Super fun to drive, felt solid and safe on the winter roads, and the 4WD gave us a lot of confidence. Couldn’t find a better way to explore New Zealand.

Collection and returning the car was straight forward and super easy. The condition was excellent and we had no problems driving all around the South Island.
Mohd I. · Singapore
The Jimny had everything we needed and was so easy to open up and pack up. 10/10 would recommend. We’re coming back to do it again for sure!
