A TikTok user, Kayley Slicer, recently went viral after scoring an incredibly lucky car rental deal. While booking with Budget, she selected the "Mystery Car" option for just $25—and was surprised to find herself assigned a high-end Genesis electric vehicle upon pickup. This service allows customers to book an unknown vehicle at an economy rate, with possible models ranging from hybrids and EVs to sporty sedans. The only guaranteed features are seating for at least four passengers and enough space for several suitcases. While some renters have ended up with 15-passenger vans or large pickup trucks, others have struck gold by driving away in Teslas, Jaguars, or even Range Rovers. According to Budget’s website, the Mystery Car option requires full prepayment and offers completely random vehicle assignments, making it ideal for budget-conscious travelers open to a bit of luck on short trips. Slicer’s video has already garnered over 710,000 views, sparking widespread discussion online.
