Question 3

What kind of rental car should I get for Petropolis?

Accepted Answer

Petropolis knows how to dazzle. You could stay a week or more here and not get bored. If you want to take in as much as you can in this energetic metropolis, you'll need a rental car. Bear in mind that driving around the city usually goes hand in hand with tight streets and limited parking spots. Don't worry though, because a compact or mini car will make this a lot less daunting. If you can't wait to head straight out of the city and explore some of the sandy shores that Petropolis is renowned for, you may prefer a rental car with more power. A mid-size or full-size SUV will suit your needs.

Question 4

Should I get a luxury rental car in Petropolis?

Accepted Answer

You'll be glad to hear that there's an impressive variety of both economy and luxury vehicles to rent in Petropolis. What you end up opting for will depend on what you're willing to spend and what you plan to do. Specialty and prestige vehicles often spare no expense when it comes to comfort and class. If you want to indulge yourself, why not pick a fully kitted-out SUV, or perhaps a flashy medium-sized vehicle? On the other hand, if you just need a car to get you from A to B as economically as possible, we can help you out with a versatile compact vehicle (or something else that won't break the bank).
