Auto rental and the 2012 Audi A3

If you need a rental car, read about the 2012 Audi A3 here, then request it. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.

What the figures tell you

Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: front-wheel drive. It runs on diesel, sold at most highway stations. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

The EPA rates it at 7.4 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 22 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $11.47 to drive 100 km.

Who the A3 suits

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Practical details

As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. In plain terms, its 566 litres of luggage space hold bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

In our fleet

There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.

Booking with CarmaCars

Every rental begins with a request from you. It costs nothing and it does not hold the car. We check the calendar and your details, then send you an offer with the total. You pay only once you approve the offer.

The photos on a car's page are of that car. Book one day, one week, or up to 365 days at once. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.

What we need from you

You need to be 18 or older at pickup, with an Ontario G2 or G licence valid for the whole rental. The daily young driver fee is shown on each car's page, for drivers under 26. The payment card and the licence must match the driver's name.

Before the keys change hands, one of three options must be in place for the car: OPCF 27, a card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held about 1 hour ahead of pickup and released after the return. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.

When you know your dates

Ask for the car, read the offer, approve it if it suits you.
