Travel with Purpose – Leave Only a Legacy
At RentX, we believe car hire should do more than move you from A to B – it should move us all toward a better future. That’s why we created Drive Eco: to help travellers explore Aotearoa sustainably, support native reforestation, and honour the values of the Tiaki Promise.
By choosing a low or no-emission vehicle and planting a native tree through our Zealandia partnership, your journey becomes a powerful act of connection and care.
Whether you’re here for a weekend escape or an epic road trip, Drive Eco makes it easy to tread lightly, give back, and drive with intention.

Your Carbon Free Journey Starts Here
This is more than just a car rental – it’s a chance to show your commitment to the Tiaki Promise and care and care for the people, land, and culture of New Zealand.
Every Tree Tells a Story – Let Yours Begin Here
After planting your tree, take a photo, and share your moment with us. Each image becomes part of our Planting Count – a living record of travellers helping to regenerate New Zealand’s native eco-systems.
Every shared story inspires others to follow in your footsteps – driving not just across the country, but toward a cleaner, more connected future.

Care of Aotearoa – Now and for Future Generations
The Tiaki Promise is a commitment to act as a guardian of New Zealand’s land, people, and culture. When you travel with RentX, you’re upholding this promise — respecting the environment, supporting local communities, and leaving places better than you found them.
We’re proud to be a part of this national movement for responsible tourism — and invite every RentX traveller to join us in keeping Aotearoa thriving for generations to come.
