Penang Car Rental Mini Guide

Located on the northwest coast next to Strait of Malacca, Penang is a separate state within Malaysia. With a rental car you can see much of the fascinating culture of the southeast Asian country. Indeed, many people come to Penang on their way through Malaysia to the famous Thailand island of Koh Phan Nang.

We recommend prebooking your car rental inadvance to make sure you receive the vehicle you require at the abolute best price and if you are hiring a car in Malaysia for the first time, we recommend reading our Drive Smart Malaysia guide to ensure you know the rules of the road and can drive safely in and around Penang.
