Getting around Aarhus using public means is quite possible, given that the city is served by Letbanen light rail trains and city buses. Although these transportation means are cheap, you may find moving from one destination to another using one tiring. For instance, if the two destinations aren’t linked directly, you will have to switch trains/buses and wait for fellow passengers to alight and board at the stops you’ll encounter. In comparison, with a rental car from one of the reliable car rentals in Aarhus, you can travel from one destination to another without encountering stops or switching vehicles. You can also quickly get to attractions in towns 33 miles away, like Grena, Juelsminde, Stouby, and Vibor, in an hour.
At Aarhus Airport (AAR), you can easily rent a car. This air transit hub features locations for reliable Aarhus car rentals like Hertz, Sixt, Europcar, Budget, Enterprise, National, Alamo, and Avis. You won’t need any ground transportation to get to the counters for the agencies, given that the counters are less than 50 meters to the right of the Arrival Hall. The pickup lot for the vehicles is a short walk from the counters.
To achieve a smooth experience when driving in Aarhus, be careful and aware of how cyclists move around. Cyclists are everywhere. You should also note that Aarhus has a low emission zone. If you intend to drive in this zone, ensure you ask for a sticker from your agency showing your vehicle meets the required standards. Also, note that most inner streets are pedestrian streets.
Like most other cities with significant populations, Aarhus experiences heavy traffic during rush hours. In this city, the morning rush hour usually lasts from 7:00 am to 9:30 am, while the afternoon wave usually runs from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. The roads in Midtbyen, Aarhus’ city center, and the E45 Motorway, which connects Aarhus and Skanderborg, are the most affected. Thus, during rush hour periods, avoid them at all costs.
Small rental cars in Aarhus are around 30% cheaper than other car types, on average

It is SO hard to recharge the car in Aarhus for the return as there is a severe lack of ChaDemo charging stations in the city. I tried for 3-4 hours to find a fast charger in the city but there were none available and I had to return the car with less than 50% charge. I understand that when hiring a petrol car the fuel can be filled up easily before returning but when there are only slow chargers available for EVs in the city. This makes it hard to return the car charges and then there are extra fees for the car being undercharged.
