Car Hire Choices For Town, Coast And Countryside

Set between the River Teign and the edge of Dartmoor, Newton Abbot is a town with quick access to both coast and countryside. The A380 links directly to Torbay's resorts, while the A38 carries drivers north and west across the moor. With this variety of routes, every car in the fleet has a clear role to play, from short town errands to longer scenic drives.

Compact cars like the Fiat 500 are ideal for weaving through Newton Abbot's historic centre and parking near landmarks such as the Clock Tower. The VW Golf offers reliability for runs to seaside towns like Dawlish or Teignmouth.

For families or shoppers, the Focus Estate or Mondeo Estate has space for larger loads, whether visiting Decoy Country Park or the weekly Newton Abbot market. Automatic models such as the Hyundai i10 Auto or Focus Auto make light work of traffic on the A380 and local routes toward Bovey Tracey or Kingsteignton.

The Mondeo in manual or auto is built for longer trips, from heading down the A38 to Plymouth to countryside tours towards Totnes. SUVs such as the RAV4 Auto or Range Rover are well suited to rural lanes and moorland drives, handling rugged tracks near Haytor and Widecombe with ease.

Luxury choices including the Mercedes C Class Auto and E Class Auto provide comfort for business travel or evenings at Newton Abbot's Alexandra Theatre, while also making coastal drives towards Paignton or Torquay feel refined and effortless.
