Renting the 2020 Ford Escape SEL

What the specs mean

The powertrain here is the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Rated at 7.8 L/100 km combined, it needs around 23 litres for a 300 km round trip. In money, 1,000 km costs about $120.90 at our price setting.

How big it is

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

Who it is for

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Can I rent it?

Want a car for specific dates? Put them in the request and we check. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

What you need to rent

At pickup you must be 18 or older and carry your original G2 or G licence. Under 26? You can rent, with a daily young driver fee shown on the car's page. We check that the card and the licence carry the same name.

Damage to the car is handled one of three ways: OPCF 27 on your policy, a credit card's rental car benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. We take the deposit shortly before pickup and return it after the car comes back. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.

How renting with us works

Send the request with your dates first; no money changes hands at that stage. Someone on our team confirms the car is free for those dates and sends you an offer with every charge listed. Approve it and the car is booked; decline it and nothing happens.

Each listing shows the daily, weekly and monthly rate of that car. From 7 days, the weekly rate applies; up to 365 days, a trip never costs more than the monthly rate. Pickups need at least 2 hours of notice from the time you send the request.
