Engine and fuel

It runs the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

Fuel use is rated 8.8 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 26 litres. On electricity alone it is rated for about 644 km before the gas engine takes over. In money, 1,000 km costs about $136.40 at our price setting.

Living with the Q5

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height. At 4.68 m long, it is mid-size. It fits most condo and driveway spots.

A good match for

Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Renting it

Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

Licence, age and card

You must be 18 or older and hold a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. Under 26? You can rent, with a daily young driver fee shown on the car's page. The card must be in the driver's name, and we check it with the licence in person.

Every rate includes liability to others. Damage to the car is covered by your choice: OPCF 27, your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Each car shows its deposit, and we take it about 1 hour before pickup. Extra drivers are welcome; each one is checked and signs the agreement.

What to expect when you book

Send a request for the car and dates you have in mind. It is free and it commits you to nothing. Back comes an offer you can read at your own pace, with every charge on it. Approve the offer to book the car. That is the moment you pay, not before.

Each car shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. A rental of 7 days or longer is priced at the weekly rate. Pickups need at least 2 hours of notice from the time you send the request.

When you know your dates

When the dates are set, a request gets you a real price.
