Espoo has a mix of narrow roads, especially in the old parts of the city, and wide roads in the newer parts. When hiring a car from the Espoo car hire agencies, consider hiring a compact or mid-size car as they are versatile in space and manoeuvrability, hence suitable for manoeuvring the narrow streets and driving on wider streets. If your errands are mostly in the city centre, having a compact or mid-size car will help with parking, as spaces are limited in the city centre. The vehicles are also fuel efficient and are suitable for long drives.

The default speed limit in Espoo is 50 km/h (30 mph) in urban areas, 80 km/h (50 mph) outside urban areas and on highways, and 30 km/h (20 mph) in residential areas and school zones. Always check for speed signage along the roads, which may change occasionally. Espoo also has speed cameras in certain locations within the city; therefore, ensure you are driving within the set limits to avoid possible fines for violation of speed limit rules.
