Searching for SUVs and Crossovers

The white form is preset to search for SUV and crossover vehicles in the 'Christchurch - Airport' rental office. Address: Christchurch Airport Terminal, Po Box 14015, Christchurch, Christchurch, New Zealand.

In Christchurch, we offer vehicles at 2 different rental locations (see the links below). Normally, the best SUV rental offers in New Zealand are provided by offices located in airports and train stations.

We recommend the following principle for selection of an off-road model for trips in New Zealand: if your planned routes are mainly within a city borders – a small crossover, while if the routes go through countryside or mountain regions – a large and powerful off-road 4x4 car.

Christchurch, New Zealand: SUV and Offroad Rental Tips
The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Christchurch are: Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sportage, Jeep Wrangler, Nissan Pathfinder 4WD, Suzuki Jimny, Toyota Landcruiser and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in New Zealand ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in New Zealand are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Christchurch!

Driving Advices for New Zealand – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
Several simple hints can help psychologically adjust to the new traffic conditions within a couple of days. First of all, you should remember that the driver’s right hand should be approximately at the center of the road, and the rear-view mirror is on the left. Cars that move on the right have the advantage on local roads.
The quality of roads in New Zealand remains at a high level, and numerous informational boards will make the ride even more pleasant. Only in remote parts of the country it is possible to see low quality roads, but there are only a few of them.
Foreign drivers should note that it is simply not possible to drive fast on the roads of New Zealand – the majority of roads in the country have numerous turns and are laid on mostly hilly terrain. When you start a ride, you shouldn’t expect reaching your place of destination in the shortest time possible. It is simply impossible to do that on the roads of New Zealand.
