Overall, I received a relatively new and clean car, which was quite good. However, when I picked up the car, the range showed 875 kilometers. That morning, I filled it up in central Christchurch, and by the time I returned the car at the drop-off location, the range left was 901 kilometers. When fully fueled, the range was 915 kilometers. The store staff told me at pick-up that the fuel level was only at 90%, and I could return the car with more than 90%. Yet, at return, the store staff claimed the fuel wasn’t full and charged me 50 NZD, which was ridiculous. The car itself was decent, but this kind of sneaky charge left a very bad impression.

The waiting time was a bit long

AVIS's service is user-friendly, convenient, and efficient, perfectly matching our expectations. Highly recommended and will be our top choice for future trips.

I paid for insurance and spent an entire precious travel day fixing the car. Returned the car in perfect condition, taking responsibility to ensure it could be rented out immediately without delays. Labor and materials are extremely expensive in New Zealand, with repair costs reaching 2500 RMB. Avis cars are also very expensive compared to others. In the end, there wasn't even an explanation or thank you. So, why did I pay for your insurance? Such companies will face consequences! At the very least, I paid for insurance! Even if you don't refund anything, at least return my insurance money! I hope Zuzuche (the rental platform) penalizes Avis for being an untrustworthy company!

The process of picking up the car at Christchurch Airport was quick and efficient. The car was new and performed well without any issues during the 15 days of driving. Pleasant experience! When returning the car in Picton, I didn't know about the drop key box method and couldn't pay the rental fee in cash as intended, had to use a credit card instead. Hence, couldn't use up the New Zealand dollars I had exchanged. Picton, being a key hub between the North and South Islands, should have continuous on-site staff like in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch.
