About the 2008 Dodge Nitro
Here are the 2008 Dodge Nitro's figures, in numbers and in words.
What the figures tell you
Its 3.7L 6-cylinder drives through a 6-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference. It has a manual gearbox, so you need to be comfortable with a clutch.
At 12.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 37 litres of fuel. It uses 14.7 L/100 km in the city and 10.7 on the highway, by its rating. Expect about $19.22 per 100 km at our price setting.
Longer drives
Plan longer trips against the kilometres included each day. A long weekend away is easy to price with the figures on this page. Return the car with the fuel it had at pickup, or a fee applies.
Who the Nitro suits
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
How big it is
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
Can you rent one?
We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Tell us your dates and we check this car or the closest match. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What you need to rent
At pickup you must be 18 or older and carry your original G2 or G licence. No maximum age, and a daily fee only for drivers under 26. We need to see the card and the licence of the person renting.
Three options cover damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your auto policy, a credit card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. A deposit is held for every rental, about 1 hour before you get the car. We check every driver; it takes a few minutes and protects everyone.
From request to keys
Every rental begins with a request from you. It costs nothing and it does not hold the car. You get an offer that says exactly what the rental costs before tax. Nothing is charged until you approve it and pay.
Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. Bookings run from one day up to 365 days at a time. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.
One more step
The quickest way to a price is a request with your dates. It costs nothing.
