Chinese New Year is coming up and as much as that means ang baos and good food, it also means that with all the visiting everyone is doing, the MRT is going to be packed. Especially for those travelling in larger groups and visiting multiple houses across the island, renting a car would make things much more convenient.
Rather than squeezing with the masses or spending all your red packet money on cab fare, here are some car rental companies in Singapore that offer the lowest rates to help make CNY visiting a little easier.
PS you can also check Automo out if you’re looking for rental cars from $52/day!
