Toyota Commuter FAQ
How much does it cost to rent a Toyota Commuter?
Prices vary by your dates and trip length; the all-in total for your dates is shown when you search. Every rate includes cover, with the deductible shown before you book.
Will I get the exact Toyota Commuter?
For most classes you book a category and get this car or a similar one. A few come as the exact model – the Kia EV6, MG ZS EV, Tesla Model 3, Polestar 2, Cupra Born, Suzuki Jimny, GWM Tank 300 and the mine-spec HiLux – and that's noted on the car.
What does "or similar" mean?
You book a category, not one exact car. You'll get the model shown or another car of the same class and transmission - sometimes a newer or larger one at no extra cost. It's how rental fleets keep prices down; the class and transmission always match what you booked.
Is the Toyota Commuter automatic?
This one is automatic. The transmission is shown on every car and confirmed before you book.
How old do I need to be to rent it?
Twenty-one for most cars, and 25 for our electric, premium and elite cars and the 12-seater. Drivers under 25 pay a young-driver surcharge of $16.50 a day.
What's the deductible, and is there a deposit?
The deductible - the most you'd owe if the car is damaged or stolen - is $5,500 or $6,600 by class, shown before you book, and you can reduce it to $550, $1,000 or $0 with a higher cover tier. A separate A$1,000 bond is held, not charged, on your card at pickup and released after return. With zero deductible there's no bond, just a card check of under $1 (for tolls) - so bring the card whichever cover you choose.
How many kilometers are included with the Toyota Commuter?
This 12-seater is capped at 200 km a day, with extra kilometers at $0.33/km; most other cars have unlimited kilometers.
Where can I pick up a Toyota Commuter?
At the pickup cities listed on this page (Adelaide, Brisbane, Cairns, Darwin, Gold Coast, Hobart…); your exact pickup point is shown when you search.
Can I drive the Toyota Commuter on unsealed roads?
No. Like all our cars - including the 4WDs and utes - it's for sealed roads only. Driving on gravel, beaches, above the snow line or off-road can void your cover, so tell us your route and we'll confirm it fits.
When am I charged?
Not when you request. We confirm the car with the supplier first and only then take payment; if we can't confirm, the hold is released.
