A car for uni.
Affordable weekly hire, international licences accepted, the same price at 21 as at 40. Hire for a semester and return when you're done.
Why international students choose Savvy.
International licences accepted.
We accept valid international licences in English. If your licence isn't in English, bring an official translation or an International Driving Permit (IDP).
No young driver surcharge.
If you're 21 or over, you pay the standard rate. No age penalties, unlike big rental companies that charge $15-30/day extra for under 25s.
Hire for a semester, return when done.
No fixed contracts. Pay weekly, extend as long as you need, and return the car when your semester ends or you head home. Simple.
Everything included.
Insurance, 24/7 RACV roadside assistance, servicing and 500 km a week, all inside the weekly rate. The figure you budget on is the figure you pay.
How students use their hire car.
Getting to campus.
Some campuses are tricky to reach by public transport, especially for early or late classes. A car cuts your commute and gives you flexibility.
Part-time work.
Juggling uni and work across Melbourne? A car lets you get between campus, work, and home without relying on timetables.
Exploring Victoria.
Great Ocean Road, Phillip Island, the Grampians, there's so much to see outside Melbourne, and a car is the best way to do it.
Grocery runs and daily life.
Especially if you're in the suburbs, having a car makes grocery shopping, errands, and everyday life much easier.
