New Plymouth has a mix of urban and rural areas, including narrow and winding roads, so you can opt for a compact or mid-sized car, because they can be practical for navigating windy roads and narrower streets. They can also be advantageous for manoeuvring through tight spaces and navigating winding roads with ease. In addition, choosing a car with good fuel efficiency can be beneficial, particularly if you plan to explore the region or take longer drives. It can help reduce fuel costs and minimise environmental impact. Keep in mind that if you plan to explore more remote or rugged areas surrounding New Plymouth, having a car with AWD or 4WD capabilities can provide better traction and handling.
