Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia: Hatchback Rental
The most popular models representing the mini, compact, and economy car segments in Kota Kinabalu are: Toyota Aygo, Hyundai Atos, Hyundai Accent, Nissan Micra, Renault Modus, Chevrolet Aveo and others.

When hiring a budget hatchback, it is definitely worth saving on insurance deposit (franchise). Deposits on small cars in Malaysia vary from 100 to 1.000 euro/dollars. Check the rental conditions of each car in your selection to find a vehicle with a minimum deposit.

If your routes in Malaysia are foreseen to pass through hilly areas or mountains, it is not recommended to consider very small cars for rental. Their engines are usually insufficient for a confident driving on the roads with long or steep climbs.

At the rental office in Kota Kinabalu, consider to take a 'Breakdown Assistance' package or ask an officer for a contact data to use in case of a vehicle breakdown. Cheap cars are sometimes unpredictable in operation.

Upon receipt of the rental invoice, please check that all the information, as well as the final payment amount do match the data in your voucher.

OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe and great trip to Kota Kinabalu!

Driving Advices for Malaysia – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
In case of an accident, you will need to contact the police, otherwise getting the insurance coverage is out of the question. All participants of the accident must go to a police station to file a complaint. The driver, who comes first, has a significant advantage. If one party fails to do that, it is automatically recognized guilty in the accident.
Traffic is very intense in popular resort areas of the country. Surprisingly, these busy roads help foreign motorists get accustomed to peculiarities of local roads. As it is nearly impossible to move quickly in heavy traffic, the traffic there becomes more organized.
Local drivers are distinguished by quite an accurate driving style. They tend to be very attentive and careful on the road. Thank to such behavior, local drivers are able to avoid many road accidents. Locals treat foreign drivers with understanding.

Sightseeing of Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia
Despite the massive destruction during the Second World War, some ancient city buildings have miraculously survived. Among them is the Atkinson Clock Tower built in 1905. It was erected as a monument to Francis George Atkinson, a famous political figure. The tower is a truly unique building: it is completely built of wood, without the use of additional fastening elements. Over the years, the beautiful tower has been repeatedly reconstructed, which did not prevent it from preserving its original appearance. Like a hundred years ago, you can set your watch by the tower's clock.
