What types of cars can I rent in Santa Catarina?
Consider a full-size car. Whether it's because of their spacious interiors or high-end features like heated seats and sunroofs, they're the most popular rental group in Santa Catarina. Larger than a standard car, five adults will comfortably fit in a full-size. Smaller options are available, though. Compact and economy rides are great for cruising around busy cities.

It'd be smart to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen rental company to escape any nasty surprises when picking up your keys.
