The main difference between long-term and short-term rental lies in the duration and specific needs of the customer. Short-term rental is generally intended for shorter periods, such as a few days or weeks, ideal for those who need a vehicle for trips or temporary needs. In contrast, long-term rental spans longer periods, often from months to several years, offering advantageous rates, maintenance included, and greater flexibility to meet long-term needs, whether personal or business-related.
