Car subscription: Lexus LX

Renting the Lexus LX

If a car by the month is the plan, the Lexus LX is worth a look; here is why. 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.

What the figures tell you

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Who it is for

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Inside and out

The higher seat of a full-size SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Rent it from us

This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

The steps

First, a request: the car you like, when you need it, and where. No payment yet. You get an offer that says exactly what the rental costs before tax. Approve the offer to book the car. That is the moment you pay, not before.

Each listing shows the daily, weekly and monthly rate of that car. A week or more is priced at the weekly rate, from 7 days. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.

Before you rent

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more are the starting point. From 26, no age fee applies; below it, a daily young driver fee does. Your licence and the card you paid with come with you to the pickup.

Every rate includes liability to others. Damage to the car is covered by your choice: OPCF 27, your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. We hold the deposit shortly before pickup and release it after the return. Name every driver in your request, and each is checked before pickup.
