For a car with a driver, the 2017 BMW i3 could fit; below, the figures and how booking works. Chauffeur bookings are by the hour, two hours minimum; send a request and we reply with the vehicle we can offer and the price.
What the specs mean
The 0.6L 2-cylinder hybrid is what moves it, with rear-wheel drive. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 20 litres, from its 6.7 L/100 km rating. On electricity alone it is rated for about 290 km before the gas engine takes over. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $103.90.
Who rents the i3
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.
Room inside
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its 425 litres of luggage space fit a family's bags for a long weekend.
Renting the i3 from CarmaCars
None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are below if you need one sooner. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
What we check
From age 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence, you can send a request. A daily young driver fee applies to drivers under 26, with no maximum age. Your original licence, not a photo, comes with you to the handover.
If your own policy has OPCF 27 or your card covers rental cars, use that; otherwise add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. A deposit is held before each rental; the amount is on the car's page. Every renter goes through the same check of licence and identity before the car is confirmed.
Booking in plain terms
To book, you request the car for your dates. There is no charge to send it and no obligation. We send the offer to your account and your email, with the total shown. The booking is confirmed when you approve the offer and pay it.
Each car shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. Short trips and long stays use the same request; the rate follows the length. Requests for later the same day work when there are at least 2 hours to spare.
Let us know
The quickest way to a price is a request with your dates. It costs nothing.

At $2,500 or more we claim on our fleet policy and you pay the $2,500 deductible.
