The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Bali are: Toyota Rav4, Kia Sportage, Nissan Pathfinder 4WD, Toyota 4Runner, Toyota Fortuner, Toyota Hilux 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 Indonesia 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 Indonesia are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
It would be wrong to think that all roads in Indonesia are bustling and dangerous. Each island has incredibly beautiful and quiet country roads that never cease to attract tourists. They are ideal for walking and are usually located near rice fields.
When driving on main roads, drivers are recommended to use sound signals. At first glance it may seem that local drivers honk endlessly, expressing their aggression. In fact, they use sound signals to remind other road users about their presence, and warn them about the maneuver they are about to make.
It is not difficult to get used to peculiarities of traffic in Indonesia. Simply use common sense and carefully watch other vehicles. Despite the fact that local people are not inclined to comply with even basic safety rules, they are rather accurate drivers.
