Go Rentals, owned by Kiwi, said in a statement that it will open a branch in the terminal at Nelson Airport in November. The new site is part of the company’s growth strategy by investing more in the South Island.
Go Rentals will provide a fleet chosen for optimum driving in the South Island where its average distance per rental by an overseas visitor is approximately 1,400km per rental. Rental options will include the Tesla Model 3, as well as a range of SUVs and 4×4 vehicles to meet customers’ travel needs, according to the statement.
“We are delighted to welcome Go Rentals as a full partner of Nelson Airport,” said Mark Thompson, CEO of Nelson Airport. “Go Rentals will play an important role in bringing travel back to New Zealand as we welcome back international and domestic travellers. With Nelson’s population growing and tourism in the region soaring, we are delighted to be able to offer a greater selection of car rental options for people wishing to explore the beauty of the South Island.
“Nelson is a key gateway to surrounding areas like Abel Tasman, Golden Bay and other breathtaking locations in the South Island,” added James Dalglish, COO of Go Rentals.
The Go Rentals app allows users to check in, pick up and drop off their car faster by skipping the line, creating a seamless experience. Being in the terminal is an added benefit for Go customers. Go Rentals will be taking bookings at the new branch from March 25 for travel from November 1.
