Miami hurricane season runs June 1 – November 30, with the highest risk from mid-August through October. Direct hits on Miami are uncommon, but summer afternoon thunderstorms are frequent. If you travel then, consider travel insurance and a flexible booking — and an electric car rental in Miami with strong A/C makes hot, stormy days far more comfortable.
One thing every season has in common: you'll want your own wheels.
Miami's highlights — South Beach, Wynwood, the Everglades, and the Florida Keys — are spread far apart, and public transit only covers a small slice of the city. Rideshare adds up fast over a multi-day trip, and airport rental counters mean long lines after a long flight. Most visitors find having a car from day one makes the whole trip easier.
A fully charged Tesla rental in Miami or SUV rental in Miami delivered straight to your hotel by Amped Auto Rentals means strong A/C in summer, easy Everglades and Keys day trips, and zero airport-counter hassle. Free car rental delivery in Miami on rentals of 7+ days.
