The staff at Alamo were much less friendly compared to Hertz and Avis. My husband forgot to bring his own credit card, so we couldn't rent the X5 at all! They said it's a requirement in Victoria that the driver must have their own credit card, and my card wouldn't work either! And yet, when we went to Avis and Hertz, they said there's no issue as long as the credit card holder authorizes the driver and signs an authorization form! I had prepaid all the fees! When I called the rental company, they wouldn't refund my money or let me switch to another car rental company just after six minutes! We lost more than 4,000 RMB! Beware, everyone! Never prepay! Never use Alamo!!!
Very nice car. Hybrid was a great help with petrol consumption. It was a bit of a squeeze with all of our bags from airport, but good space for the rest of our trip with lesser baggage.

Booking was easy, and communication was excellent.
It was incredibly difficult to find the car hire department at the Melbourne Airport upon landing. There are hardly any signs pointing you in the correct direction. Once we found the correct area, which is actually across the street from the baggage terminal, the pick up was easy. The car we had this time was a hyundai i3, but it wasn't well maintained and the driver's side seat had stains on it and the fabric was well worn in the entire car. We couldn't use the GPS or cruise control due to needing an SD card. The car used a ton of gas and didn't feel like the upgrade was worth it compared to the Mitsubishi Mirage I had driven the week before in Tasmania, which was new and awesome on gas with no bells and whistles to be disappointed with. Overall, I wouldn't spring for the extra money on my next vehicle hire. Don't be surprised when you rent the vehicle to get asked to pre-purchase gas at a discount upon return and spring for road side assistance.
