Car hire and the 2021 Audi Q5 Progressiv

A note on Danforth

CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 1,566 km from Danforth, and does not deliver there. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Danforth starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.

Under the hood

Its 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid drives through a 7-speed automatic. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.

Plan on about 26 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 8.8 L/100 km. On electricity alone it is rated for about 644 km before the gas engine takes over. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $40.92 at our price setting.

Good uses for the Q5

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

What to expect from the Q5

Being a compact SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well. At 4.68 m long, it is mid-size. It fits most condo and driveway spots.

Getting one from us

Your request can name this exact car; the offer confirms what we can give you. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

From request to keys

Tell us the car and the dates in a request. There is no fee for asking. A person checks the request and sends you an offer with the full price. The car is yours for those dates once you approve and pay the offer.

The rates you see on a car's page are the rates in your offer. Longer trips cost less a day: the weekly rate starts at 7 days. The minimum notice is 2 hours, so an afternoon pickup can be requested in the morning.

Requirements

From age 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence, you can send a request. Each day of the rental carries a young driver fee if a driver is under 26. A card in your name pays for the rental, and we see it with your licence at pickup.

Three options cover damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your auto policy, a credit card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is taken shortly before pickup, and the balance comes back after the return. We verify licences and identity for every renter, with no exceptions.
