As the roads can be bumpy and in rather poor condition, it is advised to opt for an average-priced car instead of a sports car. A common car will also fit in with the other vehicles better, making you less conspicuous as a tourist. Remember that stick shifts are still commonly used in Brazil and an automatic car will most likely cost more.

Speed limits are given in kilometers per hour in Brasilia and permit 30 km/h (18 mph) in residential areas, 60 km/h (37 mph) on arterial city roads, and up to 110 km/h (68 mph) on highways. Speed limit signs are given on the right-hand side of the road and must be followed. If the weather or road conditions require it, slow down accordingly.

Petrol is measured in liters in Brazil and one liter costs around R$4.40, which is $1.13 USD (so a gallon would be $4.52 USD). Try to use petrol stations with well-known names like Shell or Ale rather than small local ones, as they have a reputation for mixing the fuel with water to stretch it. Self-service is prohibited in Brazil, so an attendant will fill the tank for you. Also bear in mind that the common way to pay in most stations is by cash, not card.

There is on-street parking commonly available in Brasilia; simply check the signs nearby for details. However, it is recommended to leave the car in a paid parking lot if parking for a longer period of time, as the car is insured against theft in most of them and security is in place. Available parking lots include the Brasilia Lot or Park da Cidade.
