What the 2024 Lotus Emira is for in Jacksonville

Two seats, a weekend bag and a road: that is the 2024 Lotus Emira in Jacksonville. It is the car for the A1A drive from Jacksonville Beach through Ponte Vedra to St. Augustine, for the Saturday that is about the drive and not the destination, and for the prom, graduation or birthday that deserves a photograph the family keeps.

The Emira is the driver's car: the one for the quiet morning on A1A south of Ponte Vedra, Highway 13 along the St. Johns, and the ferry at Mayport for the loop to Amelia.

Jacksonville rents it less for the photo and more for the road; it is the sports car people who own sports cars pick.

The car at a glance

• Engine and power: a 3.5-litre supercharged V6, 400 hp, a manual-feel chassis and the lightest car on the list.
• Seats: 2. Luggage: about 1 bag.
• Minimum age: 21. Daily rate: $549.
• Delivery: included across the Jacksonville metro and at JAX.

The price and what it includes

$549 a day. Three days or more take about 15% off and a full week close to 30%; the exact figure comes with your dates. The rate includes delivery and collection anywhere in Jacksonville, the Beaches, Ponte Vedra, St. Augustine, Orange Park and Amelia Island, curbside service at JAX, insurance on the vehicle, roadside assistance for the whole rental and a daily mileage allowance. The car arrives detailed and full. Not included: fuel, tolls and the refundable security hold, which is confirmed in writing before you pay anything.

Where we deliver the 2024 Lotus Emira in Jacksonville

Jacksonville Beach, Neptune Beach, Atlantic Beach and Ponte Vedra first, because that is where the sports cars go; then Riverside, San Marco, the Southbank hotels, the Town Center hotels, and St. Augustine. Delivery inside the Jacksonville metro is included in the rate; for addresses further out, Palm Coast or Brunswick for example, we quote the delivery with your dates. Because the car comes from Orlando, same-day delivery in Jacksonville is not always possible: tell us the dates as early as you can and we confirm the slot by phone.

The drive

A1A south from Ponte Vedra through Vilano Beach to St. Augustine is the drive: twenty-odd miles with the Atlantic on your left and the dunes on your right, best before nine in the morning. North, the Mayport ferry across the St. Johns and the road up Heckscher Drive and Amelia Island is the half day. State Road 13 along the river to Green Cove Springs is the quiet alternative on a Sunday. The mileage allowance covers all of it.

Pick-up and return

Handover takes about ten minutes: licence and card, a walk-around with photographs on both sides, the drive modes and anything particular to the car, and the keys. At the end we collect where you tell us — the house, the hotel or the departures curb at JAX — and do the same walk-around before releasing the hold. There is no office to find and no line to stand in.

Requirements and deposit

You must be 21 or older with a valid driver’s licence, proof of full-coverage insurance that extends to a vehicle of this value and a major credit card in your own name. International licences are accepted with a passport. The deposit is a refundable hold on the card, released after the return inspection; the amount depends on the car and is confirmed in writing before delivery.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to rent the 2024 Lotus Emira in Jacksonville?

$549 a day, the same rate as Orlando because the car is delivered from our Orlando base. Three days or more take about 15% off the daily rate and a full week close to 30%. Delivery and collection across Jacksonville, the Beaches, Ponte Vedra and St. Augustine, and curbside at JAX, are included.

Do you deliver the 2024 Lotus Emira to Jacksonville International Airport?

Yes. Curbside at JAX arrivals with your flight tracked, so a late landing never costs you the car. No counter, no shuttle, no airport fee. Collection at departures works the same way.

What is the minimum age to rent it?

21. You also need a valid driver’s licence, proof of full-coverage insurance that extends to a vehicle of this value and a major credit card in your own name. International licences are accepted with a passport.

Is there a mileage limit in Jacksonville?

There is a daily allowance that covers normal Jacksonville driving, including the A1A run to St. Augustine and the day on Amelia Island. Tell us the route when you book and we confirm the allowance in writing; longer trips are quoted up front.

How far ahead should I book for a Jaguars weekend or THE PLAYERS?

Weeks. The Florida-Georgia weekend, THE PLAYERS in March and the Jaguars home games are the dates Jacksonville sells out first, and the cars come up from Orlando on a schedule. For an ordinary week, a few days is usually enough.
