When a sedan is enough
Tbilisi, Mtskheta, Kakheti, Borjomi and main highways often work with a standard sedan in warm season.
When to choose a crossover
Kazbegi, winter trips, families with luggage and weather-sensitive routes are more comfortable in a crossover.
When you need 4x4
Svaneti, Tusheti, dirt-road detours, snow and remote locations require 4x4 or local transfer.

Do I need 4x4 for Kazbegi?
Not always, but in winter and bad weather a crossover or 4x4 gives more safety margin. For Gergeti, a local 4x4 taxi is easier.
What should families rent?
A crossover is usually better: higher seating, more luggage space and more comfort on uneven roads.
