Question 3

Is it a good idea to hire a car in Auckland

Accepted Answer

Renting a car in Auckland can be a good idea depending on your travel needs and preferences. If you plan to explore areas outside the city or need the flexibility of having your own vehicle, then hiring a car might be beneficial. However, consider the cost, traffic conditions, and availability of public transportation, as in some cities it may be more convenient and cost-effective to use public transit or ride-sharing services. Always check the local driving laws and ensure you're comfortable with the driving conditions before deciding to hire a car.

Question 4

Do I need to return the vehicle with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

The Thrifty fuel policy you select in Auckland will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.
