Locarno, Switzerland: SUV and Offroad Rental Tips
The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Locarno are: BMW X3, BMW X5, Toyota Rav4, Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sportage, 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 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 Locarno!

The tunnel of Munt la Schera is also a paid one. This tunnel connects the canton of Grisons with the Italian valley of Livigno. The length of the tunnel is approximately 3.4 km. There is the reverse motion there as the width of the tunnel is only 2.5 meters. The cost of one ride in the tunnel is 15 francs for cars.
On highways, the maximum permitted speed is 120 km/h. The speed control is carried out by special radars. The police often patrol the roads using ordinary cars without any markings, so it is not recommended to risk and break the rules.
Stopping on the highway and parking the car on the road border is allowed in exceptional cases only, for example, in case of an acute health problem or a break. If the driver stopped because he had ran out of fuel, he will have to pay a large fine for violation of the traffic regulations.

Enjoying SUV and sightseeing of Locarno

Locarno is a city located on the shore of Lake Maggiore at the foot of the Alpine ridge. The second name of this place is "City of Peace." Locarno got this name after the international agreement about peace had been signed here in 1925. Another reason for this name is in the fact Locarno is a magnificent lakeside recreation area full of beautiful subtropical parks. International Film Festival traditionally takes place in the huge central square of the city. This is one of the most important and famous festivals throughout Europe.

The architecture of Locarno is mostly represented by the Italian style. This fact is particularly evident in the Piedmont region with its stone walls and roofs.
