Paris, France: Hatchback Rental
The most popular models representing the mini, compact, and economy car segments in Paris are: Peugeot 107, Smart Car, Toyota Aygo, Chevrolet Matiz, Hyundai Atos, Kia Picanto and others.

When hiring a budget hatchback, it is definitely worth saving on insurance deposit (franchise). Deposits on small cars in France 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 France 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 Paris, 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 Paris!

Driving Advices for France – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
There is a “main road” in all small towns located near the national road. In addition to the corresponding sign, the entrance to this road may be indicated by either a solid line ("stop"), or a line of triangles ("give way").
Drivers, who plan to travel in suburban areas a lot and want to make rides from one city to another, are recommended to install a GPS-navigator in their cars. The reason for this is the fact that even on large highways important signs may not be present in the right place.
According to local regulations, every car should always be equipped with a warning triangle. In the period from the beginning of November through the end of March cars can be used only in case they are equipped with winter tires. Violators of this rule are due to large fines.
