Is the Suzuki A-Cross a Good Rental Car for Iceland?
Yes. Space is one of the A-Cross’s biggest advantages, especially when you’re spending a week or more on the road.
- There’s plenty of room for luggage. This is worth considering if you’re travelling with several people or simply don’t want to squeeze everything into a smaller 4x4.
- It’s automatic and AWD. You get the 4x4 capability without having to drive a manual.
- F-roads are permitted. The A-Cross can be driven on Iceland’s F-roads.
- It’s a plug-in hybrid, but you won’t be charging it. Ring Rental doesn’t provide a charging cable with the A-Cross, so plan to drive it as a petrol vehicle.
When to Choose the Suzuki A-Cross
Summer: The A-Cross suits longer itineraries that mix the Ring Road with places such as the Westfjords, where you'll encounter plenty of gravel along with paved roads. AWD gives you some extra reassurance on those stretches.
Winter: AWD can help on snowy or slippery roads, but it doesn't change whether a road is safe or open. Check conditions before longer drives and be prepared to change your plans when the weather does.
Spring and autumn: These are good months to have some flexibility in both your vehicle and your plans. The A-Cross gives you AWD for changing conditions while still offering enough space for a longer road trip.
Not the Right Car If…
- You’re expecting to use it as an electric vehicle. There’s no charging cable included, so choose the A-Cross with the expectation that you’ll be using petrol.
- You’re packing light and staying on paved roads. A smaller vehicle may be all you need for a straightforward Reykjavík, Golden Circle, and South Coast itinerary.
- You want something small for mostly city driving. The extra space and AWD make more sense once you’re getting out of Reykjavík and spending more time on the road.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Suzuki A-Cross a good choice for driving Iceland’s Ring Road?
-
The extra luggage room is a real advantage on a longer Ring Road trip. You’ll also have AWD if you decide to add roads to your itinerary that aren’t suitable for a 2WD rental.
- Can I drive the Suzuki A-Cross in the Westfjords?
-
Yes. The A-Cross has the space for a longer trip and AWD for the gravel roads and changing conditions you may encounter in the Westfjords. Check your route before setting out, since road conditions can vary considerably depending on the season and weather.
- Can I charge the Suzuki A-Cross in Iceland?
-
Ring Rental doesn’t provide a charging cable with this vehicle, so you should plan to use it as a petrol car during your rental rather than relying on charging along the way.
- Should I choose the Suzuki A-Cross or a smaller 4x4?
-
If you're travelling with several people or bringing more luggage, the A-Cross gives you more room without giving up automatic AWD or F-road access. If you're travelling light and don't need the extra space, one of Ring Rental's smaller 4x4s may be enough for your trip.
Choose the A-Cross when you’re planning a longer Iceland road trip where luggage space, automatic transmission, and the freedom to leave the main paved routes all matter.
