Well that depends where you’ll be wandering. Downtown Kelowna, about 31 miles from Penticton, BC Airport (YYF-Penticton Regional), can be difficult to drive around. Make life easier by opting for something compact, fuel-efficient, and simple to handle. That being said, Kelowna is a good base to explore some of the foothills in British Columbia. If your getaway is more about steering down lengthy stretches of road, then you may prefer something with a bit more trunk space and room to move about. How about an SUV or a full-size car?
