Times Car Rental
Times is a well-established car rental company in Japan, founded in 1965. As a local car hire provider backed by a large corporation, Times offers a vast network of over 466 locations nationwide, including major airports and railway stations. With a fleet of more than 20,000 vehicles, the company is known for its affordability, efficiency, and accessibility, making it a top choice for both domestic and international travelers looking for reliable car hire options across Japan.
Times places a strong emphasis on customer service and operational reliability. All vehicles undergo regular maintenance checks to ensure safety and performance. For the convenience of international travelers, Times provides English-language maps to help locate return stations and nearby gas stations, as well as access to an English-speaking customer service center. Additionally, its focus on fuel-efficient cars helps reduce travel costs while supporting environmentally conscious car rental choices.
As a regional leader in the Japanese car hire market, Times combines the trustworthiness of a large company with the convenience of a widespread local presence. While the brand primarily serves Japan, which may limit cross-border booking options for those planning multi-country trips, its extensive domestic coverage ensures a seamless rental experience within Japan.

The vehicle is brand new and has a spacious rear. We managed to fit two 28-inch suitcases, a 20-inch suitcase, and a large handbag perfectly. The staff explained everything very clearly and were extremely polite! The rental company processed our order quickly without any extra charges! We're very satisfied with their service attitude! This experience added so much enjoyment and comfort to our trip!
