Ankara Car Rental Guide: Where To Pick Up And What To Know
Renting a car in Ankara is a convenient way to reach business districts, nearby towns, and day-trip destinations at your own pace. Most travelers choose either Esenboğa Airport (ESB) for fast, after-landing pickup and longer operating hours, or downtown locations for easier access if you are staying centrally. Expect manual transmissions to be common, automatic cars to cost more, and a deposit to be held on a credit card. Turkey uses the HGS electronic toll system on many highways and bridges, so confirm whether your rental includes a toll tag and how charges are billed. Insurance terminology varies by company—ask what is included (CDW/LDW, theft protection) and what the deductible is, and consider glass/tire coverage if you plan longer drives. To avoid surprise costs, confirm the fuel policy ("full-to-full" is typically best), the extra driver fee, young driver rules, cross-border restrictions, after-hours fees, and whether local taxes/airport surcharges are already included in the quote.

Ankara Esenboğa Airport (ESB) Car Rental Center
Most convenient for arrivals and early departures. Follow signs for “Car Rental / Rent A Car” after baggage claim; counters are typically in/near the arrivals area, and vehicles are picked up in the adjacent parking garages or a designated rental lot. Pros: widest selection, longer hours, easy highway access. Cons: airport surcharge may apply, weekend demand can raise prices.
Kızılay (City Center)
Central pickup near transit, offices, and hotels. Pros: easy to reach without a car, good for travelers already in town. Cons: heavier traffic, limited parking, and shorter opening hours than the airport.
Çankaya
Popular for embassies, business areas, and upscale neighborhoods. Pros: convenient for business stays and residential hotels. Cons: pickup/return may require street parking and can be slower during peak hours.

Why Pick Up At Ankara ESB Airport

Airport rentals are ideal if you want to start driving immediately after landing. ESB typically offers more vehicle classes (including larger SUVs and automatics), longer operating hours, and simpler logistics for early or late flights. It’s also faster to reach highways for trips outside Ankara, though airport fees can make the total price slightly higher.

Ankara Car Rental Guide

Essential driving tips and FAQ for renting and driving in Ankara, Turkey

Can I drive in Turkey with my US license, or do I need an International Driving Permit?
Yes, you can drive in Turkey with your US license, but you'll need an International Driving Permit (IDP) as a translation document. Turkish authorities require the IDP alongside your original US license. The IDP is valid for 1 year and can be obtained from AAA in the US before departure. Without it, you risk fines of 100-200 TRY if stopped by police.
How much is the young driver surcharge for renting a car in Ankara?
Most rental companies in Turkey charge a young driver surcharge for drivers under 25, typically ranging from 50-100 TRY per day (about $3-6 USD). Drivers under 21 are often excluded from renting altogether at many agencies. If you're 21-24, budget an extra 1,500-3,000 TRY for a week-long rental for this surcharge alone.
Do I need snow chains to drive in Ankara during winter?
Yes, strongly recommended. Ankara winters (December-February) see temperatures drop to -10°C to -15°C with regular snowfall. While main highways are generally plowed, secondary roads and rural routes can be icy. Snow chains cost 200-400 TRY to purchase locally, and some rental companies include them—confirm when booking. Winter tires add 300-500 TRY to your rental but are worthwhile for December-February trips.
How do I pay for highway tolls in Turkey? Are electronic tags worth it?
Turkey has a toll system on most motorways (Otoyol). You can pay with cash or credit card at toll booths, or use an electronic device (OGS or KGS) for faster passage. If you plan to drive more than 200km on highways, renting an electronic tag (typically 50-100 TRY plus deposit) is worth it—it saves time and sometimes offers small discounts. Toll costs average 1-3 TRY per 100km depending on vehicle class.
What type of fuel do cars in Turkey use, and should I return the car full or empty?
Most rental cars in Turkey run on diesel (dizel) or unleaded gasoline (benzin). Check your rental agreement carefully—mixing fuel types causes serious engine damage and is not covered by insurance. The 'full-to-full' policy is standard: you receive the car with a full tank and must return it full to avoid refueling charges at 1.5-2x pump rates. Diesel costs around 25-30 TRY per liter, gasoline around 30-35 TRY per liter.
