When choosing car rental in Padua, a compact or mid-sized car is recommended due to the city's narrow streets and limited parking. A compact car offers better manoeuvrability, making it easier to navigate through the tight lanes and find parking spaces. It is ideal for solo travellers or couples looking for a cost-effective option with good fuel efficiency. For families or larger groups, a mid-sized car provides more comfort and space without compromising manoeuvrability. However, hiring more than one compact car for a family is recommended due to the narrow streets.

The general speed limits in Padua and throughout Italy are as follows: 50 km/h in built-up areas, 90 km/h on open roads, and 130 km/h on motorways. However, it's important to be aware of any specific speed limit signs, as they may vary depending on the road conditions and areas you are driving through. Some areas, such as near schools or construction sites, may have reduced speed limits, so always drive attentively and observe the posted signs.
