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

Common questions on rental process
Roads in the country are quite complex. As a rule, they are very narrow and have no markings even if the surface is asphalt. Herds of livestock are typical “guests” of country roads. Needless to say, they are a serious danger to drivers, just like horse-drawn carts.
Drivers, who will visit Lithuania for the first time, are not recommended to drive on country roads at night. If in residential areas main roads are usually well lit, in the countryside road lighting is really poor. At night, trucks have become a serious source of danger for drivers as trucks often move with no parking lights.
Travellers should be particularly careful when travelling in historic districts of the cities. In some cities, it is not allowed to enter their territory by car. As a rule, in many historic areas the majority of roads are narrow with one-way traffic, so even locals often cannot find the right way.
