Why Rent a Mini Car in South Africa Mini cars are a great way to travel very short distances due to their size. Such models are perfect for solo travellers or two passengers with up to three carry-on bags. Book a Mini car if you are staying only in big cities and are not planning on going on longer trips within South Africa. Mini cars will accompany you on your short city drives, for example in Cape Town or Johannesburg, and will be easy to park and maneuver on busy city streets.

Popular mini rental cars in South Africa: Chevrolet Spark, Datsun Go Hatchback, Hyundai i10 and similar cars.

Why Rent an Economy Car in South Africa Our next category is Economy cars. The Economy car class will grant you freedom of travel at your own pace while keeping the rental price fairly low. If you are travelling light, book a car from this category and profit from their fuel efficiency and price. Economy cars are a bit bigger than Mini cars and offer enough room for four passengers, one large suitcase and two smaller carry-on bags.

Most popular Economy car rentals in South Africa: Suzuki Swift, Ford Fiesta, Volkswagen Polo, Hyundai Accent, Honda Jazz and many others.

Why Rent a Compact Car in South Africa Although Compact cars still belong to the smaller vehicle class, they impress with their affordable prices, comfort, and a wide variety of models.
