When considering which is the best vehicle for car hire in Sharjah, your choice will be based on the type of adventure you're after. If your main intention is to explore the city, an economy or mini car would be the best bet, for fuel consumption and for making parking in the city easy. If you are looking for an off-road desert adventurer a 4x4 or SUV is a perfect choice and can handle the driving conditions of extreme terrains like when driving in the Dubai desert. For a family adventure, a medium or large car will handle more passengers and luggage well.

There are three main rules when thinking about the speed limits in Sharjah. You need to be going at 80 km/h in urban areas. 100 km/p in rural settings, and between 110 km/h and 160 km/h on the highway. When you get off of these main roads it can become a bit trickier; however, the roads are well signposted and you won't have any confusion about what the speed limit is on the particular road you are on.

Be aware of where you are trying to park your car hire in Sharjah, as typically around the UAE there is a 'no parking at any time' rule unless otherwise indicated by a parking sign. When you do find parking zones on the streets you'll notice they are free of charge from Sunday to Thursday and hold a time limit of no more than 3 hours. It's easier to park in a parking lot, or in a public space like outside an attraction or shopping mall.
