Car with driver and the 1997 Ford Explorer: the figures first, then how to rent it from CarmaCars. Chauffeur bookings are by the hour, two hours minimum; send a request and we reply with the vehicle we can offer and the price.
Specs, explained
It uses the 4.0L 6-cylinder and rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
A combined rating of 13.1 L/100 km works out to about 39 litres per 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $20.31 to drive 100 km.
Good uses for the Explorer
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Space and size
Being a van, it carries people and their bags without fuss.
Rent this car
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. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Rules for renters
We rent to drivers aged 18 and up who hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. Drivers under 26 can rent with a young driver fee each day. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.
Every rate includes third-party liability. The car itself needs one of three options: OPCF 27, a card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is taken shortly before pickup, and the balance comes back after the return. We check your licence and identity before we confirm, the same way for every renter.
Booking in plain terms
First you send a request with the car and the times. No card is charged for it. We confirm and price it, and the offer arrives in your account and by email. Your card is charged only when you approve the offer.
The rates you see on a car's page are the rates in your offer. Stay as long as you need: up to 365 days a booking, then renew. Pickups need at least 2 hours of notice from the time you send the request.
Make a request
Send a request with your dates, and we will come back with an offer.
