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

Common questions on rental process
Drivers, who are used to breaking the speed limit, should not expect that their violation will be missed. Even if the excess of the driving speed will be just 1 km/h, the driver will have to pay a large fine.
The speed control is usually carried out with the help of cameras, the presence of which is usually marked with appropriate signs along roads. As a rule, these signs are placed approximately one mile before the actual location of the camera.
The drivers, who are used to riding in heavy traffic, may consider local roads quite deserted. The reason is local residents do not use private cars frequently. In Sweden, it is really rare to find a family that has more than two cars.
