How to make a website for a car rental

Someone renting a car wants to know which cars you have, the rate per day, how many kilometres are included, the deposit and which documents to bring, before they call. A small website with your fleet and clear terms answers that and sends them to your WhatsApp with their dates.

What people look for on a car rental website

The cars you rent, with model type, seats, fuel, manual or automatic, and a real photo
Rates per day and for longer rentals, for self-drive and with a driver if you offer both
Kilometres included per day and the charge for extra kilometres

Documents needed: driving licence, ID proof and address proof
Fuel rule, late return charge, and what happens if the car is damaged
Pickup from your office, or delivery to the station, airport or home and its charge

Our cars: Each car type with photo, seats, fuel, gearbox, luggage space, day rate and km included
Rental terms: Deposit, documents, fuel rule, extra km and late return charges, damage and cancellation terms, in plain words
Outstation and with driver: Day rates with a driver, driver allowance, night charges, and tolls and parking extra
Contact: Office address, pickup timings, delivery areas and charges, phone, WhatsApp and a Google Maps button

Sample words for your home page

Self-drive cars and cars with drivers in Panaji, Goa

Hatchbacks from ₹1,400 a day and 7-seaters from ₹2,800, with 250 km a day. Delivery to Thivim and Madgaon stations. Send your dates on WhatsApp.

Konkan Wheels has rented cars from its Panaji office since 2017. Every car is cleaned and checked before handover, we explain the deposit and fuel rule before you pay, and we pick up the phone if anything goes wrong on the road.

Use these as a starting point and write them in your own words: AppCub can rewrite them for you in the chat.

How to make it with AppCub, step by step

Decide the pages. Most car rental websites need these pages: Home, Our cars, Rental terms, Outstation and with driver, Contact.
Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, with your own name, address, prices and timings.
Check the plan. AppCub lists the pages and what goes on each. Ask for changes until it is right; seeing the plan is free.
Add your details and photos. Replace every sample with your real details, attach your own photos, and check each page on the phone and computer preview.
Publish and share. Choose your address (your-name.sites.appcub.ai), put the website live and share the link on WhatsApp.

Copy this request, change the details to match your car rental, and paste it into AppCub:

Self-drive: hatchback ₹1,400 a day, sedan ₹1,900, 7-seater ₹2,800, 250 km a day included, ₹10 per extra km. Deposit ₹5,000, returned at drop-off after checking the car.

Blue and yellow colours.

Tips for a car rental website

Photograph your own cars, outside and inside, with the boot open. Write 'or similar' if the exact car can change.
Put every charge in one place on the terms page: deposit, extra km, late return, fuel, cleaning and damage, so there are no arguments at drop-off.
Give rates for the season and for weekdays separately if they change around holidays and festivals.
For trips with a driver, say what the driver allowance covers and whether tolls, parking and state entry taxes are extra.
Tell people what to send on WhatsApp first: dates, pickup place, car type and whether they want a driver.
Add the office to Google Maps with a free Google Business Profile so people can find you for pickup.

Good to know

Visitors can't check which car is free, book it or pay the deposit on the website; they send their dates on WhatsApp or call. To keep a calendar of cars, handovers and deposits, a car rental app is the better fit.
The pages are written in English. You can talk to AppCub in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.

Questions

Can customers book a car on my rental website?

No. The website has no booking calendar or payment. Customers send their dates and car type on WhatsApp and you confirm which car is free.

Should the website show exact car models?

Show the car type and the models you usually give, and write 'or similar' if you might hand over a different car of the same size.

How should I explain the security deposit?

Say the amount, how it is paid, and when and how it comes back, such as at drop-off after checking the car. Put deductions for damage or fuel on the terms page.

Can I show both self-drive and with-driver rates?

Yes. Keep them on separate pages or sections so people don't mix up the km limits, driver allowance and night charges.

Can customers upload their driving licence on the website?

No, the website has no upload form. Customers send a photo of their licence and ID on WhatsApp before pickup.

Will tourists searching for car rentals find my site?

The pages are made so Google can read them, with your office address and timings in the format search engines use. Where they appear is Google's decision; a free Google Business Profile helps on Maps.
