Norwich SUV Rentals

Nearly every rental agency in Norwich has restrictions when it comes to off-road driving. For that reason, you may be required to pay for additional insurance in order to drive your SUV hire on specific types of terrain, including dirt or unsealed roads. Unfortunately, ignoring these restrictions will lead to the cancellation of your insurance policy, and you may be liable for repairs and damages if anything happens. So it is always best to inform your chosen rental agency of your plans beforehand to avoid any issues.

Most full-size SUVs come with a 4WD system that allows you to select either two or four-wheel drive manually. Activating 4WD makes the front and rear axles rotate or work independently, allowing for efficient navigation across slippery, variable, and rugged terrain. But you must switch off the 4WD when driving on smooth or tarred roads in order to prevent ‘wind up,’ a situation which makes the wheels fight one another for dominance. Most mid-size and compact SUVs come with AWD functionalities and are safer than 4WD because they are permanently engaged.

There are both paid and free parking available in the city, and you can decide on the one that suits your need. Car parks with free parking spots available include Monastery Court car park, Colegate car park, St Crispins car park, and Queens Road car park. However, these fill up quite quickly, so if you want to park later in the day, you may need to use paid car parks.
