For driving in Kristiansund, it is highly recommended to hire an all-wheel-drive (AWD) vehicle, particularly during the winter months when the roads can be icy and snowy. AWD vehicles, such as SUVs, provide better traction and stability compared to two-wheel drive (2WD) cars when navigating steep and winding roads or when driving on unpaved surfaces. Additionally, an AWD vehicle can handle the hilly landscape and the sometimes unpredictable weather conditions in the area.
