Plovdiv is an ancient city that has narrow roads, so a compact car is suggested for exploring. For instance, a Citroen C3 is great for navigating the streets and also for parking. If you want to take your vehicle out to the Bulgarian countryside then you might want something a bit more robust. For example, a Dacia Sandero Stepway offers better handling than other cars and is also suited to rough terrain and steep gradients.
