Toyota Rush

The Toyota Rush is another great option for travelers in Costa Rica who want a reliable, compact, and comfortable vehicle for exploring both urban and off-road destinations. This 4x4 or all-wheel-drive (AWD) compact SUV is popular among tourists who need a vehicle with a little more space than a subcompact but still want excellent performance on Costa Rica's varied terrain.

Key Features of the Toyota Rush

1. 4x4/All-Wheel Drive (AWD): Many Toyota Rush rentals come with AWD, which makes it capable of handling rough roads, dirt tracks, and rainy season conditions in Costa Rica.
2. Compact and Agile: It is slightly larger than smaller SUVs like the Suzuki Jimny, offering more comfort and space, but still compact enough for easy navigation through narrow roads, especially in cities like San José.
3. Fuel Efficiency: The Toyota Rush is relatively fuel-efficient for its size, making it a cost-effective option for long drives across the country.
4. Comfortable Interior: With seating for up to 7 people in some models, it’s ideal for families or groups. The rear seats may be tight for adults, but it’s a great option for smaller children or additional luggage.
5. Cargo Space: Offers decent cargo capacity, although the space can be limited if all the seats are in use.
