Like other car rental companies Budget offers also a Mystery Car. Someone knows which vehicle class is guaranteed when booking the Mystery Car from Budget?

I`m used to book on the Sixt Deal Page. I recently found the Budget Myster Car Dealpage.
Is it comparable to the Sixt one?

Thanks for the Budget Mystery Car Dealpage

For the Budget mystery Car rental rates are on the lower end. Minimum you get Compact class or higher. It always depend on availability of cars. Over weekends the chance to get an upper class car are always much higher.

My opinion is to book on the Sixt Deal page as the cars are much newer and the rental rates offer more value for the money. My opinion only.

Just checked out offers from Budget at SFO airport for tomorrow. Surprising to see that the Mystery Car is the cheapest option Budget actually offer. ;) It`s the identical rental rate as @Cowling found. :)

This is correct @ACDC . But don`t forget $ 29.31 for taxes and fees. ;)

Anyway a very low rental rate for the Mystery Car from Budget. For comparison reasons an example at a non-airport station must be taken as there are much lower service fees applied.

Actually I don`t find any offer at a downtown location nearby for a Mystery Car. Obviously these offers are presently available only at airports. Probably this is due to the virus situation. :?: :!:

The rental rates for the Budget Mystery Car are always rather low. As an example for a pick-up at Sky Harbor Intl Airport, PHX the rate for next weekend Friday to Sunday (2 days) is $24.00 only. With fees and taxes the total 2 day price is $52.31. A great deal from my point of view.

My feeling is that for the category Mystery Car Budget offers the cheapest rental rate on the market.

Other car rental companies presently don`t offer any Mystery Car due to the Covid19 situation. Budget offer their Mystery Car like at the DTW airport. The rental rate is very low. I`ve just booked it.
