How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ruakura?
Ruakura rules state drivers must be 21 and above to be able to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and some choice restrictions. Most providers impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the usual rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Ruakura?
While requirements may differ between outlets, the two key things you'll need are your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of alternative coverage may be required.
What side of the road do you drive on in Ruakura?
In Ruakura, like all of New Zealand, you drive on the left. Take things slow to build up confidence driving on the left if it's your first time.

Where can I find a Ruakura car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Ruakura outlets will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so be prepared to do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some outlets will apply a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
