In addition to all the standard features, they come with added perks like awesome fuel economy and affordable rental fees. Hop behind the wheel of one and make your way around Taipei and Kaohsiung without difficulty.From sandy shores to gorges and valleys, Taiwan boasts some awesome natural areas. Why not hit the highway and drive around the best of them? Hightail it out of the city and organize some exciting excursions. An SUV is suited to those longer drives. With the power to handle all types of terrain, these larger vehicles make it a cinch to get off the beaten path.

Sometimes it’s all about the journey, which makes choosing the right car important. If you’re planning an unforgettable road trip around Taiwan, a robust and stylish SUV could be your perfect match. If you’re hoping for the best possible deal and plan on staying mostly in the city, a budget compact is a wise pick. All you need to do is choose what will suit you best, pack up the car, and rack up those miles.

Motorists drive on the right-hand side of the road in Taiwan. Even though the rules may be similar to home, it’s always wise to drive more cautiously in places you’ve never been.

Normally your car rental company will charge the amount stated on the fine to your credit card, including local surcharges. Or they may supply your contact details to local authorities, who’ll then issue a fine directly to you.
