If you’re looking for cheap car hire in Napier, you’re in luck, because an economical compact car is all you need to see the local sights and enjoy short road trips to close by towns, like Gisborne (approximately 214 km away), or longer trips, like the winding Pacific Highway route to Auckland (approximately 695 km away). If you’re travelling in a large group, bringing a lot of gear with you or simply enjoy having a lot of space, an SUV or minivan will provide the extra legroom and storage space you’re looking for.
When you’re within the city limits of Napier or nearby Hastings, New Zealand’s urban speed limit of 50 km/h will apply, unless otherwise signed. Once you venture out to the more rural areas, such as State Highway 5 taking you from Napier to Rotorua, the speed limit is generally 100 km/h. Of course, wherever you are, it’s important to look out for speed signs, as New Zealand has plenty of winding roads and other features that necessitate lower speeds.
It’s important to pay attention to signage when parking in Napier, as there is often a fee, a time limit or both, particularly in the CBD.
