A security deposit is required for car rentals in Turin. The rental companies will block a certain amount on your credit card. The deposit amount depends on the rental period, car class, and insurance excess and can range from 500 to 1000 EUR.
To save money on car rental in Turin, consider renting for 6-7 days or longer. The cheapest car rental option in Turin is often available with Sixt, which regularly offers special rates and promotions.
Keep in mind that winter tires are not usually provided by default in Italy. Therefore, if you plan to drive in cold weather or in mountainous areas, remind the rental company to provide winter tires and snow chains (note that this may increase the car rental price in Turin by 10-15%).
In Turin, there are three parking zones: the central zone (the most expensive, around 3 EUR or more per hour), the adjacent zone (around 2 EUR per hour), and the discounted zone (around 1.5 EUR per hour). Free parking spaces are marked with white lines, paid parking spaces with blue lines, and parking is not allowed in yellow-marked areas (reserved for commercial vehicles or disabled parking).
