Sunrise Freedom Extras
Everyone’s hire is unique and so these are charged in addition:
Road User Charges - See Road User Charges section below.
Road User Charges (RUCs)
Anyone using New Zealand’s roads contributes towards their upkeep. Most road users pay levies when they buy fuel. Others, including drivers of diesel vehicles, pay through Road User Charges (RUC). You can read more about this on the New Zealand government's NZTA website. All Sunrise vehicles use diesel and therefore RUC apply.
We charge $300 at the start of your hire to cover up to 4000km of RUC. Anything over 4000km, we will charge out at the current govt rates. If you travel under 4000km, we will refund the difference back to you.
Your Road User Charges will be calculated at the end of your hire from your final odometer reading.
We will confirm your final odometer reading and total kilometres travelled when you return your vehicle.
Sunrise Rates:
Based on current government rates, usually around $8 per 100km.
