DeKalb is a city that experiences all four seasons and has a mix of urban and rural driving conditions. Therefore, a mid-size SUV or crossover would be an ideal choice for a DeKalb car rental. These types of vehicles offer a combination of passenger and cargo space, fuel efficiency, and versatility in different driving conditions. An SUV or crossover provides better visibility and handling on rural roads, while also being able to handle snowy or icy conditions in the winter.
