What the figures tell you
Under the hood: the 3.0L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
A combined rating of 12.4 L/100 km works out to about 37 litres per 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $217 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Space and size
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. In plain terms, its 425 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
A longer test drive
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Running costs
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Let us know
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
