A medium-sized sedan is a good option as it’s not too light when driving in strong winds and not too large when exploring the narrower streets of Funchal or other villages. Manual cars are much more common in Madeira, so if you’re not used to driving a stick, make sure to request an automatic in advance.
The speed limit within cities and villages is usually 50 km/h (31 mph), but it may be lower in certain residential areas or on blind curves, so watch out for the posted signs. Non-urban roads observe a speed limit of 90 km/h (56 mph), and highways allow you to drive at a maximum of 120 km/h (75 mph).
The roads in Funchal are quite narrow, which means small parking spots. While street parking spaces aren’t plentiful and are almost never free, there are many underground and multi-story parking garages around the city, including at the Anadia Shopping Center, which is a five minute walk to the old town. Meter parking rates can range between €0.10 and €3 per hour, depending on the location.

Child safety seats are mandatory for children younger than 12 years old or those shorter than 135 cm. It's the driver's responsibility to make sure children are secured properly in the vehicle. Many car rental companies offer child safety seats for an additional fee, but it's always a good idea to check in advance to make sure they're available. Drivers should also be aware that fines can be imposed for not complying with child safety seat regulations.

Pros:
The rental car area was very easy to locateCons:
The prices listed for rental car’s were incorrect, upon arrival we were charged significantly more for a car for an automatic transmission even though we had selected one in our online reservation. The car we were given also had significant mechanical issues. Overall the experience was not just inconvenient it was dangerous! I would never consider booking another rental car this way.One location in Funchal

Some Funchal car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Funchal.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Funchal car hire.
