For driving around urban areas while also having the possibility of venturing further afield, a 4x4 is an excellent choice of vehicle for your car hire in East London. The city, and the Eastern Cape in general, features many different types of roads and driving environments, so a comfortable 4x4 puts you safe in the knowledge that you are ready for anything. If you are planning on purely sticking to the central downtown area, then you may also consider a compact car for a nice and simple way of getting around.
While many aspects of South African culture are shared with the UK, speed limits and road signs in general are actually displayed in kilometres per hour instead of miles per hour.

For public roads that are not a motorway (motorway) but are outside an urban area, the limit increases to 100km/h (roughly 62mph). On the motorway itself, the limit is 120km/h (roughly 75mph).

Some East London 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 East London.
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 East London car hire.
