Driving in Tasmania

Looking to book a luxury or sports car with Overdrive?

You will see roads categorised as A, B or C when planning your itinerary.
·      A roads = major sealed highways
·      B roads = secondary sealed roads
·      C roads = often unsealed


Some unsealed roads require extra care. 

Be aware that Overdrive Rental Agreements contain special conditions in relation to unsealed roads. Do not use Overdrive cars on roads other than A, B, and C roads. Do not drive convertibles on C roads with the top open or windows down.

During the winter months, and occasionally spring, highland roads can be icy and snow is possible. Please take the usual safety precautions and, if in doubt, discuss the driving conditions with us.

Never driven an EV before? 

If this is your first time driving an electric car, our team is on hand to guide you through the process. 

From the ins and outs of the technologically advanced Tesla to planning an itinerary that includes charging stops when you need them, we take pleasure in helping you make the most of your EV experience.

Perhaps you are considering buying a Tesla, MACH-E, or other electric vehicle? When you rent one of our EV fleet cars for a few days, you get an extended test-drive – getting to know the car and how it might fit your lifestyle.

The pick up was only about 100 metres from our Hotel in Hobart. Information about booking the car, the pre-checking system before pick up made life so easy. The gentleman at the desk was very clear and precise with his instructions and provided a map for our Airport drop off for 12 days later. The detailer answered all the questions about the Skoda we hired.

Easy to pick up and drop off at Hobart airport. Best deal I could find for a 3 week hire. The smallest of the MG's was nippy and easy to drive with good all round visibility. Definitely use these guys again provided they stay priced under the big boys.

I gave this rating because the car was easy to pick up at the airport and easy to drop off, we had no problems with the car, the car was economical, easy to drive ,very clean when we picked it up. The only thing as I spoke to Drive car rentals, renters should be advised that there is an emergency button which dials ooo inside the car for your assistance in an emergency

Drive Car Hire was an excellent experience. We hired a car for 2 weeks, and for the usual circuit of Tassie. The car was great. In good condition. Clean. Well suited to our needs. The actual hiring process was also seamless. All done electronically, from scanning drivers licenses to deposit payment (all before we got there. from Perth). Pick up was an automated process, as was drop off at the airport. We rate this car hire company highly. Thank you.
