They have two to five doors, and are a good choice due to their fuel efficiency and economical rental prices. Examples in this category include the Vauxhall Corsa, Ford Fiesta and Renault Clio. Vehicles such as the Ford Focus and Peugeot 308 are available in the Compact category, and are of a similar size to those in the Economy class. The vehicles mentioned above don’t however have much room for luggage, therefore a larger vehicle may be more suitable for longer road trips.
Larger vehicles seating between three and four adults, and one or two children, can be hired from the categories of Intermediate, Standard and Full-Size. These vehicles also have space for two or three large luggage items and one or two smaller items, and are a good choice for any type of driving, whether it be for longer travels or just shorter distances. The Ford Mondeo and Opel Zafira are example vehicles in the Intermediate category, the Standard category features the VW Passat and Vauxhall Vectra, while the Mercedes C Class and Saab 9-5 can be hired from the Full-Size category.
