Full Size/Premium at SJC
Hi all,

First time posting here, but I have been following this awesome site for awhile.

I plan on renting a full size or premium in a few weeks (mid June) for the weekend (Thurs- Sun). What kind of car can I expect for Avis and Budget? And how does the upgrading work? Is it Full size> premium> luxury?

Thanks!

First off welcome to FT.

SJC is has a lot of SUVs. Thursday they get a lot of returns to if you come in the morning/afternoon your selection will be limited.

Full Size - Hyundai Sonata, KIA Optima, Chevy Impala(old model), Nissan Altima, VW Passat.

Premium - Chrysler 300, Volvo v60/s60, Chevy Impala(new model), VW CC, Ford Taurus.

You can always upgrade to luxury, for a fee, you just have to ask.

I just checked the rates for luxury and for some reason they are cheaper than premium. What kind of cars do they have in that class?

Since you're in SJC why don't you call them or go look? Lots of Q50s in SJC.

Oh really? I wasn't aware that they had Q50s in stock. It would be great it I could get one. Unfortunately, I live quite far from the airport

Yep, my friend just rented one there. Like others have said though, SJC is extremely SUV heavy. Not sure why.
