How old do you have to be to rent a car in Chennai?
If you're 18 and above, you can rent a car in Chennai. Take into account that most rental suppliers will charge young drivers an additional fee, which is meant to cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young motorists often aren't permitted to rent larger vehicles and luxury cars. Browse the terms and conditions before you book so there are no hassles when it's time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Chennai?
Be prepared to present your driver's licence and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Prior to pickup, check with your chosen rental company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Chennai?
In Chennai and across India, motorists drive on the left. This can be daunting enough, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the other side to what you're used to. To stay safe, take things slow to begin with and allow yourself ample time to get to your next stop.

Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. Surcharges may apply if you're between 21 and 24 years of age.
