The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Chennai are: Nissan Pathfinder 4WD, Toyota Landcruiser, Chrysler Journey, Toyota Fortuner, Daihatsu Terios, Hyundai Santa Fe 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 India 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 India are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
If a car moving behind you is honking, this way it warns other road users that it is going to overtake. At the crossroads, the car that is the first one to approach the crossroads and to make a sound signal has the advantage.
Traffic lights are also a kind of street decoration for local drivers and pedestrians. Even on large roads with heavy traffic no one pays any attention to them. The city of Calcutta is the only exception to the rule. In that city drivers always respect signals of traffic lights and follow their commands.
Pedestrians in India have already become accustomed to such a situation on the road, so they deftly and without any doubt cross the road, maneuvering skillfully between moving cars. As it has been mentioned above, traffic accidents are rare in India, although the road situation looks pretty intimidating.
