The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Monterrey borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Monterrey might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Monterrey!
Rental process FAQ
On loaded highways, local drivers rarely pay attention to road markings and can make quite dangerous maneuvers. Taxi drivers and drivers of buses, loaded with passengers, are especially dangerous.
Drivers never use light signals on roads, the only exceptions are situations when one of the levers is touched accidentally. If a car that moves in front of your car has turned on a left turn signal, it means that it gives way to cars following it.
Despite the fact that traffic on local roads is very chaotic and busy, drivers are distinguished by poised and calm temperament. They will always wait for a slow driver to finish his maneuver and will even politely give way to a car that is about to turn on a busy road.
