We were there last month (3/2015). They drive on the right side of the road. I saw a car rental place right in town but don't know what they cost. If I were you, I'd take a small group or private tour. The tour guides have so much information to offer. We took private tours and LOVED it. I had read a lot on Easter Island and guides had so much more to offer that no book ever told me. Have a good trip!
