Thanks to its border location, Herceg Novi makes it relatively easy to find vehicles imported from the EU. The local offer covers all segments, but small city cars are especially common, as they suit the narrow streets and steep drives typical of seaside settlements. The market is active throughout the year, with the expected seasonal fluctuations.
Popular models in Herceg Novi include Fiat Panda, Renault Twingo, VW Up and Hyundai i10, as well as compact SUV models such as Suzuki Vitara and Dacia Duster. Buyers on the coast often choose automatic transmissions because of frequent driving uphill and downhill, where an automatic gearbox makes driving easier.
The coastal climate and proximity to the sea mean that vehicles in Herceg Novi are more likely to suffer corrosion on the lower body and metal suspension components. When buying, check the condition of the sills, engine mounts and brake lines. The air conditioning is used intensively during the warmer part of the year — check the cooling system’s efficiency and the date of the last cabin filter replacement.
Because of the border proximity and easier access to the markets of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the supply of imported vehicles in Herceg Novi has traditionally been good. Look for customs and registration documents to avoid unpleasant surprises.
Narrow coastal streets, steep drives and a limited number of parking spaces make small cars a practical choice. Lower fuel consumption and easier manoeuvring are additional reasons for their success.
For many drivers in the Bay of Kotor, an automatic gearbox makes everyday driving through frequent climbs easier. Keep in mind somewhat higher fuel consumption and potentially more expensive servicing compared with manual gearboxes.
