Car subscription: silver 2017 Chevrolet Malibu LS in Java

Car subscription and the 2017 Chevrolet Malibu LS

This 2017 Chevrolet Malibu LS page is written for a car by the month: the car first, then renting it from us. 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.

The Malibu and Java

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java. Java is about 1,639 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.

Close by are Selby, Lowry and Sitka, each with its own page.

Specs, explained

It runs the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Its combined rating is 7.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 23 litres for 300 km. That works out to about $12.09 per 100 km at our price setting.

A good match for

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Space and size

As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. With 453 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes a family's bags for a long weekend.

Our Malibu cars

Meanwhile, 7 similar cars are listed below. A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates.

Rules for renters

Our minimum age is 18; an Ontario G2 or G licence is required. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. The card you pay with must be yours, and you bring it to the handover.

Before pickup, choose how damage to the car is handled: your auto policy (OPCF 27), your credit card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is taken shortly before pickup, and the balance comes back after the return. We check your licence and identity before we confirm, the same way for every renter.

How booking works

The process opens with a request from you, which costs nothing and binds you to nothing. We confirm the details and send an offer. It lists the rental, any delivery and any add-ons. Approve it and the car is booked; decline it and nothing happens.

Compare cars side by side by opening their pages. Longer trips cost less a day: the weekly rate starts at 7 days. Same-day requests are fine with at least 2 hours of notice, when the car is free.

When you know your dates

Request a car, read the offer, and decide. That is the whole process.
