Since driving car rentals in Harare can be difficult, you will want to rent a larger vehicle with four-wheel drive, such as an SUV. This is because it will provide better protection from on-road hazards such as potholes, and it can handle rough terrain. It also is less likely that other drivers will try to push you around and overtake you if you are in a larger vehicle. This will also be suitable if you are traveling with a large group or you have a lot of luggage with you.

The speed limit in Harare can vary depending on the type of road you’re on. For example, speed limits on highways can get up to 120 km/h (75 mph) and on narrow rural roads it can be up to 80 km/h (50 mph). In urban areas, the speed limit can be anywhere from 40 to 80 km/h (25 to 50 mph) depending on the specific location. Always be aware of posted speed limit signs to avoid trouble with traffic authorities and ensure the safety of yourself and other drivers.
