Choosing a colour

The colour is part of what we confirm in the offer. A blue car can be requested, but never promised before we confirm. Want blue? Put it in the request.

Engine and fuel

The powertrain here is the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo with rear-wheel drive and a 10-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Rated at 9.9 L/100 km combined, it needs around 30 litres for a 300 km round trip. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $15.35.

When the Explorer makes sense

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

The Explorer in everyday use

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.

In our fleet

This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer.

Requirements

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more are the starting point. If any driver is under 26, a young driver fee is added for each day. Cars marked "no credit card needed" accept a debit card in your name; the others need a credit card.

Damage to the car is handled one of three ways: OPCF 27 on your policy, a credit card's rental car benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Each car shows its deposit, and we take it about 1 hour before pickup. Each renter is checked the same way, before the booking is confirmed.

How booking works

Choose the car and your times, then send a request. A request does not hold the car, and it costs nothing. If the car is free, you get an offer with the full price; if not, we suggest another car. If the offer works for you, approve and pay to confirm. If not, you owe nothing.

Rates are set car by car and shown on each car's page. Longer trips cost less a day: the weekly rate starts at 7 days. Requests for later the same day work when there are at least 2 hours to spare.

Your move

Ready? Request the car. If you change your mind before approving the offer, nothing is charged.
