The most popular SUV for rental all the major Thai airports is the 7 seater Toyota Fortuner, It has 2 folding rear seats that if used will limit luggage space. The 7 seater has the advantage in that it will work out cheaper than renting 2 cars if travelling in a group or a large family. The other 7 seater option on most Thai fleets is the Toyota Innova which is more of a minivan.
Car rental is available from all Thai airports, including both Bangkok airports Don Muang (DMK ) and Suvarnabhumi Airport BKK airports.
The 7 seater or people carrier category will be more expensive than the mid-size or full size car, but you are getting more seats. One good thing about car rental in Thailand is that you will find the cost of fuel very cheap in comparison to any European country
