Choumacars rents 8 automatic models in Marrakech: Hyundai Grand i10, Renault Clio 5, Hyundai Accent, Audi A3, Renault Arkana, Hyundai Tucson, Volkswagen Touareg and Range Rover Sport. All have 5 seats. Only the Dacia Logan, and one version of the Clio 5, have a manual gearbox. Your WhatsApp request carries the model and the gearbox, and we reply in writing. An automatic can be waiting at Menara when you land, at our Annajam office or outside where you stay: a hotel in Hivernage, a flat in Gueliz, a villa in the Palmeraie or the Medina gate closest to your riad. Insurance is included and there is no mileage cap. You need to be 22 and to have held a standard licence for at least 2 years: no special licence is required to drive without a clutch pedal. At handover, we show you the gear selector of your model.
Our 8 models for automatic car hire in Marrakech
Automatic city cars
The Hyundai Grand i10 and the Renault Clio 5 are the easiest to park in the streets of Gueliz and around the Medina. They suit a couple or a small group driving mostly in town.
Saloon and premium compact
The Hyundai Accent is a 4-door saloon with a separate boot, comfortable on the motorway to Casablanca or Agadir. The Audi A3 brings a premium finish in a compact size.
Automatic SUVs
The Renault Arkana and the Hyundai Tucson give you a higher driving position and more room for luggage, useful for the Ourika valley or Essaouira.
Premium automatic SUVs
The Volkswagen Touareg and the Range Rover Sport suit a high-end stay, an event or the road over the Tizi n'Tichka. Both have all-wheel drive.
Driving an automatic in Marrakech traffic
Traffic in Marrakech needs your full attention: scooters slipping between cars, horse-drawn carriages near the Koutoubia, pedestrians crossing away from the zebra crossings, and a long run of roundabouts on Avenue Mohammed VI and Boulevard Abdelkrim El Khattabi. With an automatic, there is no clutch to work at every stop, so you can keep your eyes on the road. At rush hour, on Avenue Mohammed V in Gueliz or around Bab Doukkala, the difference shows quickly. If you drive an automatic at home, as most American drivers do, you will feel at ease straight away. On the mountain road to Ouarzazate, an automatic copes well with the climbs; on the long descents from the pass, use the manual mode or engine braking to spare the brakes.
Automatics and Menara airport
Many travellers choose an automatic to leave the airport calmly after a flight, especially at night. Our 8 automatic models are available for pick-up at Menara airport, at any hour. Add your flight number to your WhatsApp message and the car is ready when you land.

First time in an automatic?
Four positions are all you need: P to park, R to reverse, N for neutral, D to drive. Your left foot rests, your right foot moves between the accelerator and the brake. To pull away, keep your foot on the brake and select D. At handover, we show you the controls of your model before you leave.

Questions about renting an automatic car
Does an automatic change the rental conditions?
No. At Choumacars, the terms are the same with an automatic gearbox: minimum age 22, a licence held for 2 years, insurance included and no mileage cap. Only the model changes, from the Grand i10 to the Range Rover Sport. Send your dates and the car you want on WhatsApp; the reply comes in writing, with the handover time and place.
Is it easy to drive an automatic in Marrakech?
Yes, it is even easier than a manual in Marrakech traffic, with its roundabouts, scooters and frequent stops. There is no clutch and no gears to manage. At Choumacars, we show you the controls at handover, and a standard licence held for 2 years is enough to drive an automatic.
Which automatic cars does Choumacars offer?
Choumacars offers 8 automatic models: Hyundai Grand i10, Renault Clio 5, Hyundai Accent, Audi A3, Renault Arkana, Hyundai Tucson, Volkswagen Touareg and Range Rover Sport. All have 5 seats. The Dacia Logan and one version of the Clio 5 are manual, for those who prefer. Each car page in our catalogue shows the gearbox.
Can I pick up an automatic car at the airport at night?
Yes. Choumacars automatics can be collected at Menara at any hour, including after midnight. Note the model and your flight number in your request. At handover, we show you the controls of the automatic gearbox, and you drive straight to your hotel or riad.

Is an automatic suitable for the Atlas roads?
Yes. On the road over the Tizi n'Tichka or up to Imlil, an automatic handles the climbs well. On the way down, switch to manual mode or use engine braking so the brakes do not overheat. With Choumacars, mileage is unlimited: you can link Marrakech, the Atlas and Ouarzazate in the same car.
