Christchurch City car hire in golden February light
The Avon River glows gold under the late afternoon sun, and the evenings stretch out warm and long. February is prime time in the Garden City, with locals picnicking in Hagley Park and the Port Hills turning that burnt amber colour only deep summer brings. Finding a Christchurch City car rental right now means moving quickly, because the lots are thin.
Ezi is the single supplier holding inventory for the week of February 8 through February 15, with a median price of $1641.50 for the seven nights. The cheapest deal sits at $1029 for an Intermediate, while the spread between the lowest and highest vehicle reaches a factor of 1.78. A smart booker grabs that base deal immediately, because six vehicles will not last long in this heat.
The fleet on the list is almost entirely hybrid, which is perfect for fuel economy on long South Island drives. Most cars have five seats, so if you are hauling camping gear or extra passengers, lock in the Toyota Highlander for the extra space. The roads around Canterbury are dry and clear this month, so you do not need all-wheel drive unless you plan to head high into the mountains.
