QEEQ's confirmation order provides detailed information in both Chinese and English. It even includes instructions in both languages on how to respond to sales pitches for insurance and how to handle traffic accidents. QEEQ is extraordinarily considerate.

The receptionist of Indian origin had the attitude of a state-owned store clerk from the 80s, constantly pressuring me to buy insurance. After I informed him that I had already purchased full coverage, he reluctantly let me sign the contract. Only after signing did he tell me that the reserved Prado had been replaced with a Ford Everest! The performance is nowhere near comparable to the Prado!

For short-term rentals, I recommend upgrading to an electric vehicle for a great driving experience! They also offer a charging service at a rate of 0.8 per kilowatt-hour, which is fairly acceptable.
