Exiting Kuopio Airport:
Located approximately 14 kilometers north of Kuopio city center, the airport is easily accessible via Route 9 (E63), a primary artery connecting Kuopio with other significant Finnish locales.

Road Conditions:
Finnish roads, including those around Kuopio, are well-maintained. However, the region is known for its long, snowy winters. Winter tires are mandatory between December to February, and if you're traveling during this period, it's essential to be familiar with winter driving conditions.

EV Charging:
Finland is progressively leaning towards sustainable driving. You'll find several EV charging stations in Kuopio and its vicinity. If you opt for an electric vehicle, you'll be well-supported throughout your journey.

Weather and Car Choice:
Kuopio's chilly winters demand vehicles equipped for snowy conditions. An SUV or a car with 4-wheel drive is ideal during winter months. Conversely, during summer, a compact car might be more suitable for solo travelers or couples, offering better fuel efficiency.

Optional Extras:
Consider add-ons like GPS for easier navigation or child seats if traveling with family. Rhinocarhire provides a range of optional extras tailored to enhance your driving experience.

Exploring Kuopio and its picturesque surroundings by car ensures you don't miss out on any of its hidden gems. Rhinocarhire, with its ethos of customer-first, guarantees a journey as delightful as the destination.
