The route

Nha Trang — Cam Ranh — Phan Rang (about 105 km) — Phan Thiet and Mui Ne (about 220 km) — Ho Chi Minh City. Most of it is a toll expressway with 90–120 km/h limits. All distances and times are approximate.

Rental terms

Trips outside the province need a $400 deposit: $200 back at return, $200 a month later (camera fines from other provinces arrive late). 250 km per day adds up: a 4-day return trip gives 1,000 km, plenty.

Which car

For the long highway — the Hyundai Kona, Hyundai Creta or 2024 Mitsubishi Xforce; for families — the 7-seat Mitsubishi Xpander.

How much are the tolls?

It depends on the section; we deduct exactly what was charged from the deposit.

Can I do it in an EV?

Yes, there are VinFast stations along the way, but a petrol car is easier for this distance.
