Haha, just in considersation nia, dunnoe there gt what slopes to manuever around. I might just get 1200cc for the comfort as well.

Elephant hill still okok la.
not only for uphills but downhill too, bigger car will have better brakes. big cars also better for cruising on highway.

does kei car comes with auto-cruise?

so far, Honda Freed (2018 model), Mazda2, Mitsubishi Colt, no auto-cruise

K-cars like Hustler, Every, no

mayb only sedans & higher end cars have

Does Toyota rent a car requires a refundable security deposit during car collection? It's not mentioned anywhere. As I'm planning to pay using youtrip, will need to load more value if they do charge.

have not rented from Toyota before

but previous times rented with several other companies in Hokkaido n Tokyo, did not need security deposit

it is required, I wld rather NOT pay Deposit with YouTrip (or any other stored value card), but with a regular CC

(only in Perth Aust, car rental collected deposit ... which I DID NOT pay with YouTrip)

Any reason why? Cos of the long refund period? I actually did so when renting in Perth with no birds. Took about 3 days to receive the refund. Just nice on my last day there.

yes exactly

the money is actually deducted, and you wld be exposed

unlike using CC, it is just a hold

From my experience renting with Toyota when i was in kawaguichiko, they did not ask for any deposit.

Rented 3 times from Toyota rent a car. Sapporo, Kawaguchi-go and Kanazawa. Never had to pay any deposit. You only pay for the rental fees when collecting the car, and ETC fees if any when returning the car.

for my period, Jalan still more expensive compared to renting direct, even after 10k :cautious:

even for Hotels, some i booked direct with Hotel, and even Rakuten JP were cheaper.

can share the booking link ?

may consider 1 + 8 HiAce for my Oct trip ;)
I book from Car Rental Hokkaido. https://www.toyotarentacar.net/english/. So far there are a couple of Hiace rental. But this one response the fastest since they can communicate thru whatsapp/LINE.

Btw, they need IDP Class D. May i know this is equal to what class of driving license? My uncle have Class 2B/3/4.
