You can also take advantage of our affordable price range of luxury models with an average age of only three months. Explore the stunning landscapes of New Zealand in a 4x4 tailored to its hilly country roads or cruise the city streets in a convertible to soak up the sun in style.
We offer a wide variety of car models to choose from, including hatchbacks and city runarounds. We also carry MPVs for larger groups and families, as well as sports and luxury vehicles to enjoy New Zealand in style. With SIXT, you can be sure to be provided with top quality manufacturers like BMW, Audi and Mercedes. Book from one-day car hires up to long-term hire for extended stays. Remember that add-ons such as child seats and sat navs are available to make your car hire in New Zealand as comfortable and hassle-free as possible.
There are many unique and exciting cities around New Zealand waiting to be discovered when you arrange car hire in New Zealand, and the winter season might just be the best time to do it. Queensland offers some of the best skiing spots in the world. Alternatively, the Franz Josef Glacier is the place to go for winter hikes, ice climbing and guided helicopter tours. Cap it all off with a dip in one of its three hot glacier pools for an experience to remember.
In New Zealand the minimum age of car hire is 21 years old for most vehicles, and there’s no requirements on how long you’ve held your licence for.
If you are ending the journey at a different SIXT branch in New Zealand select the location during booking – this may induce tariffs and is dependent on availability.
It is recommended you seek an International Driving Permit before your trip and your valid licence must be matched with the credit card used to make the booking.
We know that any journey is subject to change so if you decide to ‘pay later’ during booking cancellation is free any time.
You can include child seats, extra divers, as well as protection packages and added miles to your booking at very price-friendly costs.
In New Zealand people drive on the left side of the road. Also be aware of any stop signs and be sure to stop accordingly.
