A buyer's checks

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 78 complaints with NHTSA, most often about structure, forward collision avoidance and unknown or other; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain here is the 1.6L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Fuel use is rated 7.1 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 21 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $11.01 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Best uses

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Size and space

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. In plain terms, its 708 litres of luggage space hold bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

A longer test drive

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

Picking a year and a trim

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Compare the SR with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

What it costs to run

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $110.10 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
