Our New Zealand rental car range

Choosing the right car for your self-drive touring experience is essential. You'll want to make sure that the vehicle has enough room for your luggage and all the extra items you will inevitably accumulate as you travel and also be the most suitable car type based on where you will be venturing.
The information below offers a quick overview of what to expect for a specific category of vehicle. Our team of New Zealand touring holiday specialists can give you great advice on car categories if you are unfamiliar with the models in NZ. They can also answer all your questions about insurance coverage and any other requirements to drive in New Zealand. See our guide here for driving tips.

Perhaps you have a special request for your holiday transport? New Zealand is a very scenic country and travelling around in a coupe may be something you've always dreamed of! If so, get in touch and we can help you organise something to set your travels apart from the rest.
