Meet the 2021 Ford Explorer ST

The 2021 Ford Explorer ST is a full-size SUV; here is what that means for you. The ST is number 4 of the 6 trims sold in Canada for 2021.

The figures, translated

It uses the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo and rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference. The automatic gearbox makes city traffic easy.

It is rated at 9.9 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 30 litres. City and highway ratings are 11.2 and 8.3 L/100 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $46.05 at our price setting. In miles per US gallon, it is rated 24 combined.

Who the Explorer suits

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

What the Explorer is like

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.

Our Explorer cars

Want a car for specific dates? Put them in the request and we check. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.

Getting the car booked

Booking starts online: pick the car, set the times, and send the request at no cost. You receive an offer with the price, the deposit and what is included. You decide: approve and pay, or let it go. No charge either way until you approve.

Each car has its own page with its photos, its rates and its calendar. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.

Licence, age and card

Our minimum age is 18; an Ontario G2 or G licence is required. The daily young driver fee is shown on each car's page, for drivers under 26. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.

Liability to other people is included in every rate. For the car itself, pick your own policy (OPCF 27), a card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Deposits are listed car by car, so you can compare before you ask. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.
