What you get

Built to fix your gaps, not to repeat what you already know.

Free apps show you random questions. KiwiDrive tracks every answer and keeps the pressure on the ones you keep missing.

Your mistakes come back

Get a question wrong and it returns in a later test, marked ↻ Retry, until you get it right. Nothing slips through.

Retries sit alongside new questions in your next tests, so you keep moving through the bank while the gaps close. Every past test stays in your review, with the right answer beside yours.

  • Each answer locks and is marked straight away, with the right answer shown

Made for the learner, and for whoever's helping.

Most people get to the theory test with a parent, a sibling or a mate somewhere in the background. KiwiDrive fits in with that.

  • The free sample needs no sign-up, so anyone can see the format first.
  • The review of wrong answers makes a handy quiz for the passenger seat.
  • One email address is the account. Buy again and the new tests are added to it.

It depends on the pack you choose: 10 or 20 tests (prices are shown above). Each one is a full practice test: 35 questions, timed like the real test. A test counts as used when you start it. Need more? Buy any pack again with the same email address and the new tests are added to your account, with your progress carried over.

Do tests expire?

No. There's no time limit and no subscription: use your tests whenever you like. Your dashboard and the review of your past tests stay available even after you've used them all.

Can I get a refund?

What devices does it work on?

Any recent phone, tablet or computer with a web browser. On a phone you can add it to your home screen so it opens like an app (see the tips below). Tests need an internet connection.

Is this the official NZTA test?

No. KiwiDrive is an unofficial practice tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or produced by NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi. Book and sit your real test through NZTA. Practising here can't guarantee a pass.
