Honda rental in Almaty: 8 Rent-Trip models — from a city sedan to a family minivan
Honda is a brand that we at Rent-Trip value for its durability and unpretentiousness to the Almaty climate. The fleet has 8 models: from the city Accord 2016 from 24,990 ₸/day to the Odyssey 2021 minivan for a large family.
Why Honda is the workhorse of Almaty car rental
Honda is valued in rental for engine longevity and its unpretentiousness to climate — from winter subzero temperatures to the summer heat of Almaty. We break down why this brand handles the load of a rental fleet.
Longevity and reliability of Honda in Almaty conditions
Honda R and K series engines reliably run 300–400 thousand km with regular maintenance — that's why cars of this brand in rental go in for unscheduled repairs less often. The naturally aspirated R20 and K24 engines in the Accord and CR-V have no turbo and no high-pressure injectors sensitive to fuel quality, which works in their favor at Almaty filling stations. Honda automatic transmissions are designed for the city start-stop mode and handle traffic jams on Al-Farabi Avenue with ease. The suspension of the CR-V and Accord handles broken-up sections after winter — control arms and stabilizer links are replaced less often than on European classmates. In our experience, Honda cars cover 6–8 thousand km per month and stay on the maintenance schedule without downtime. In Almaty, the main enemy of longevity is not mileage but short city trips and winter warm-ups; keep an eye on the oil change interval if you take the car for a month.
How Honda behaves in the mountains and in city traffic
Honda CR-V crossovers confidently take the winding roads to Medeu and Shymbulak, while the Civic and Accord sedans are more economical in city traffic on the avenues and in traffic jams. The 2021 CR-V with all-wheel drive and 208 mm ground clearance makes the climb to the high-mountain skating rink and on to Shymbulak without scraping its underside on the speed bumps near Medeu. The 2019 Civic with a 1.8-liter engine uses about 8 liters per hundred in the city — versus 11–12 for the crossover in the same mode. The 2016 Accord and 2021 Accord on the highway to the Charyn Canyon hold 110–120 km/h steadily, without wandering on the ruts. On the climb to Shymbulak in winter, what matters more than ground clearance is winter tires and working brakes — check the trim before a mountain trip. Sergek cameras record speeding on the winding roads, where the limit drops to 40–50 km/h — factor that into your trip plan.
Honda lineup in the Rent-Trip fleet: 8 cars for different needs
The Rent-Trip fleet has 8 Honda models in three classes — SUVs, Comfort and Minivans; all with automatic transmission.
All 8 Honda models at Rent-Trip: classes, body types and prices
| Model | Class | Body | Transmission | Price from, ₸/day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Honda Accord 2016 | Comfort | Sedan | Automatic | 24,990 |
| Honda Civic 2019 | Comfort | Sedan | Automatic | 26,990 |
| Honda Accord 2021 | Comfort | Sedan | Automatic | 30,990 |
| Honda CR-V 2016 | SUVs | Crossover | Automatic | 33,990 |
| Honda CR-V 2021 | SUVs | Crossover | Automatic | 42,990 |
| Honda Odyssey 2016 | Minivans | Minivan | Automatic | 47,990 |
| Honda Stepwgn 2019 | Minivans | Minivan | Automatic | 59,990 |
| Honda Odyssey 2021 | Minivans | Minivan | Automatic | 59,990 |
The price difference between an older and a newer version of the same model — for example, the 2016 Accord and the 2021 Accord — is not an overpayment for "newness" but a different service life and trim.
Honda sedans: 2019 Civic and 2016/2021 Accord — what to choose
We have the 2019 Civic from 26,990 ₸ — a nimble sedan for the city, while the 2016 Accord from 24,990 ₸ and the 2021 Accord from 30,990 ₸ are more spacious and comfortable for long routes and business trips. The Civic is 15 cm shorter in length, easier to park in the alleys near the Golden Quarter and in the underground parking lots of shopping malls. The Accord gives more room for rear passengers and a 470-liter trunk — for a laptop, a case or two suitcases for a business trip. The 2021 Accord got better sound insulation and uses about 7 liters on the highway, whereas the 2016 Accord in the same mode comes out at 8.5–9. The 2016 Accord is the most affordable car in the selection, but if you're planning many highway kilometers, the newer 2021 Accord offsets the price difference with better sound insulation and fuel consumption.
Honda minivans: Odyssey and Stepwgn for family and groups
We have two Honda minivans — the 2016 Odyssey from 47,990 ₸, the 2021 Odyssey and the 2019 Stepwgn from 59,990 ₸/day, each designed for 7–8 seats with a full-size trunk. The 2021 Odyssey with eight seats and sliding doors is convenient when kids are getting in at the parking lot near Medeu — no need to push heavy doors. The 2019 Stepwgn with a high roof and flat cabin floor takes strollers, scooters and suitcases on a long trip to Kolsai Lake. The 2016 Odyssey is a compromise option: the same class, but 12,000 ₸ per day cheaper with a similar cabin volume. The Stepwgn with a high roof is more convenient for carrying strollers and large luggage, while the 2021 Odyssey wins on comfort on long routes like Kolsai.
Honda rental prices: from 24,990 ₸/day and what affects the rate
Honda rental at Rent-Trip starts from 24,990 ₸/day and depends on the model, year of manufacture and booking period.
How much Honda rental costs in Almaty: the spread across models
We have Honda rental in Almaty from 24,990 ₸/day for the 2016 Honda Accord up to 59,990 ₸/day for the Honda Odyssey 2021 and Stepwgn 2019 minivans. Between these poles are the 2019 Civic from 26,990 ₸, the 2021 Accord from 30,990 ₸, the 2016 CR-V from 33,990 ₸ and the 2021 CR-V from 42,990 ₸. The 35,000 ₸ spread is explained not by a "markup" but by the difference in class, year and trim: an all-wheel-drive crossover costs more than a sedan, an eight-seat minivan more than a crossover. Payment is accepted via Kaspi and Halyk, and we issue the receipt and contract on the spot. The most affordable options — the 2016 Accord, 2019 Civic and 2021 Accord — cover most city needs; paying extra for a crossover or minivan is justified only for a specific route.
What affects the price: duration, class and year of manufacture
For a period of a week or more, our price is lower than the daily rate — we quote the exact amount on WhatsApp, and the final rate is affected by the car's class, year of manufacture and season. In high season — New Year holidays, Nauryz, the summer months — there are fewer available cars, and it's worth booking 5–7 days in advance. The difference between the 2016 Honda CR-V and the 2021 CR-V of 9,000 ₸ per day is a different year, mileage and trim: a newer crossover with cameras and multimedia versus a base version. If you take the 2021 Honda CR-V for 3 days, the daily rate comes out higher than for a week-long booking — budget in advance for the length of your route. For long trips across Kazakhstan and travel to Kyrgyzstan, we coordinate the route separately at booking.
