What is a Compact Car?

Compact cars are sedans and are a little bigger than our economy models. Most compact sedans have a 4-cylinder engine and offer ease of handling because of their smaller size. Choose a compact car rental if you’re traveling to a busy city with limited parking or if you’re traveling alone and don’t want to pay for unused space. A compact car is also a great option for those looking for a car rental with great gas mileage. Keep reading to learn more about the benefits of a compact car rental from Avis.
