The segments of standard, intermediate and full-size cars in Indonesia traditionally include the following vehicles: Renault Scenic, Toyota Camry, Toyota Avensis, Hyundai Sonata, Nissan Primera, Mercedes C Class and others.
The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Yogyakarta borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Yogyakarta might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Yogyakarta!
Rental process FAQ
Foreign drivers should also not forget that at different time of the day traffic can be arranged in different ways in the same town. Do not be surprised if in the morning some street has one-way traffic, and in the evening vehicles will move in both directions. The fact that there are usually no warning and information signs on such roads only makes the situation more complicated.
In general, road signs are extremely rare on Indonesian roads. In remote areas of the country, they are mostly not present at all. Many traffic signs contradict with each other, so drivers shouldn’t fully rely on them.
Motorists should not forget about basic precautions. If you leave the car even for a few minutes, make sure you take all valuable items with you. In popular tourist areas, theft from vehicles is one of the most common crimes.
