For small groups, choose an Economy car like a Volkswagen Polo at Fuerteventura Airport, which costs £20 a day booked a month ahead for October 2026. It seats 5 passengers but holds only 2 bags, so a full party means luggage on laps; stepping up to a Compact like the Volkswagen T-Cross gives you 3 bags for £22 a day. Only 24% of cars offered are automatic, and automatics cost £2 more a day across the year, so reserve early if you cannot drive a manual. Hybrids are 11% of cars offered while electric cars are absent, so you will primarily drive petrol or diesel.
