My bad. I double checked, and it was a Honda Accord, not a Corolla. It was a nice enough little car, just surprised me that it is considered a Premium.

My reservation was messed up, and the girl who was helping me was new. She printed my paperwork in German. I just wanted to get the heck away from her at that point, so I just kept the car.

I talked to a friend that has been in the rental business for years, and he told me that car classes are based on cost, not size or make, which makes sense. Hondas are spendy.
