About Thrifty: 8.0 /10
Great but we were not told that we would not get KIA Seltos. Instead we were given a Nissan Qashqai. There was a KIA Seltos parked right next to the nissan we got. That’s pretty disappointing. Would be great if we were told before we were given the car. We felt like we were downgraded since we got an older car (2022) and the KIA Seltos we saw parking next to us was a newer (2025) car.

Picked up the car at the airport, very convenient. The vehicle was new, exactly what we booked, with plenty of backup cars available, so no need to substitute with other models.

The car’s alignment was bad and we realised it on the 2nd day itself. I called to see if we could change the car. And they told me to call again the next day and the next day. For 3 days straight I called but had to explain the situation to 3 different people and there was no record of me putting the initial request. We went there on the 4th day only to realize we could have easily exchange it if we’ve brought the car in immediately and request for a technical check. This was not mentioned to me from the 1st-3rd call.

About Thrifty: 9.7 /10
Great experience from start to finish. Car was not as clean as a whistle though, we found a juice bottle (half filled), beer cap and a corn chip inside the car, other than that the whole experience was great.
