When considering car hire in Cognac and exploring the narrow streets of Cognac's city centre, a compact car would be ideal. It offers easy manoeuvrability and parking within confined spaces. If you plan on venturing into the countryside, an SUV is recommended for better handling on winding roads. Some areas, like Rue Grande or Rue Martell, are known for their narrow streets. Likewise, if you plan on visiting nearby towns like Jarnac or Segonzac, a larger car may be more comfortable for longer journeys.

The speed limit in urban areas of Cognac is generally 50 km/h (31 mph), unless otherwise signposted. On rural roads, the speed limit is 90 km/h (56 mph), and on motorways, it is 110 km/h (68 mph). It's important to adhere to these limits and watch out for speed cameras, especially in residential areas or near schools.
