Optional Extras

GPS

When you book online, you may be able to add a GPS. After you select a car, the vehicle details page shows whether you can request one. If the option isn't there, GPS units may be sold out or not offered at that location for that car. A GPS may also not be available on one-way hires, where you return the car to a different location.

Don't choose a car because the pictured model has a built-in GPS. Every car is shown as "or similar", and you are booking a category, not a particular model. See what "or similar" means.

Additional Drivers

Add an additional driver at the counter when you collect the car. The additional driver must be there at pick-up, show their own licence and sign the rental agreement. Rental companies generally apply the same licence requirements as for the main driver. Our driver's licence guide explains the requirements and fees.

Child Seats

When you book online, you can add a child seat after you select a car. On the vehicle details page, find the "Child Seats & Equipment" section and choose the seat that suits your child. Options may include:

• a booster seat
• a forward-facing child seat
• a rear-facing child seat

Baby capsules are generally not available from rental companies. Each rental company sets its own seat charges and conditions.

Child restraint rules

Child restraint laws are set by each state and territory, and the right seat depends on your child's age and size. Check the rules for each state you will drive in before you choose a seat. Our road rules guide links to each state's official road rules.
