Petrol, hybrid or electric: which rental car suits Samui?

Samui is only about 25 km across, so you will rarely drive long distances in a single day. That makes the choice of car more about comfort and running cost than range.

Petrol: simple and flexible

Our Accent, Elantra and Sonata are easy to drive, comfortable and fill up at any petrol station. Choose the Accent for couples and city driving, the Elantra for families or lots of luggage, and the Sonata for a quieter, more spacious ride.

Hybrid: the cheap way to circle the island

The Ioniq Hybrid uses a petrol engine and a battery that recharges as you drive, so there is nothing to plug in. It uses noticeably less fuel than a conventional petrol car, which adds up over a longer stay.

Electric: quiet and cheap to run

The Ioniq Electric is smooth, silent and has zero tailpipe emissions. It suits guests who are happy to plug in at their hotel or a public charger overnight. Tell us where you are staying and we will help you plan charging.
