Premium Saloon or Full Size SUV

Hello all,

I am going with my significant other for three weeks in July. We have booked the premium saloon class as a wee upgrade from full size that we had last year.

However I am tempted to rent a bigger car and was looking at a full size suv. What would people recommend for two adults doing driving to the parks, Clearwater Kennedy space Center etc? I’m not looking for massive amount of bells and whistles but would love cooled seats, car play etc? Am I more likely to get this with full size suv rather than a premium saloon?

Tia

Personally for two, I would stick with the car. Much more comfortable.
We rent a Full Size SUV now as we need the space and by and large they are junk. They serve a purpose and a have some gadgets but that's about it.

Excellent thank you for replying It would be an extra £100 to upgrade to the full size suv so I was swaying towards just keeping premium saloon car.

I like the saloon - there are only 2 of us and we normally take an SUV - it is easier with luggage - on road trips we normally have 3 or 4 cases but can manage with saloon with back seat.
Main reason for SUV - high driving position - and much better visibility with all the SUV/Trucks on the road - but that's road trip driving when easily covering more than 2000 miles. Driving around Orlando area it's not so bad.
