It is recommended to rent a small compact car for driving in Groningen. This is because the city center has narrow and winding streets, and parking can be difficult to find. A small car will be easier to maneuver and park in tight spaces. Additionally, the terrain is mostly flat and there are no major hills to navigate, so a small car with good fuel efficiency should suffice.
