The Toyota Innova is the step-up choice in the Car Rental Labuan Bajo fleet: a 6-7 seat MPV that genuinely carries five adults plus their luggage, with enough torque and ground clearance for the climbing, winding roads inland toward Ruteng and Bajawa. As of 2026, indicative pricing starts from roughly USD 31-50 per day depending on model year, transmission, season and whether fuel is included. Like every unit in our fleet, the Innova is supplied with a driver as standard — that is the working norm in Labuan Bajo, not an upsell.
Car Rental Labuan Bajo is operated under Komodo Luxury, part of Juara Holding Group, operating from Bali across Indonesia since 2015. Quotes are issued per itinerary because a half-day town run and a three-day overland loop to Bajawa are not the same job for the same car.
Who is the Toyota Innova actually for?
Choose the Innova when the smaller MPV class stops making sense. It is the right call if you are a family of four to six with full-size suitcases, a group of five adults who do not want to travel with bags on their laps, or anyone planning a one to two day run out of Labuan Bajo on roads where surface quality varies from newly paved to patched and potholed.
If you are two or three people staying inside Labuan Bajo town — hotel, harbour, restaurants, a morning at the airport — the Toyota Avanza is usually the more sensible spend. If your group is eight or more, or you are moving a full boat manifest with dive gear, look at the Toyota Hiace instead. The Innova sits precisely between those two, and that middle is where most Flores itineraries land.
What are the Toyota Innova specifications and luggage capacity?
Exact specification depends on the model year of the unit assigned to your booking — the Kijang Innova has run through several generations and, more recently, the Innova Zenix. What holds across the range is the practical envelope below.
| Item | Typical figure (indicative) |
|---|---|
| Seating | 6-7 seats across three rows |
| Realistic comfort load | 5 adults + luggage, or 6-7 for short town hops |
| Engine | Petrol or diesel, roughly 2.0-2.4L class depending on unit |
| Transmission | Manual or automatic — state your preference when booking |
| Luggage with third row folded | Approx. 3-4 large suitcases plus daypacks |
| Luggage with all three rows in use | Approx. 2 medium cases plus soft bags |
| Air conditioning | Front and rear blowers on most units |
The honest trade-off: seven seats and seven people’s luggage do not coexist in any MPV of this size. If all three rows are occupied for a multi-day trip, tell us in advance — we will either recommend the Hiace or arrange a roof arrangement or second vehicle rather than let you discover the problem at 6am on departure day.
Why does the Innova suit Ruteng and Bajawa runs?
The Trans-Flores road east of Labuan Bajo climbs steadily. Between Labuan Bajo and Ruteng you are looking at several hours of continuous curves and gradient; continuing to Bajawa adds more of the same. Road condition as of 2026 is mixed — long stretches are in good shape, other sections are under repair or degraded by rainy-season runoff, and this changes month to month.
In that environment the Innova earns its price gap over the small-MPV class in three ways: torque that does not run out on long climbs with a full cabin, suspension travel and ground clearance that absorb broken surfaces instead of transmitting them, and a body that stays composed enough that passengers in the second row can actually sleep. For a single day of town-to-airport work none of that matters much. For a two-day overland it matters a great deal, which is why the Innova is our default recommendation for Flores overland itineraries.
What does “with driver” include?
Every Innova booking comes with a driver who knows the routes, the fuel stops, and the realistic timing between points — which is the part most first-time visitors underestimate. The with-driver standard covers vehicle, driver, and driver’s meals and accommodation on overnight trips unless we agree otherwise in writing.
Fuel and tolls are quoted either included or excluded — we will state which on your quote, so there is no ambiguity at the end of the trip. Parking and entrance fees at attractions are normally on the guest. Self-drive is not offered on this class; if you need a vehicle without a driver, say so and we will tell you plainly what is and is not possible rather than take a booking we cannot honour.
How do you book, step by step?
- Message us on WhatsApp with your dates, number of passengers, luggage count, and rough route.
- We confirm vehicle availability and flag anything in your plan that does not fit the hours in a day — this is the most useful step, and it is free.
- You receive a written quote in USD stating exactly what is included: hours per day, fuel treatment, driver arrangements, overtime rate.
- Confirm and pay the agreed deposit. We then send driver contact details ahead of pickup.
- Pickup at Komodo Airport, your hotel, or the harbour, as arranged.
How much does a Toyota Innova cost per day?
As a 2026 indicative range, expect from approximately USD 31-50 per day for a standard daily hire with driver. The spread reflects model year, automatic versus manual, high season versus low, whether fuel sits inside or outside the rate, and the distance profile of your route — a day spent inside Labuan Bajo costs less to run than a day of mountain driving to Bajawa.
Pricing disclaimer: figures above are indicative only, not a published tariff. Fuel prices, seasonal demand and route difficulty all move the number. Your binding rate is the one on your written quote.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Toyota Innova available with an automatic transmission?
Both manual and automatic units exist in the Labuan Bajo market. Automatic availability is tighter, especially in peak months, so state your preference at enquiry rather than at pickup and we will confirm what we can actually secure for your dates.
Can the Innova handle the road to Wae Rebo or Bajawa?
For the sealed Trans-Flores sections toward Ruteng and Bajawa, yes — this is exactly the vehicle’s use case. For the final rough access tracks to some villages, we will advise honestly whether the Innova should take you to the trailhead and stop there, which is often the correct answer.
How many days should I budget for a Ruteng or Bajawa trip?
Ruteng is comfortable as an overnight; Bajawa realistically wants two nights unless you enjoy spending your holiday in a seat. We would rather talk you into an extra night than sell you a schedule that fails.
Is airport pickup at Komodo Airport included?
Airport pickup can be built into a daily hire or booked as a standalone transfer. Send your flight number when you enquire so the driver can track arrival time.
