Large cars such as trucks and SUVs are some of the most popular cars in Kansas City and visitors may want to keep that in mind when choosing a hire vehicle. However, smaller vehicles are also very popular, so your choice of vehicle is truly your own prerogative. Finding parking is also a non-issue for even the largest of vehicles as the city’s parking spaces are large and plentiful.
Kansas City sees a range of speed limits from 30 mph to 55 mph on its roads, with speed limits largely determined by the size of the road and whether or not it is in a residential area. Outside of the city, speed limits on highways and interstates are usually 70 mph with the occasional increase to 75 mph.
If you are in the central downtown area, parking garages are probably the most convenient option. The parking garages are plentiful and easy to find all over the city and are often quite cheap as well. If you are in the peripheral areas though, you may find streetside parking to be more convenient, as spots are readily available there.
The average price of fuel in Kansas City is $5.91 per litre over the past 30 days. Filling up a tank of fuel costs between $71 and $94, depending on the car size.
Full-size (Chevrolet Tahoe or similar) is the most frequently booked car hire type in Kansas City.
Take a look at our extensive car hire location map to find the best car hire deals near you.

Pros:
Friendly service at the ick-up location; VERY pleased that when I called the 1-800 number to modify my reservation, I actually talked to a real person in under 5 minutes. Overall, Alamo has provided the best rental service that I have experienced in a long time. Will definitely use them again.Cons:
The Kansas City location required additional photo IDs (fraud prevention). This didn't affect me, but others may need to be aware of the requirement (which was not advertised in advance).6.8 Okay
Oct 2020
Cons:
Alamo was closed when we arrived in Kansas City. The rental car company to the right next counter over had to handle the paperwork. I had already booked and paid online for an easy pick up. They made us jump through hoops while my 90 year old parents had to wait for us.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
Everything!! The car was clean, customer service was very clear and nice to work with during the process.Cons:
Me having a mobile app to track my reservation better. I had to search through emails and track down information. This is a problem for me not with the service. Alamo was amazing and I will definitely rent from them again. Thank you4.4 Mediocre

Pros:
The staff was nice, but there were not enough so wait times were longCons:
I got a car that was dirty (inside and out) and that WAS NOT FULL OF GAS, but was down almost a quarter tank. When I pointed this out, I just got a shrug. Bet if I returned it down a quarter tank the reaction would be different10.0 Wonderful
Aug 2020
Cons:
They let me close any vehicle in the line so i chose a mini van. It was perfect for my needs, clean and new. Return was super quick at the MCI Airport. Never had to wait at all for the shuttle bus. Shuttle was about 5 min from the airport.One location in Kansas City

Aug 2020
Cons:
Travelers are in a hurry, when we do a Phone SEARCH, MCI rental cars, we actually want to PICKUP at MIC airport. Travelers don't know what street address or zip code is at the downtown location. Then there's no way to call you, you were closed. I better NOT had been charged anything.7.6 Good
Aug 2020
Pros:
The pickup process was very quick. Staff was friendly and helpful. Price was considerably less to pick up at the downtown location vs the airport- $200 less!Cons:
The downtown location didn't have a way to return the rental to them late Saturday or Sunday. I had to pay extra to take it to the airport, less than 1-2 day rental, but still a drag.4.4 Mediocre
Aug 2020
Pros:
drop off was easyCons:
the car was dirty, the pick up attendant was short with me, the car was on empty and I had to repeatedly ask him to wipe off spit luggies from the inside of the car, he was hot and in a hurry, very transactional not the proffessionalism I am used to with you guys or other rental companies2.0 Poor
Aug 2019
Pros:
Nothing! Terrible customer service!!Cons:
They booked me a time after they close for the day so I couldn’t pick up my car. I called the next morning when they opened but they had given my car away the day before. They wouldn’t honor my booking. They charged me double. They would’t “pick us up” (their slogan). Very frustrating!!!One location in Kansas City

Cons:
Showed up after a 30 minute delayed flight, no one at the counter to assist. Actually have a clerk at the counter that can assist during later hours. Or, if you're going to partner with another rental agency and defer your customers to their desk, make sure that desk is staffed. Avis did and was able to match your rate and earn my future business.2.0 Poor

Pros:

May 2021
Pros:
The counter was closed prior to the scheduled closing time. We were unable to pick up our rental under this reservation and had to check nearby counters that were still open to try to find an available rental. The entire fiasco ended up costing us more than double the original reservation. How will we receive compensation for the unacceptable incompetence?Cons:
You could have remained open until your scheduled closing time or at least until our scheduled pickup. We called ahead once the plane was on the ground and no one ever picked up despite it being 15 minutes prior to our reservation.6.0 Okay
Apr 2021
Cons:
Our flight was delayed, the rental office was closed at the airport when we arrived at 1205am. No options but to wait there till 7am to get car. Spent $185 for a cab and hotel that wasn't in our travel plans or budget. No help or discount from budget rental!!!2 locations in Kansas City
