What Is A Subcompact Rent A Car

Compact sedan cars are the next group up from small cars.

Subcompact cars have seating for up to four passengers with enough luggage space to fit one large and one small bag. Fuel is estimated to be 23 mpg in town and 32 mpg on highways.

Compact car hire is more suited for city travel and short adventures. A compact car can give plenty of room for those looking for a perfect means of transportation for a family vacation or sightseeing travel with friends.

What Is The Difference Between Economy And Compact Rental Car?

The main difference is the size of the vehicles.

A subcompact car is typically a hatchback or small sedan. A compact rental car will offer more room and fit oversized items in your trunk, like large suitcases.

These vehicle classes are generally affordable to rent and drive (offering excellent fuel efficiency). Mini compact cars size is less than the average SUV size and suitable for four passengers

Tips For Renting A Car In Barbados

An International Driver’s Permit (IDP) is not required for drivers from most countries to rent a car in Bridgetown, Barbados. However, please provide your valid driver’s license from your country of origin and not copy it with you. Get a mandatory visitor’s permit to drive and renting a car in Barbados. Two-month permit fees range from 10 BBD (5 USD) to 100 BBD (50 USD) for a one-year permit. These permits are available at most rental agencies throughout Barbados.
The letter P designates accessible parking areas within town limits. On most roads, you’re free to park outside of city limits. Make sure to always use well-lit areas for safety.
Suppose you’re renting a car in Barbados. In that case, it’s best to avoid rush-hour traffic on the island heading towards Bridgetown between 6:30 am and 8:30 am and out of Bridgetown between 4:30 pm and 5:30 pm weekdays. It is essential to remember this when you’re on the road or have appointments to keep.
Apart from ABC Highway, most roads in Barbados consist of one lane in either direction. Most country roads are poorly lit, so be careful when driving at night. Despite its small size, driving is not unusual to find oneself lost when driving on an island. For first-time visitors, it is especially true. So renting a GPS is a good investment or having some data on your mobile phone using the Google Maps app.
Consider taking a taxi for Barbados car rental locations outside the airport as prices usually include a kiosk fee.
Local drivers honk or beep their horns in greeting.
