Mazda Demio Rental
Mazda Demio 2012–2014
The Mazda Demio is our most affordable rental car in New Zealand — compact, automatic, fuel-efficient and easy to drive in Auckland or Christchurch traffic.
From
$29 / day

Looking for the cheapest car rental in New Zealand? Our Mazda Demio is it. A nimble 5-seat hatchback with auto transmission and great fuel economy, it's the perfect choice for solo travellers, couples or anyone who just needs a reliable cheap rental to get around. Available from both our Auckland and Christchurch depots from $29/day all-inclusive.
It's compact enough to park anywhere around Auckland or Christchurch, light on fuel (around 7L/100km), and proven reliable — these are the 2012–2014 models, all fully serviced between rentals. For city breaks and shorter trips it's hard to beat the value.
Auto transmission, light steering, great visibility — even nervous drivers feel comfortable in the Demio. It comfortably seats four adults (five at a squeeze) and fits one large suitcase plus carry-on in the boot.
City rentals in Auckland or Christchurch. Short weekend trips. Solo travellers and couples on a budget. Backpackers who want a real car instead of a campervan. Anyone doing a one-way North–South Island trip on a tight budget.
Live pricing and availability — only a 20% deposit to book.
It's fine for shorter trips and one-way journeys, but for a full North or South Island loop with luggage we'd suggest the Nissan Note (Economy) or Mitsubishi Outlander (SUV) for the extra comfort and boot space.
