Buying the Dodge Lancer
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no Dodge Lancer for sale by us right now. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Before buying the Dodge Lancer, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the Lancer
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Engine and fuel
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
How big it is
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.
Best uses
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
A longer test drive
Try the Lancer on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Lancer answers the big questions. Drive the Lancer on your commute before you commit to it.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Choosing the right one
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Let us know
Send a request to rent the model you are thinking of buying.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Dodge Lancer from us first.
Ask us about the Dodge Lancer
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Dodge Lancer for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Dodge Lancer
Does CarmaCars sell the Dodge Lancer?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Dodge Lancer before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
