In La Rochelle you will most likely be best served by a modern city car, both to deal with the traffic that can get very busy and to navigate the narrow streets of the Old Town. You can be more extravagant if you’re intending to spend most of your time exploring the surround tourist attractions, then an MPV or SUV will be well suited to the task, or a saloon car if you prefer. So take your own planned schedule into account when making your choice of car hire in La Rochelle.
Pay close attention to the speed limits in La Rochelle, as they change according to the weather conditions. In the built-up areas of town the limit is 50km/h (roughly 30mph) regardless of the weather. On other roads you can travel at 90km/h (about 55mph) but this drops to 80km/h (just under 50 mph) when it rains, and to 50km/h (30mph) if visibility is less than 50 metres (around 55 yards).
The most convenient free car park close to the city centre is the one on Chemin des Remparts. From there you can take a bus into town, or walk just over half a mile yourself. Paid parking in the very centre of town can be found at the Parking Old West Port car park or Parking La Rochelle. Prices tend to average out at around €1 per hour (about £0.86).

Pros:
The car was an electric one with very limited mileage, the staff then offered me a super expensive alternative which i had to decline and changed my plans... I could not even cancel the order on the booking page...Cons:
