• By entering your email address into our Price Drop Alert, you’ll know all the best deals for your desired destination;
• Research is the key to getting your hands on the best rental bargains in town, so be sure to look into both airport and non-airport pickup and drop-off outlets before you book your ride;
• If your vacation is somewhat flexible, modify your dates to find cheaper prices on different days of the week;
• Try to keep your pickup and drop-off times as similar as possible. If you return your car at a later time than you picked it up, you may be charged a full extra day;
• Sometimes car rental outlets offer big incentives to pay right away, so be sure to watch out for these penny-pinching deals;
• Don’t let the deal you want slip through your fingers. Book as soon as you can and drive away with your dream ride.

From rocky coastlines to shingle seashores and sandy shores, Taranaki has some striking natural wonders. Why not get out and enjoy one or two of them? Leave town and set out on some excursions. An SUV is ideal for those longer drives. With an ability to take on all types of terrain, these larger vehicles make it easy to go off the beaten track.

You’re spoiled for choice when it comes to rental cars in Taranaki. From SUVs with trunk space galore to zippy compacts that make parking a cinch, you’ll find it all here. Choosing your ride depends on how much you’d like to spend and where you plan to go. There are some road trips that are just begging you to splurge on your dream ride, whereas others don’t need more than four wheels and a gas pedal. What type of car will it be this time?

In Taranaki, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. This means the driver’s seat is on the right side. If you’ve rented a manual transmission car, you’ll be changing gears with your left hand.

Generally speaking, your chosen rental car company will bill the fined amount to your credit card, including local taxes. Alternatively, they may supply your contact details to the relevant local authority, who’ll then issue a fine directly to you.
