The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Prague are: Hyundai Tuscon, Toyota Landcruiser, Suzuki Jimny, Kia Sportage, Hyundai Santa Fe, 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 Czechia 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 Czechia are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
In the Czech Republic, roundabouts are considered the main road. If you want to leave the circle, you must use the turning signal to notify other drivers.
In addition to the monetary penalty, drivers get special penalty points for traffic violations they commit. The driver, who has got 12 points, loses the right to drive the vehicle for one year. The number of penalty points is different for every violation, and depends on its severity.
Bicycle remains a typical mode of transport in the Czech Republic. It is worth noting that cyclists are also required to follow traffic regulations. Cyclists have a number of privileges on the road – car drivers should always give way to cyclists at intersections and when making maneuvers.
