Suzuki Dzire hire in Seychelles

The saloon. Three large suitcases fit behind the seats and out of sight, which is the whole argument for it.

How it drives

What the Suzuki Dzire is actually for.

The Dzire is a Swift with a boot welded on, and on a holiday that is a bigger difference than it sounds. Luggage goes behind a locked lid instead of sitting in the back window where every car park can see it.

Three hundred and seventy-eight litres takes three large cases. That is the difference between an easy airport run and an argument at the kerb.

It stays on Mahé. If you need a boot on Praslin as well, take the Brezza.

Questions about this car

Asked about the Suzuki Dzire, every week.

Can we take the Suzuki Dzire to Praslin?

No. The Suzuki Dzire is a Mahé car and the booking form will not offer you a Praslin handover for it. If your week includes Praslin, the Picanto, the Swift, the Fronx, the Urban Cruiser and the Brezza all go across.

Is the Suzuki Dzire automatic or manual?

Automatic. Every car in this fleet is automatic except the Mini Moke, and listings that say otherwise are copying a data entry error.

What does one day cost, rather than three?

€65 · ₹7,200 for a single calendar day. From two days the daily rate applies, which is €55 · ₹6,000 a day. The calculator above does this for you.

Do you take a deposit?

No. We do not hold a deposit and we do not take a card number in advance. You pay when the car is handed to you, on the island.

Will my Indian licence do?

Yes. A valid Indian driving licence is accepted in Seychelles. An International Driving Permit is not required. If you happen to hold one already, carry it, but do not delay a trip to get one.

Which side of the road?

The left, with the wheel on the right, exactly as at home. This is the single biggest advantage an Indian traveller has here over a European one. Speed limits are forty kilometres an hour through villages and sixty-five outside them, and they are measured.

Is there a kilometre limit?

No. Unlimited kilometres and insurance are both in the daily rate, and a second driver costs nothing. Put both names on the enquiry.

Ask Meera to hold the Suzuki Dzire.
