The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Naxos are: BMW X5, Hyundai Santa Fe, Daihatsu Terios, Toyota 4Runner, Toyota Fortuner, BMW X3 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 Greece 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 Greece are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
If there is a need to park on a narrow street, then do not forget to turn on a warning light before the maneuver. This way you will warn drivers that ride behind your car of the maneuver, so they will have enough time to slow down and wait until the parking will be completed.
Taking into consideration the nature of local roads (narrow and often with one-way direction of motion), parking with the car’s back is better. That is the way how local people park. With such a type of parking it will be easier to go back to the road and join traffic.
In the evening and at night many police officers are on duty on roads that pass popular bars and taverns. Their main aim is to find drivers who ride a vehicle drunk. If a police officer asks to take a breath test that will identify the content of alcohol in blood, in no case should one refuse - this will inevitably lead to a severe punishment.
