Driving in Cagliari: What to expect on the road

Documents you'll need
You’ll need your driving licence, passport and a credit card to rent a car in Cagliari.
Most visitors can use their regular driving licence. You may need an International Driving Permit (IDP) if your licence isn’t in English. Rental companies also require matching ID and a credit card when you collect your car.
Navigating city driving
Cagliari has clear signs and a mix of coastal and hillside roads.
Driving in the centre can feel busy, with narrow lanes near historic areas. Roads to Poetto Beach and the port are simple to follow. Navigation apps help you avoid steep streets and guide you to main routes.
Tolls, emissions zones and charges
There are no toll roads on Sardinia, including around Cagliari.
Cagliari has limited-traffic zones in the old town, shown by ZTL signs. These areas restrict access during certain hours. Outside the centre, all main routes are free to use.
Parking your car in Cagliari
Parking is easier near the waterfront than in the old town.
Street spaces are common along main roads, while central areas can be crowded. Car parks near Via Roma give easy access to shops and cafés. Check signposts for time limits in summer.
Finding fuel or charging points
Fuel is easy to find, and EV charging stations in Cagliari are increasing.
Petrol stations sit along major roads and near shopping areas. Charging points are growing around the port and newer districts. Apps like PlugShare help you check real-time availability.
Local driving style and tips
Drivers are steady, but older streets can feel tight.
Traffic flows smoothly on coastal roads, while lanes near Castello are narrow with sharp turns. Scooters often pass between cars, so keep a steady speed and take care when merging onto smaller streets.
