Your sustainable travel companion
Self-charging hybrid vehicles recharge their electric battery while you’re driving through a process called regenerating braking. When you slow down or brake, the kinetic energy produced is converted into electricity, which is used to charge the battery when you start up again. These cars also use some power from the engine to self-charge. Hybrid vehicles have better fuel efficiency — and thus, cheaper fuel costs and fewer emissions, helping you save energy overall. All these benefits make a hybrid vehicle a great car rental to travel in!

Frequently asked questions
Are there any restrictions on where I can drive the hybrid rental?
There are no restrictions on where you can use hybrid rentals. However, they might not be as suitable for areas where 4-wheel drive vehicles are recommended, such as snowy, mountainous paths.
Where can I charge the vehicle?
Since the Toyota Aqua is a self-charging vehicle, not a plug-in hybrid, you don’t need to charge it at a charging station.
How does insurance work with hybrid car rental?
Insurance on our car rental hybrid vehicles is the same as for our other cars – we offer the cheapest car insurance excess waiver rates in New Zealand!
Are hybrid cars suitable for long distances?
While hybrid cars are more fuel-efficient for slower speeds, they can handle long distances just fine, making them a suitable vehicle choice for longer road trips.
How do I charge a hybrid car, and do I need to?
While there are many free and paid charging stations across New Zealand, you won’t need to manually charge your hybrid car rental since it self-charges through the engine and kinetic energy.
