1️⃣ Significant Price Advantage
This store has a high overall rating and reasonable prices. Compared to similar international chain brands, the cost is about one-third, offering excellent value for money.
2️⃣ Smooth Communication with Chinese-Speaking Staff
Most staff are Chinese, making communication very easy. They explain important details when you pick up the car, including whether you have insurance, how to handle minor scratches, and traffic rules. The process is transparent, and there's no pushy sales tactics regarding insurance, resulting in a great experience.
【Points to Note】
1️⃣ It's Recommended to Prepare a Local New Zealand SIM Card
After arriving at the airport, you need to contact them to arrange a shuttle bus. The shuttle won't wait at the airport indefinitely; you need to call them proactively. Not having a local phone number can be inconvenient.
2️⃣ Store Operating Hours
The shuttle bus last operates around 5:30 PM. The store is open from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. It's recommended to pick up your car during opening hours to avoid missing the shuttle.
3️⃣ High Vehicle Mileage
The vehicles are relatively old and have high mileage; for example, the vehicle I drove this time had approximately 170,000 kilometers on it. If you are very concerned about the vehicle's condition, I suggest inquiring beforehand. However, in actual driving, the vehicle was in good condition and, with normal use, it's perfectly capable of traveling several hundred to several thousand kilometers as a self-driving vehicle in New Zealand.
Overall, if you have a limited budget, are looking for high cost-effectiveness, and want easy communication in Chinese, this company is a viable option.
