What is a good price for an Intermediate car at Stuttgart Airport?

For November 2026, budget $56 a day at Stuttgart Airport for an Intermediate, such as a Nissan Qashqai, booked around a month before your trip, as waiting until the last 2 weeks gives the same price. A Compact, such as a Volkswagen Golf, averages $52 a day, while an Economy, such as an Opel Corsa, averages $46 at the same lead time. Within the last 2 weeks, a Compact car drops to $48 and an Economy car to $38. Use the price checker to compare your quote with prices for your exact dates.

02

Should I book Stuttgart Airport car hire now or wait until 2 weeks before?

At Stuttgart Airport, booking timing changes prices by less than 13%, and an Intermediate car averages $56 a day for November 2026 both around a month before your trip and within the last 2 weeks. Book when your plans are firm rather than waiting for the November 2026 price to drop. Across the 395 airports we track car hire prices for, 65% of our customers book within a month of pickup, so you need not treat booking months ahead as the norm.

03

Which company is cheapest at Stuttgart Airport, and what do I give up?

Flex to Go is cheapest at Stuttgart Airport for an Intermediate car, averaging $54 a day over the last 12 months from 827 prices, but you need a credit card and a $1,016 deposit. Flex to Go has an airport desk, a 14-minute wait on average and a review score of 66/100. Budget averages $56 a day for an Intermediate car over the last 12 months, just $2 more a day. If you value a quicker pickup and less money held on your card, Budget has a 9-minute wait, a $226 deposit, accepts debit cards and scores 83/100.

The cheapest company can cost you a longer queue or a bigger deposit, so check the review score and desk wait beside each car in the results before you book.

Which Stuttgart Airport company has the best reviews and a short desk wait?

If you prioritise reviews, choose Flizzr at Stuttgart Airport: it scores 89/100 from 46 reviews and has a 9-minute desk wait.

Sixt also has a 9-minute wait but does not yet have enough reviews for a score.

Review scores are CarTrawler customers' own, from the last five months; the score and the desk wait sit beside each car in the results.

What should I watch out for when collecting a car at Stuttgart Airport?

At Stuttgart Airport, check desk waits and card requirements before choosing the lowest price, because either can hold up your weekday-morning pickup.

Of the 11 counters, 6 require a credit card, and Enterprise accepts debit cards for some cars only.

Which car should I choose at Stuttgart Airport for people and luggage?

At Stuttgart Airport, choose an Intermediate such as a Nissan Qashqai for 4 people with 4 bags, at $56 a day in November 2026 around a month before your trip; it seats 5.
