About the 1998 Subaru Forester

Searching for car subscription and the 1998 Subaru Forester? Here is what the car is like and how to rent one 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.

Under the hood

It runs the 2.5L 4-cylinder, with all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

It is rated 11.2 L/100 km combined: about 34 litres every 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $52.08 in energy at our price setting.

Size and space

It is the kind of vehicle that makes a family trip calmer. The trunk holds 934 litres by the EPA's count: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

When the Forester makes sense

It suits groups, airport runs with luggage and family trips. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

Renting the Forester from CarmaCars

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. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.

Your booking, in three steps

You ask for the car online with your dates, and nothing is charged to send it. Then we send an offer. The offer shows the price before 13% HST and the deposit. Nothing is charged until you approve it and pay.

You can check any car's calendar before you send a request. A single booking can run up to 365 days. For longer, it renews month after month. A request can be for today, as long as the pickup is at least 2 hours away.

Driver basics

At pickup you must be 18 or older and carry your original G2 or G licence. If you are under 26, expect a young driver fee each day; there is no upper age limit. We check that the card and the licence carry the same name.

If you have no auto policy and no card benefit, the CarmaCars Protection Plan is the third option, priced in your offer. The deposit is separate from the rental price and is returned after the rental. Licence and identity checks happen before the booking is confirmed.

Ready when you are

When the dates are set, a request gets you a real price.
