The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Avignon 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 France 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 France are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
Note that “discounts” for fines are applied not to all traffic regulation violations, but only in case the fine was issued for a minor violation, such as a small speeding. Drivers must never forget to pay off all fines. A delay will inevitably lead to litigation and, as a result, to even greater financial penalties.
In addition diesel fuel, local gas stations offer unleaded petrol (sans plomb). Gas filling stations can be easily distinguished by the special LPG sign. Drivers are permitted to carry petrol in cans.
In winter traffic on some roads is possible only for cars equipped with special chains. Drivers will be notified about this by special warning signs. Chains should be added to the driving wheels only. In this case the vehicle’s speed should not be more than 50 km/h.
