up front in regards to the total cost of the rental

First off my flight landed at 11:20 AM on Saturday. I called the location that was my reservation. I told him I would be six minutes away. They said they would wait for me but keep in mind they close at 12 I took a Uber to get there I go to location come to find out 1145 they completely locked their doors. I tried calling them six times and they completely ignore me Crying and very upset since I needed this truck to move my family member I called the reservation hotline and they transfer me to another location. That’s an hour away damaged. My reservation and plans reserve resort to me to pay extra day rental. I will not be using budget anymore. I’m very unhappy with the customer service they have given me.

they gave me a toyota corolla cross instead of a rav4. At first I was disappointed, but it turned out to be great. Perfect for my trip. Line to get the car was long and it took 30-40 minutes because there were only two agents. car was a little dirty on the exterior. Kind of looked like water spots, but was a bit sticky. easy return, but could be more clear that you return it to the Hertz area.

We booked thrifty via a third party so we could pay in advance and when we arrived there were so many people there to pick up a car that we were put on a wait list, only to find out they ended up running out of cars (lucky we had gone to a different place to see if we could get one, although we paid over double what the original rental from Thrifty was meant to be). The employees at Thrifty Albuquerque were apologetic and tried to help, but said there was nothing they could do because the third party companies reserve cars without knowing the amount of inventory available. Whether this is a Thrifty problem, or a problem with the rental car business (esp 3rd party) overall, I’m not sure but it shouldn’t be this way and I’ve never had this problem before, so there should be some oversight for car reservations - especially those that have been prepaid as we are now having to fight with the third party (Qeek) to get our money back.

the only major issue was that one of the tires of the car was severely underpressurized, and I noticed this several hours into my trip - had I not taken care of it myself, the trip could have been held up by a flat or even worse an accident could have occurred.

Staff doesn't need to upsell so hard! The size I reserved was fine. I didn't need a bigger car!

Hertz lied, we went all the way to the airport to pick up our confirmed rental and they would not honor the confirmation! They told us that even though we made a reservation and had a confirmation number they had rented our car to someone else so they were out of cars.

It was easy to pick up and return the car and it was clean and comfortable. I didn’t realize the Albuquerque location I selected wasn’t at the airport car rental hub. And I had to get an Uber to get there, a minor inconvenience.

Pros:

New Mexico was short on rental cars during Memorial Day weekend and I was a bit nervous when we had to rent from Budget because their reviews were the lowest. However, this was my best car rental experience by far. The customer service was amazing, the facility is in close proximity to the airport, the return process was a breeze. By far, this was one of my best rental experiences.

Pros:

The whole operation was very understaffed but the people I dealt with, particularly a young man in ABQ, were very helpful and polite. The drop-off was the same, the lot at DEN was closed, which made me nervous about missing my flight. There was no indication anywhere that I was to go to the Avis lot for drop-off. Again, nobody to explain anything but when the woman showed up, she was polite and helpful in a difficult situation for her.

The rental car shuttle service to and from the airport is quick and convenient. The staff at the Alamo desk was helpful and efficient. The entrance to the rental car return was a little confusing but we figured it out on the second pass. Our car was clean and performed well. We had a great experience renting from Alamo.

They charged me over $200 for gas, when I returned the car fully fueled. In corresponding with them they said they would refund some of the money. I haven't seen a cent!

Dennis, Dec 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

Car was clean and drop off easy.

Cons:

They push the fuel option without explaining that you are charged for a full tank of gas regardless of what's in the car when you return, plus it appear that you are then charged taxes on this. Yes, the details are in the contract, but they carefully avoid explaining it. Never do that again. Also, they are less than candid about the insurance option, which probably leads most people to accept the "basic" plan not realizing that it adds dramatically to the cost. I believe that they do these things intentionally and many people end up paying much more than they anticipated. I probably won't use this company again.

Loved the staff in the morning when we ultimately picked up our car!

Cons:

When we arrived approximately 3 minutes before closing time, with a reservation, the desk was closed. We were forced to hire an Uber that night and again in the morning to return and get our car. Two other parties also arrived when we did.

During pickup costs were added that did not appear in the original reservation. After refusing a higher cost upgrade, we were given a "free" BMW SUV instead of the domestic SUV we thought we were getting. This car had no drivers manual and was a mystery for many of its functions. It also handled poorly on New Mexico's I-40.

I made a reservation for 10pm and even included my flight number when booking. I showed up between 10:00-10:05pm to find that the Sixt counter had closed for the evening and wouldn’t reopen until 7am the next morning. (Sixt customers were not being redirected to another counter/location as is sometimes the case when arriving “after hours” in other cities.) I don’t have rideshare apps (that’s why I booked a rental car!), so my friend at home had to remotely call me an Uber to my hotel, and another back to the rental car center in the morning. Kayak should never have allowed me to make a reservation for 10pm if they close AT 10pm, but Sixt should’ve contacted me ahead of arrival to alert me of the time discrepancy, or at least stayed a few minutes late to accommodate my reservation. I will NEVER book with Sixt again.
