What type of car is recommended for driving in Fukuoka?

Road conditions tend to be good, although side streets in the city can be rather narrow making it hard for larger vehicles to navigate. If you are planning on exploring the outskirts of the city, we recommend a small or compact car hire such as Suzuki Wagon R or a Nissan Versa Note. Both cars are automatics which is recommended for driving in high traffic or on curvy roads. Traffic congestion can be high in the Fukuoka city centre, which again requires a small compact car to maximise fuel efficiency and to make the driving experience easier.
