Argentina is a country where distances defeat the itinerary you'd plan for a smaller place — Bariloche to El Calafate is a multi-day drive, not an afternoon trip, and a lot of Patagonia's best scenery sits along Ruta 40, far from rail lines or reliable bus timetables. A rental car makes sense for the Mendoza wine region, the Lake District, or coastal Patagonia, where public transport exists but runs infrequently between towns that are genuinely far apart. Buenos Aires itself is walkable and taxi-friendly, so most visitors pick up a car only once they're heading toward wine country, the north, or the south.
Fuel stations thin out fast once you leave the pampas, and parts of Ruta 40 in Patagonia are still unpaved gravel (ripio), which affects both speed and the kind of vehicle you want. Argentines drive on the right, and long, straight roads at low traffic density mean speed is the main risk rather than congestion. Winter driving in the Andes near Bariloche or Ushuaia can require snow chains, worth confirming with the supplier if you're traveling June through August.
Some Argentine suppliers require an International Driving Permit alongside a home license, and enforcement of this varies by province, so it's worth confirming rather than assuming your license alone will do. One-way rentals across huge distances (Buenos Aires to Ushuaia, for instance) often carry a steep drop fee or aren't offered at all — check this before building an itinerary around it.
