Should you rent a van or an SUV in NYC?

Is a 7-passenger SUV or a van rental in Brooklyn the best option for your upcoming trip? For a bustling city like NYC, an SUV rental can often be better due to its versatility, maneuverability, and all-wheel or 4-wheel drive capabilities.

However, if you’re traveling with a larger group or need the space, a van is more practical and still gets decent gas mileage, especially when compared to multiple vehicle rentals.
