Planning a trip to Johor Bahru from Singapore? Renting a car gives you the freedom to travel and explore beyond the usual shopping malls and cafés.

The cheapest car rental in Johor Bahru starts from around RM130 a day for a compact hatchback, with sedans from RM180 and larger categories priced by size and features.

Choosing the right type of car matters more than the car brand when you rent in Johor Bahru. The best pick depends on who is travelling and how far you are going.

A rental car turns a weekend in Johor Bahru from a few hours around City Square into a proper getaway. Instead of relying on buses or ride-hailing, you can explore destinations like Desaru, Kota Tinggi and LEGOLAND at your own pace, with everything packed into one car.

The Toyota Vios is the car most travellers choose when they hire across the border. It seats five, holds a family's luggage, uses little fuel on a long drive, and costs less per day than most cars in its class.
