The streets in Karlsruhe are well maintained and wide enough to accommodate all cars, but a smaller car rental in Karlsruhe will be easier to navigate and certainly easier to find parking in the city. One of the things to be aware of is the low emission zones in the city. You cannot enter these areas without a sticker and face large fines if you do so it's a good idea to consider renting a hybrid car or electric car if they're available. You can find out from the company which cars come with the required sticker.
The maximum speed in the city is the same as in the rest of Germany, which you'll need to be aware of to drive anywhere in the country. If you're inside the city limits and in built-up areas, the limit is capped at 50 km/h. There are certain areas where the maximum speed is 30 km/h, such as schools and other areas where kids are known to be. Outside on the urban roads, the limit is usually 100 km/h. If you're on a major motorway, speed limits can go up to 130 km/h.
Several places in the city require a parking permit to park which has a yearly fee that comes with it. Try to find a hotel that offers parking for free to avoid issues with finding parking. There are areas in the city where you won't be able to park if you don't have a permit. There are several on-street parking spots where you'll have to purchase a parking ticket from a nearby machine and estimate how long you'll be, and then place the ticket on your windshield. There are also numerous parking garages, and you'll be given a ticket upon entry that you'll need to pay before leaving, and these tend to be a lot easier.

Some Karlsruhe 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 Karlsruhe.
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 Karlsruhe car hire.
