Renting the 2012 Ford Escape
The 2012 Ford Escape is on this page for car service: here is what to know before you request one. Chauffeur bookings are by the hour, two hours minimum; send a request and we reply with the vehicle we can offer and the price.
The numbers in plain words
The powertrain here is the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Fuel use is rated 7.4 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 22 litres. In money, 1,000 km costs about $114.70 at our price setting.
What the Escape is like
As an SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.
Good uses for the Escape
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Getting this car from us
Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
From request to keys
Choose the car and your times, then send a request. A request does not hold the car, and it costs nothing. We review it and reply with an offer that shows the whole price, delivery included when you asked for it. If the offer works for you, approve and pay to confirm. If not, you owe nothing.
You can see every car's calendar and rates before you send anything. Stay as long as you need: up to 365 days a booking, then renew. We need at least 2 hours of notice before a pickup.
Before you rent
Drivers need to be 18 or over, holding an Ontario G2 or G licence for the whole rental. Each day of the rental carries a young driver fee if a driver is under 26. Bring the card you paid with and your original licence to the handover.
Third-party liability is in the rate; for the car, bring OPCF 27, use your card's benefit, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Expect a deposit before every rental; its amount is set by the car. Each driver named on the booking signs the rental agreement.
