Is electric car hire available across Byron Bay?
Yes. We have cars available across Byron Bay and surrounding areas, including Bangalow, Mullumbimby, Brunswick Heads, Suffolk Park, Lennox Head, Ballina, and Newrybar. We can also arrange airport delivery and pickup at Ballina Byron Gateway Airport (Ballina Byron Gateway Airport).
How are your prices calculated?
The cost to hire one of our vehicles is down to each host. Our prices are based on distance and what the host selects and may include additions such as car delivery or pickup, child seat rental, and other accessories.
Are there any additional fees that I need to be aware of?
We make our entire booking process as simple as possible. There are no booking fees, credit card surcharges, membership fees, or any other hidden fees charged as part of the booking. Rental insurance amounts are already factored into the amounts that the hosts advertise.
There are circumstances where you may incur additional costs separate from the booking fee. Circumstances include exceeding the distance paid for, tollway and Supercharger costs, or if the vehicle is returned in a poor state.
Is there a limit on the distance I can use my car for?
Our hosts will make it clear whether there are limitations on distance as part of their listing. As with the price, this differs from host to host. Some listings may come with unlimited kilometres, so check each listing if this is something you require.
If there is a stated daily allowance and your booking is for more than one day, the limit becomes accumulative rather than daily. For example, if you hire a car for three days and there is a daily allowance of 200 kilometres, you will have 600 kilometres to work with over the entire duration of your rental period.
Do I need to register an account to hire a vehicle?
Yes, you need to register with us before hiring a vehicle. We will need your:
- Name
- date of birth
- driver’s licence number
- Stripe ID verification. As part of this, you will need to upload a photo of yourself to verify your identity.
Fortunately, the process is simple and straightforward, only taking minutes. You can browse our Byron Bay electric car rental selection to determine availability before registering with us.
