The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Bergamo are: BMW X5, Hyundai Santa Fe, Suzuki Jimny, Hyundai Tuscon, BMW X3, 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 Italy 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 Italy are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
When driving on a highway that has several lanes in one direction, drivers should occupy as extreme right lane as possible. The extreme left lane should preferably be used only to regroup and overtake other cars. Once the maneuver is finished, drivers should return their cars to right lanes.
If a crossing has a circular movement, cars within the circle have a priority. Entering such an intersection, as well as leaving it, is considered one of the most risky and difficult maneuvers for inexperienced drivers. In order to "fit" the fast moving row of cars, a driver must have a considerable skill level.
When driving on a highway, stops can only be made in specially designated places. They are made in a shape of small draw-ins with the «SOS» sign. Making a stop in the wrong place will result in a large fine.
