About the Toyota Prius

The Toyota Prius first went on sale in Japan in 1997 and was the first mass-produced hybrid vehicle. Its name is a Latin word meaning first or original, and with more than 5 million sold by 2022, it is the world's best-selling hybrid car.

For an economy car rental in Auckland, that adds up to a five-seat hybrid with 2WD and room for up to two bags. It suits business travellers and couples who want a quiet, economical car for city driving and longer trips.

Toyota Prius features

What each feature means for your Auckland trip.

Hybrid Electric Engine

The Prius pairs a petrol engine with an electric motor, so it can move quietly at low speeds and use less fuel in city traffic. It is the hybrid that started it all, and it remains a smooth, easy car to drive.

Fuel Efficient

Very low fuel use keeps running costs down, whether you are driving to meetings across town or heading out of Auckland for the day. Fewer stops at the pump leave more time for the trip itself.

Automatic Transmission

Every car in our Auckland fleet is automatic, so the Prius is simple to drive at every level of experience. There is no clutch to manage in city traffic or on Auckland's hills, which makes your first drive on New Zealand roads far easier.

Quiet and Comfortable

A refined, hushed cabin makes the Prius relaxing for everyone on board. Calls, conversation and music are easy to enjoy, and longer drives feel less tiring.

Eco-Friendly Drive

Hybrid power reduces fuel use and emissions, helping lower the carbon footprint of your trip without giving up comfort. A drive along the waterfront feels all the better when you are travelling more lightly.

Apple CarPlay

Connect your iPhone to use your own maps, music and calls on the car's screen. It makes finding meetings, hotels and restaurants around Auckland simple, with hands-free calls on the way.

Smooth City Cruiser

The Prius glides smoothly through central Auckland, making easy work of city traffic and appointments across town. Its calm, easy manner suits travellers who spend most of their time in the city.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to rent the Toyota Prius?

The Toyota Prius starts from $145 per day, including GST. Insurance cover, optional extras and any one-way fee are added separately, and your emailed quote shows the full total before you pay. Promotional rates are subject to fluctuations based on seasonal demand.

How many people and bags fit in the Prius?

The Prius seats five and takes up to two bags. If you are travelling with more luggage, compare the Toyota Corolla Station Wagon, which takes up to three bags, or one of our mid-size SUVs, which take up to four.

Is the Prius 4WD, and what fuel does it use?

No. The Prius is 2WD with a petrol hybrid powertrain. It suits sealed city streets and highway trips, and like every rental vehicle it must stay on formed roads under our rental terms.

Can you deliver the Prius to the airport or my hotel?

Yes. We offer 24/7 pick-up and drop-off across Auckland, including the airport, the city centre and your accommodation. Add your preferred locations and times in the booking form, and any delivery fee will be shown in your quote.

What do I need when I collect the car?

Bring a valid driver licence for every driver. The security bond is charged before or at pick-up, and the amount depends on the cover you choose.

How do I book the Toyota Prius?

Enter your pick-up location and dates in the booking form above, then add your contact details. The team checks availability and emails your quote with the total price, bond and payment steps. Your booking is confirmed once payment is received in full, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
