Zurich - Offroad 4x4 Car Hire

Searching for SUVs and Crossovers

The white form is preset to search for SUV and crossover vehicles in the 'Zurich - Airport' rental office. Address: Zurich International Airport, Terminal B, Switzerland.

In Zurich, we offer vehicles at 12 different rental locations (see the links below). Normally, the best SUV rental offers in Switzerland are provided by offices located in airports and train stations.

We recommend the following principle for selection of an off-road model for trips in Switzerland: if your planned routes are mainly within a city borders – a small crossover, while if the routes go through countryside or mountain regions – a large and powerful off-road 4x4 car.

Zurich, Switzerland: SUV and Offroad Rental Tips
The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Zurich are: Toyota Landcruiser, Hyundai Santa Fe, Hyundai Tuscon, Suzuki Jimny, Kia Sportage, Toyota Rav4 and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in Switzerland ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in Switzerland are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Zurich!

Previous hints
The local police are very strict when it comes to traffic regulations. Having exceeded the speed of just 5 km/h, you are likely to get a substantial fine. It is not recommended to argue with the police because in this case the amount of the fine may increase substantially.
The average cost of one hour of parking is 2 francs. The pay is charged in the period from Monday to Saturday. On Sunday, some parking lots are free.
The parking lots, which are located in the city, are usually marked with different colors. The parking zone of the blue color means that the maximum parking time is 90 minutes, and in parking lots, marked with red, the car can be left for no more than 15 minutes. Free parking areas are marked with white.

Those tourists, who expect to travel around the city a lot, are recommended to purchase Halbtax card. It provides tourists with the right to enjoy price reductions in all types of public transport. The discount can reach 50%. This card is the best choice for tourists who expect to stay in Zurich for a week or more. If your stay in the city lasts at least 6 days, Tageskarte card will be a better solution for you.

Despite the fact that hotels in Zurich are among the most expensive in Europe, the quality of service deserves the highest praise. Tourists, who are accustomed to luxury, can safely book a room in a three-star hotel - the level of service it will be up to par.

Tourists, who expect to prepare meals by themselves, and thus save on visiting restaurants, are recommended to visit such shops as Coop, Denner and Migros. Prices in them are very reasonable, and in the evenings discounts on some items may take up to 50%. It would be a mistake to think that all of the discounted goods are of poor quality - shopping complexes often update their supply with fresher products, and so they try to sell the old ones as soon and possible.
