Hire a 4x4 SUV for your Iceland vacation and travel around the country with total ease and comfort. The 4WD cars can handle the Icelandic weather and road conditions all year round. If you are planning to explore Iceland’s natural wonders and outdoor attractions as much as you can, a 4x4 is the best car for you.
Renting a 4WD car in Iceland allows you to drive on different types of roads, including mountain roads (i.e. the F-roads of the Icelandic Highlands), when they are open during the summer season. The 4WD feature gives the vehicle added traction and makes it easier for you to traverse rough terrains or drive through unpredictable and ever-changing weather.
If you plan to visit Iceland during the winter season (between late September to early May), renting a 4x4 vehicle will be the best choice for your trip. Storm, heavy snow, strong winds, and icy road conditions commonly occur during winter in Iceland. With a 4WD SUV, you can handle all the difficult driving situations with confidence and safety, all year round.
At Lava Car Rental, we have a wide selection of automatic and manual 4x4 cars. We offer 4x4 vehicles from the cheapest ranges, like the Dacia Duster, to more luxurious models like the Toyota Land Cruiser. You can easily find the best car that fits your Iceland vacation budget. If you are looking for a motorhome with better capability in Iceland, we also offer 4x4 camper vans in our fleet.
The 4WD SUVs provide larger trunks and roomy seats that can fit small to large groups from 2 to 5 travelers. Rent your 4WD vehicle and prepare for a carefree trip in Iceland today!
We consider 4x4 cars like Dacia Duster, Toyota Rav4, or Land Cruiser. We also have 4x4 Campervans.
Those cars have 4 wheel-drive option (4WD) and they are elevated so perfectly suitable to drive on gravel and snow. They are usually spacious cars ideal for families and friends.
You can find more details about 4x4 cars in Iceland in our complete guide.
4x4 cars and 4x4 campers are suitable for driving around Iceland all seasons. Thanks to their height and ground clearance, they are easy and comfortable to drive on snow and gravel. The 4WD option allows you to drive on F-roads in summer.
It depends on your itinerary and your traveling season. We would recommend renting a 4x4 car in winter because it is easier to drive with this type of car in winter conditions than with an economy car.
In summer, if you travel along the Ring Road, you do not need this type of car but you would be more in comfort with it. It would be mandatory if you want to drive on F-roads to access the Highlands like Landmannalaugar.
You need to be 20 years old or older with a valid license to rent a 4x4 car with Lava Car Rental.
During winter, from November to April, the cars have winter tires. For the rest of the year, the cars come with standard tires.
