One of the best ways to explore the attractions that Jozi has to offer is by rental car. When it comes to choosing the ideal rental car for your needs and pocket, there are a few things that you need to take into consideration. The days where your choices were subcompact, compact, midsize or sports car is over. Today the number of available choices have increased to include things like 10 seater minivans, bakkies and SUVs.
Top things to take into consideration when you choose a rental car
What type of rental car do you need?
Think in terms of how many people will be traveling with, how much luggage you will have as well as what your available budget is for a rental car. For instance if you are traveling alone a Polo Vivo rental might be ideal for you based on the fact that they are highly fuel efficient cars that are comfortable to drive without costing a fortune, but if you are going to be traveling in a group of say 5 or 6 people, then you will have to consider renting a Minivan to ensure that there is enough space for everybody and their luggage.
How much driving do you intent to do
If you are intending on driving long distances, it is a good idea to look into which suitable cars have the best fuel economy. With the rising cost of fuel, this can take a big chunk out of your traveling budget. Car rental companies also have different rates for different amounts of intended mileage, it is a good idea to be honest with yourself and them in this regard as you will be charged quite a bit extra for excessive driving.
Make sure that you understand the car rental agreement
It is important to ensure that you have a clear understanding of the car rental agreement you sign in terms of how the insurance works, what amount of mileage you can put on the car, what added extras you are paying for as well as by when you have to return the rental car.
