Luxury Car Rental in Sassari

Sassari is Sardinia's most patrician city: capital of the north-west, home to one of Italy's oldest universities, with arcaded streets made for the evening passeggiata and a Piazza d'Italia that remains one of the island's most elegant urban drawing rooms. People don't come here for the beach — they come to work, to attend a conference, to celebrate a wedding in the Logudoro, to meet the Sardinia that lives twelve months a year. And it is precisely in this setting that a serious sedan or a grand tourer speaks the right language: arriving in Piazza d'Italia in the appropriate car is a matter of register, not of display.

Then there is the geography, which works entirely in your favour: Sassari is the natural centre of gravity of the north-west. Alghero and its Coral Riviera are half an hour away, Stintino and Castelsardo only a little further, and the pine-backed beach of Platamona — where the Sassaresi themselves swim — a quarter of an hour from the centre. Guests staying in the city for business or family use the car to steal an hour of sea in the late afternoon, a dinner on the coast, a Sunday in the Anglona. Within our fleet of more than 100 models and 150+ versions there is the right car for every one of those registers.

Alghero Fertilia Airport is 30 km away: roughly 35 minutes along the SS291 della Nurra, the fast, regular road that links the airport to the city. You can collect the car right at the terminal when you land, or have it delivered in Sassari — at your hotel, outside your company's offices, at your front door or at an event venue. Our WhatsApp concierge agrees the meeting point and time with you, prepares the paperwork in advance and stays at your side for the whole rental; alternatively, there is the enquiry form on our site.

We serve 27 destinations and 3 airports across Sardinia, so an itinerary that begins in Sassari and ends in Olbia or Cagliari can be arranged within the same conversation. For business trips, ceremonies and photo shoots, delivery by appointment is the formula most requested in the city. Requirements and conditions are provided at the quotation stage — and if you would like a sense of things before writing to us, you will find everything in our guide to the requirements for renting a luxury car in Italy.

Start in the centre: Piazza d'Italia with the neoclassical Palazzo della Provincia, then down the corso to the Cathedral of San Nicola, whose Baroque facade looks carved from spun sugar. Drop down to the Fontana di Rosello, a late-Renaissance jewel in its little valley, and give an hour to the Museo Nazionale Sanna to understand the Nuragic civilisation before you meet its sites in the landscape. Time it right and the calendar does the rest: the Cavalcata Sarda in May brings the costumes of the whole island into town, while on 14 August the Faradda di li Candareri — UNESCO-listed — turns the corso into a river of people escorting the great wooden candlesticks of the city's guilds.

Behind the wheel, two main axes. The SS291 della Nurra points towards Alghero across flat, fast farmland: halfway along, the detour to Lake Baratz — Sardinia's only natural lake — and the copper-coloured sand of Porto Ferro is well worth it. The SS200 dell'Anglona drops instead towards Sorso and the Platamona pine forest, then follows the Gulf of Asinara all the way to Castelsardo: sea on your left, wheat-covered hills on your right, a succession of views that catches fire at sunset. A third option for lovers of the Romanesque: fifteen minutes towards Codrongianos and the two-tone basilica of Santissima Trinità di Saccargia rises straight ahead of your windscreen.

If Sassari is your base for covering the whole quadrant, the rational choice is clear: the Audi RS6 Avant Performance brings together a family's worth of luggage, all-wheel drive for any surface and a level of thrust that turns the SS291 into a pleasure. For the institutional register — board meetings, formal dinners, guests to collect from the airport — a Porsche Panamera pairs presence and comfort without ever raising its voice.

For ceremonies and celebrations, from a graduation toasted under the arcades to a wedding on a Logudoro estate, the Mercedes-AMG range offers sedans and coupés that photograph beautifully and travel even better. Whatever the occasion, the route is the same: message our WhatsApp concierge or complete the enquiry form and check availability for your dates.
