Your choice of car hire in Gisborne comes down to personal preference and your plans for your stay. As Gisborne Airport is so close by to Gisborne city, there’s no long stretch of road between picking up your hire car and reaching your accommodation. However, if you are staying in or planning to visit other areas that take a journey, or camping or hiking, you may want to select a 4WD or SUV over a compact vehicle. Either way, it might be a good idea to make sure you are booking a vehicle with a navigation system, to help you avoid getting lost on your travels.
Speed limits vary across New Zealand and change frequently during any journey, so be aware and pay attention to the speed limit signs to make sure you are following the laws. Most urban or city areas will have a speed limit of 50 km/h unless otherwise signed, whereas rural roads can be 70 km/h, 80 km/h or 100 km/h. There are some highways in New Zealand that instead have a maximum speed limit of 110 km/h. Unmarked police vehicles and speed cameras are common in New Zealand, so it is essential that you keep your eye on the limits.
