The roads in Dijon and nearby areas are well suited to all vehicles, so your choice of car depends mostly on your needs. Because of the green zones, if you're prepared to pay a little extra, consider hiring a hybrid vehicle to offset the additional charges and do your part for the environment. If you're alone or with one other person, a smaller car is always easier to navigate through the city streets, and it's also easier to find parking for smaller cars. Those travelling in larger groups might want to choose an SUV, which is popular for many visitors.

The speed limits in Dijon are the same as all around France and should be noted regardless of where you're driving. In the city and other built-up areas, stick to 50 km/h or under. The standard speed limit on normal roads outside of built-up areas is 80 km/h, while the standard speed limit on dual carriageways is 110 km/h. If you're driving your car on a French motorway, the speed limit is 130 km/h on a normal day and 110 km/h in the rain.

Finding on-street parking can be tricky in Dijon and it's unlikely that you'll find any free parking. On-street parking is governed by parking meters, and you'll generally need to pay per hour. There is a free on-street parking zone in the city called the green zone, but parking is limited. Black zones are non-parking zones, so avoid those areas. The yellow zone is on-street parking that's paid and has a limit of 8h 30min, while the red zone is also paid on-street parking but only allows a maximum of 2 hours.
