Johannesburg, South Africa: SUV and Offroad Rental Tips
The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Johannesburg are: Nissan Pathfinder 4WD, Toyota Landcruiser, Daihatsu Terios, Hyundai Santa Fe, Jeep Wrangler, Suzuki Jimny 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 South Africa 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 South Africa are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Johannesburg!

Driving Advices for South Africa – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
Black women are often called the most undisciplined drivers on local roads. They rarely accompany their maneuvers with appropriate light signals, so it is better to expect literally anything from them. Experienced drivers are recommended to keep as far as possible from such drivers.
Taxi and bus drivers are another potential source of problem as they are also likely to make very sudden and unexpected maneuvers. Fixed run taxis often exceed the permitted speed and cut in front of other cars.
There are many picturesque roads that may attract the attention of curious travelers, but tourists are recommended to visit the road that connects Porth Elizabeth and Mussels Bay. The road runs along the Indian Ocean coast and is particularly popular with fans of natural places of interest.
