Spring in Perth is a magical time. The weather is mild, wildflowers bloom across the countryside, and the coast beckons with crystal-clear waters. It’s the perfect season to pack your bags, gather your friends or family, and head out on a road trip. But what’s the best car to hire for your spring adventures? The right choice depends on where you’re going, who you’re travelling with, and the type of experience you want.
At Burswood Car Rentals, we’ve got a fleet designed to suit every type of spring getaway. Here’s a guide to help you choose the ideal rental car for your spring road trip from Perth.
1. Compact Cars – Perfect for Coastal Escapes
Heading to Cottesloe Beach, Lancelin, or Mandurah for a relaxing spring getaway? A compact car is fuel-efficient, easy to park, and great for solo travellers or couples. With minimal traffic stress and low running costs, it’s the smart choice for city-to-coast drives.

2. SUVs – Ideal for Scenic Drives and National Parks
Spring is peak season for wildflower viewing and hiking trails. If you’re planning to explore John Forrest National Park, Yanchep, or the Pinnacles Desert, an SUV offers extra comfort, more luggage space, and a smoother drive over varied terrain.

3. People Movers – For Group Adventures
Travelling with a group of friends to see the Margaret River wine region or heading down south to Albany or Denmark? A people mover keeps everyone together, saves money on multiple rentals, and makes the journey more fun. With plenty of space for bags, picnic baskets, and wine purchases, it’s the ultimate spring road trip car.
4. Premium Sedans – Stylish Comfort for Couples or Business Travelers
Sometimes road trips are about more than just the destination—they’re about the drive. A premium sedan is perfect for a spring getaway to Swan Valley wineries or Rottnest Island ferry terminals, offering smooth handling and extra style.
