This was easily the smoothest and easiest experience I have had with a rental company. The car I rented (a Toyota Spade) came very clean and drove so smoothly. You can tell a lot of care goes into maintaining these vehicles, or at least the one I drove. It also came with an ETC that made driving the toll roads effortless. I feel so bad I cannot remember the name of the man who I met but he was so incredibly kind and accommodating. Although I have been practicing speaking Japanese his English is very good so there is no issue if you do not speak Japanese. Lastly the price was so affordable for me as a student/teacher, especially compared to other rentals. Thank you so much for making the process affordable and easy, I look forward to renting from you again!(by Dom)
THE BEST EXPERIENCE!!! I rent a car for one month, as an international foreigner, and would highly recommend Asahi Motors. The were the best price I could find in Japan and had amazing service. The delivered and picked up the car from my hotel. Allowed for last minute changed. Gave me a free upgrade to a higher class car. Were incredibly fast to respond. They made the whole process very easy. If I ever need to rent a car in Japan again I will be using them again. The best car rental service I have ever used world wide!(by Cody McManus)

Communication was smooth and stress-free.” “When I had a car accident, they provided 24-hour support in English. I felt very safe knowing help was always available.”
