The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Trondheim are: BMW X3, BMW X5, Toyota Rav4, Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sportage, Suzuki Jimny 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 Norway 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 Norway are mandatory child seats for travellers with children.

Common questions on rental process
Tourists, who will stay in the country for less than three months, are also provided with the opportunity to pay for the use of toll roads automatically. In order to do this, motorists simply need to register a credit card in the system “Visitors Payment”. This can be conveniently done in Internet.
The participants of the Visitors Payment system do not need to install any gadgets in the vehicle. On entering the paid section of the road, the car’s number is recorded, and then checked in the system’s database. If the car is a member of Visitors Payment, then the required amount of money is automatically deducted from the account of the credit card.
It is better to sign up in the system in advance (10 - 14 days before making the first ride on a toll road) despite the fact that formally there is no time limit on the use of the service. The drivers, who are registered in the system, must cross the checkpoints using the special AutoPASS lanes.
