How the engines described Hertz when they named it, word for word, from the October 2026 answers.
For a one-way road trip around Australia, I’d start with Hertz or Avis, with Europcar as another strong option
Hertz explicitly supports one-way rentals across its Australian network, with 200+ locations, and offers one-way options for cars, SUVs, minibuses and 4WDs.
Operating under the same parent umbrella, they boast one of the largest footprints across regional and metro Australia.
