Melbourne - Great Ocean Road - Twelve Apostles

First of all, the location is very easy to find, right across the street. When we arrived, we were informed that the Camry we booked was unavailable and were given a CHR instead. At the Hertz store, the types of cars are clearly labeled, with the Camry being a full-size vehicle and the CHR being a small-size SUV, yet they used the word 'upgrade' for this change. Upgrade?? The rear space was ridiculously small, the view was extremely limited due to the window design, and the trunk was so small it could only fit two carry-on bags and two backpacks. The Camry has a 2.5L engine, but we got a small 1.2T car, and they call that an upgrade? I had prepaid the full amount; why was there no car for me when I arrived? Shouldn't there have been a reserved car for me? The car was in good condition, with adaptive cruise control and auto hold, so it was likely a 2018-2019 model. However, the noise from the wind and tires was very loud, making the ride much less comfortable (I can compare as I drove a Camry in Sydney). Returning the car was easy, just follow the navigation, which was nice. Overall, I was quite dissatisfied as I chose Hertz for its good reputation in the car rental industry. Quite disappointed.

Easy pickup, even easier dropoff, and great car condition!

Quick.

We booked a Camry, but had to choose based on what was available. They tried to give us a lower-quality SUV. Eventually, they gave us a Mitsubishi SUV.

The attitude was good, it was the model I booked, just over 20,000 kilometers. Supplementary full insurance was purchased from QEEQ at ¥201/day, while at the Hertz counter, it costs AUD 32/day, still more appropriate to buy at the counter. Toll fees were charged to the credit card after returning the car, with Hertz charging a service fee. Added a second driver when picking up the car, costing AUD 5/day, and the second driver’s credit card could be used for deposit and payment.
