Car subscription: white 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Highline in Java

Car subscription and the 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Highline

If a car by the month is the plan, the 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Highline is worth a look; here is why. One booking runs up to 365 days and renews with a new agreement. There is no long contract: stop at the end of any booking.

A note on Java

CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 1,639 km from Java, and does not deliver there. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Java starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.

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

The figures, translated

The 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. 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.

It is rated 7.2 L/100 km combined: about 22 litres every 300 km. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $33.48 at our price setting.

Space, size and seats

As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. At 453 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.

Good uses for the Jetta

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Rent this car

There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. Meanwhile, 10 similar cars are listed below.

Driver basics

We need every driver to be at least 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence. The young driver fee covers drivers under 26; older drivers pay no age fee. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.

You need one of three things in place for damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your own policy, a credit card that covers rentals, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is never taken when you book; it comes about 1 hour before pickup. Every renter goes through the same check of licence and identity before the car is confirmed.

Requesting a car

Booking is by request, never instant. You send the car and the dates, and a person at CarmaCars reviews it. We check the calendar and your details, then send you an offer with the total. You pay when you approve, and only then.

Every car lists its own deposit and the kilometres included each day. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. Leave at least 2 hours between your request and the pickup.
