The Volkswagen Quantum: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no Volkswagen Quantum for sale by us right now. Before you buy the Volkswagen Quantum, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

A buyer's checks

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Specs, explained

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

What the Quantum is like

As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back.

Good uses for the Quantum

It suits people who want car handling with extra load space. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Drive it on your own roads

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the Quantum first, and buy only if it fits your life.

The cost of driving it

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Narrowing it down

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Still deciding?

Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Volkswagen Quantum from us first.

Buying the Volkswagen Quantum

Does CarmaCars sell the Volkswagen Quantum?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Volkswagen Quantum before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
