About the 2001 Kia Optima
For a car with a driver, the 2001 Kia Optima 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.
Reading the spec sheet
The powertrain to know here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder, 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.
A combined rating of 11.2 L/100 km works out to about 34 litres per 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $52.08 in energy at our price setting.
Good uses for the Optima
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Space and size
As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is rated at 368 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Rent this car
A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
How booking works
Every booking starts as a request: the car, the dates and where you want it. Nothing is charged to send one. We confirm and price it, and the offer arrives in your account and by email. Approve the offer to book the car. That is the moment you pay, not before.
A car's page shows the deposit and the kilometres included each day. From 7 days, the weekly rate takes over. With 2 hours of notice or more, a same-day pickup can work when the car is free.
What we check
You need to be 18 or older at pickup, with an Ontario G2 or G licence valid for the whole rental. Drivers below 26 pay a fee each day of the rental, and older drivers pay none. Debit works on cars marked "no credit card needed"; the others take a credit card.
Damage to the car is handled one of three ways: OPCF 27 on your policy, a credit card's rental car benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is released after the return, once the car is checked. Extra drivers are welcome; each one is checked and signs the agreement.
