Avanza vs Innova
Comparison of the two most popular rental vehicles in Jogja
Families of six who book with us almost always ask the same thing: Avanza or Innova? The honest answer depends entirely on your route. If you are staying around Jogja city — Malioboro, Prambanan, the usual spots — the Avanza handles it perfectly and saves you IDR 100-150k per day. The comfort gap barely matters on short drives. But the moment your itinerary includes Dieng, Semarang, or a multi-day south coast run, the Innova earns every extra rupiah. That three-hour winding climb to Dieng is where you really feel the difference: Innova passengers doze off comfortably in the back row, while Avanza third-row riders start counting the minutes after the first hour.
