The 2012 Ford Explorer in plain words
This page sets out the 2012 Ford Explorer: powertrains, fuel use and Canadian trims.
What the figures tell you
Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow. The automatic gearbox makes city traffic easy.
The combined figure, 10.4 L/100 km, means roughly 31 litres for 300 km. Around town it is rated at 11.9 L/100 km; on the highway, 8.6. A 300 km weekend costs about $48.36 in energy at our price setting.
Who rents the Explorer
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
What to expect from the Explorer
It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.
Trips in the Explorer
Each car shows the kilometres included each day and the rate for extra ones. Plan longer trips against the kilometres included each day. Return the car with the same fuel it had at pickup.
Renting it
Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Driver basics
An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more are the starting point. If you are under 26, expect a young driver fee each day; there is no upper age limit. Your licence and the card you paid with come with you to the pickup.
Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car, you choose one of three options before pickup. The deposit amount depends on the car and is shown on its page. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.
Booking in plain terms
Every booking starts as a request: the car, the dates and where you want it. Nothing is charged to send one. A real person reviews your request and sends an offer with the price spelled out. Pay when you approve, not a minute before.
Each car shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. Weekly pricing starts at 7 days, and a trip never costs more than that rate for a week. The shortest notice we accept before a pickup is 2 hours.
Your move
The next step is yours: send a request whenever you are ready.
