If you need to rent a car in the US, be prepared to to pay more. The average price to rent a standard car for one week has risen by 73% to USD 346 during the past 12 months according to an analysis from Abrams Consulting. Given the current economic crisis and falling flight, hotel and cruise prices, it's difficult to understand why car prices are increasing.

According to Abrams Consulting, the main reason is that car rental firms have cut back in the number of cars available for rental. Many of the car rental companies have at sold out of their fleet and stopped purchasing new cars, so they fact have fewer cars than they actually need, despite a 15% fall in rentals. The average age of a US rental car is today 11 months, up from 9 months a year ago.
