Car with driver: blue 2021 Ford Escape S in Ruby

Car with driver and the 2021 Ford Escape S

Car with driver: the 2021 Ford Escape S. Here is the car in plain words, and how renting one from CarmaCars 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.

The Escape and Ruby

If you need it in Ruby itself, send a request and we will tell you honestly whether we can help. Ruby is about 250 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to.

If you are close to Ruby, you may also be near Zadow, Castile and Silver Lake.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain to know here is the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Fuel use is rated 7.8 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 23 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $36.27 at our price setting.

When the Escape makes sense

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

The Escape in everyday use

It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.

Renting it

If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

The steps

First you send a request with the car and the times. No card is charged for it. Our team answers with an offer: the confirmed car, the dates and the full price. Approve the offer to book the car. That is the moment you pay, not before.

Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. One booking runs up to 365 days, and a longer stay renews with a new agreement. Book ahead if you can; 2 hours is the shortest notice we take.

Checking your details

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more: that is where it starts. Under 26, a young driver fee applies for each day of the rental. We check that the card and the licence carry the same name.

Choose before pickup how damage to the car is handled: your policy with OPCF 27, your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. There is a deposit for each rental, taken shortly before pickup rather than at booking. Extra drivers are welcome; each one is checked and signs the agreement.

Your move

Ready? Request the car. If you change your mind before approving the offer, nothing is charged.
