Toll roads like the AP-7 require payment.
There are no emissions zones in Malaga, but tolls apply on the AP-7 highway. Tolls can be paid by cash or card. Check your car hire agreement for toll pass options.
Parking your car in Málaga
Parking in Malaga is limited and regulated.
Parking in Malaga’s city centre is often restricted to residents or requires payment. Look for multi-storey car parks or hotel parking. Avoid yellow and blue zones without a permit.
Finding fuel or charging points
Fuel is easy to find; EV charging is growing.
Petrol stations are common in Malaga. For electric vehicles, use PlugShare to locate EV charging stations. Most chargers are in public car parks or shopping centres.
Local driving style and tips
Driving is busy in some areas, especially near the centre.
Expect roundabouts, pedestrian crossings and occasional congestion during peak hours. Speed limits are enforced, particularly in urban zones where cameras are in use. Take your time in older areas with narrower streets.
