A compact car will certainly provide a smooth and pleasant experience when driving in Katowice. Despite the streets being mostly very broad in the city, finding a parking spot can still be a challenge and is more easily done with a smaller car. Gas prices are also more expensive in Europe, and a smaller car will need less. Remember that stick shifts are still mostly used here, so renting an automatic car may cost more.
