Every trip has different requirements. A car that is ideal for parking in the city center may not be the best choice for a long highway trip or a vacation with the whole family and luggage. Therefore, choosing the right type of vehicle is one of the most important decisions when booking a rental.
The good news is that when you rent, you are not tied to anything. Unlike your own car, you can always choose a vehicle that suits your current needs — today an economical compact for driving around town, next month a spacious SUV for the mountains.
The biggest advantage of renting is flexibility. You don't have to compromise between a city car and a family vehicle — you simply rent what you need.
When choosing, consider three things: where you're going, how many people and luggage you're carrying, and your budget. Everything else depends on that — consumption, comfort, and the price of the rental per day.
City car, sedan or SUV — comparison
A compact city car is a great choice for driving in heavy traffic and parking in tight spaces — it has low fuel consumption and the best rental price. A sedan offers more space and comfort on longer routes, making it ideal for business trips and representative purposes. An SUV can handle a family vacation with a full trunk, and the higher position behind the wheel gives a better overview and a calmer driving experience even in bad weather.
- City car: low consumption, easy parking, lowest daily rate — ideal for city driving and short routes. Sedan: comfort and space on the highway — the choice for business trips and longer journeys. SUV: large luggage space and higher seating position — for family holidays and mountain trips. Are there more people traveling with luggage? It is better to plan for a larger trunk than seems necessary. For long routes, take into account consumption — the savings on the daily rate may be lost in fuel.
