Renting a car in Madrid: What documents do I need?

There are only a few documents you need to rent a vehicle in the Spanish capital:

Credit card
Reservation voucher
Driver’s license
Passport.

Traffic Rules

To navigate local streets like a local, only a few basic habits are needed. When using car hire in Madrid, keeping these regulations in mind ensures a smooth and stress-free driving experience:

Always drive on the right-hand side.
Do not use your phone while the engine is on (even when stopped at a red light).
Make sure all occupants fasten their seatbelts before starting the journey.
Observe the 30 km/h speed limit on most urban streets to protect pedestrians.
By 2026, Spain will be moving towards a stricter, near-zero blood alcohol limit of 0.2 g/l (grams per liter) for all drivers.

Parking

If you play your cards right, you can snag a spot in a Zona Azul for around €1.20 to €2.50 per hour, giving you a perfect base for a few hours of city wandering.

Look for the blue stripes to claim a space for up to four hours, just make sure to feed the digital meter or use an app like Telpark to stay legal.

Gas Stations

Prices for Sin Plomo 95 (unleaded) usually hover around €1.60 to €1.80 per liter.

Aim for the “Low Cost” labels like Plenoil or Petroprix on the outskirts of the city to save nearly 20 cents per liter compared to the big highway brands.

Toll Roads

Budget for the “R-3” or “R-5” radial routes during rush hour, which typically cost between €3 and €10 depending on how far you’re escaping from the city center.

Switch to the “A” routes (Autovías) if you have time to spare, as these parallel paths are completely free of charge.
