Car subscription with this car

For a car by the month, here is what the 2020 BMW i3 brings, and how to request one. There is no long contract: stop at the end of any booking. One booking runs up to 365 days and renews with a new agreement.

Reading the spec sheet

The 0.6L 2-cylinder hybrid, paired with a 1-speed automatic, drives it. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

A combined rating of 7.7 L/100 km works out to about 23 litres per 300 km. It can cover about 322 km on electricity before switching to gas. At our price setting, it costs about $11.94 to drive 100 km.

Who the i3 suits

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

What the i3 is like

Being a small car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. For luggage, 425 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.

Rent it from us

A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

What to have ready

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more: that is where it starts. Drivers under 26 can rent with a young driver fee each day. You show your original licence and your card when we hand you the keys.

Liability to other people is included in every rate. For the car itself, pick your own policy (OPCF 27), a card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Deposits differ by car. Each car's page shows its amount. Every renter goes through the same check of licence and identity before the car is confirmed.

Booking made plain

Requests are free: choose a car, add your dates, and send it. We reply with an offer for the car and the dates, priced in full. The car is yours for those dates once you approve and pay the offer.

Each car page lists what is included and what costs extra. Need it longer than 365 days? Renew with a new agreement when the booking ends. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.

The next step is yours: send a request whenever you are ready.
