While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Taihape?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ between rental companies, so be sure to read through your policy.

In Taihape, get ready to drive on the left-hand side. This is obviously different from driving in the U.S, so be aware and pay extra attention when you're behind the steering wheel.

Where can I find a Taihape car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Taihape rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, be mindful that some will charge additional costs. It's better to know this ahead of time so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
