While many car classes (like compact and economy) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Buenos Aires?
Most rental companies will require two things — a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd prefer to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.

Where can I find a Buenos Aires car rental if I am younger than 25?

If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, keep in mind that additional costs may apply.
