Is there any need to rent an SUV on Grand Cayman Island? - Frustrated female driver in white t shirt and jeans sitting on ground near damaged car with hands on head during car travel in sunny summer day

As per my cell phone question I will be on Grand Cayman Island next year for vacation. I will be renting a car while I am there, but is there any reason to rent something like a Jeep as opposed to renting a normal sedan. Or in other words is there anywhere on the island that I'd want to go as a tourist where having a sedan would stop me?

Or is being able to put the top down the only benefit of a Jeep?
