Rent an Opel Crossland X in Iceland | 2WD | Manual
The Opel Crossland X is a good option if you’re planning a longer road trip but don’t need a 4x4. It’s a fuel-efficient 2WD with room for five people and two large bags. Ring Rental’s models are manual and may be petrol or diesel. You can take the Crossland farther than a Reykjavík-based trip, but F-roads, road 550, and road 35 are off-limits.

Is the Opel Crossland X a Good Rental Car for Iceland?
Yes, especially if you want to see more of Iceland while sticking to roads where 2WD vehicles are permitted.
- You can build a bigger itinerary around it. As long as your plans stay on roads where 2WD vehicles are permitted, you aren't limited to Reykjavík and the surrounding area.
- It’s fuel efficient. That becomes more important when you’re driving longer distances and filling up several times during your trip.
- There’s room for two large bags. Keep that in mind if you’re filling all five seats. The number of passengers the car can hold and the amount of luggage it can carry are two different things.
- Ring Rental’s Crosslands are around 2024 models. Some are petrol and some are diesel, and Ring Rental can’t guarantee which one you’ll receive.
When to Choose the Opel Crossland X
- Summer: A longer summer road trip doesn't necessarily require a 4x4. If the roads on your itinerary allow 2WD vehicles, the Crossland can take you well beyond Reykjavík without moving up to a larger rental.
- Winter: Look closely at your route before deciding. The Crossland is 2WD, so if you’re planning to cover a lot of distance in winter, compare it with one of Ring Rental’s 4x4s before you book.
- Spring and autumn: Conditions during spring and autumn months can vary, so don't assume that a trip that works for a 2WD in summer will look the same in April or October. The Crossland still works where 2WD vehicles are permitted, but your route needs to stay within those limits.
Not the Right Car If…
- You want to explore the Highlands. The Crossland cannot be driven on F-roads. Roads 550 and 35 are also off-limits.
- You only drive an automatic. Ring Rental’s Crossland X models are manual.
- You specifically want petrol or diesel. Ring Rental has both, and a particular fuel type can’t be guaranteed.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I drive an Opel Crossland X on F-roads in Iceland?
-
No. Ring Rental’s Opel Crossland X is 2WD and cannot be driven on F-roads. Roads 550 and 35 are also excluded. If your plans include any of these roads, choose one of Ring Rental’s 4x4 vehicles instead.
- Is the Opel Crossland X good for a longer Iceland road trip?
-
Yes. In fact, this is one of the reasons to choose the Crossland. It’s fuel efficient and a good fit for travelers who want to cover more distance but know they’ll be staying on roads where 2WD vehicles are allowed.
- How much luggage fits in the Opel Crossland X?
-
Plan on two large bags. The Crossland seats five, but five passengers with several large suitcases will need more luggage space. For a couple, the two-bag limit should be much easier to work with.
- Will my Opel Crossland X be petrol or diesel?
-
You could get either. Ring Rental has both petrol and diesel Crosslands, and the fuel type isn’t guaranteed. Make sure you know which one you’ve been given before your first stop at a petrol station.
- Do I need a 4x4 instead of an Opel Crossland X?
-
Not necessarily. If everything you want to see is accessible with a 2WD, the Crossland may be enough for your trip. A 4x4 becomes necessary when your itinerary includes roads where the Crossland isn't permitted.
If you want to cover more ground but your itinerary doesn’t require a 4x4, the Crossland gives you another option without moving up to a larger rental.
