You have a pretty free hand when it comes to Scarborough car hire options. The road surfaces are good, so make your decision based on the size of your party. You won't need much more than a small city car if you're alone; otherwise, a saloon will do you fine. Families and larger groups should look at something like an MPV or even a minibus. One small thing to mention is that the roads can get icy in some winters, so you might want to get something with more traction, like a 2x4. And don't hesitate if you'd rather hire an electric vehicle, as there are rapid EV charging stations in the main Scarborough car park.

On dual carriageways and motorways, you can increase your speed to up to 70 mph. Watch out for signs where the speed limit drops to 20 mph in certain parts of the city, especially in the vicinity of schools.
