The A4 and Stringtown

What the figures tell you

The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid with all-wheel drive and a 7-speed automatic. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

Fuel use is rated 8.3 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 25 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $12.87 to drive 100 km.

Who the A4 suits

Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

What the A4 is like

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. For luggage, 340 litres means about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Renting: the basics

Every driver must be 18 or older with an Ontario G2 or G licence. 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.

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 for every rental, about 1 hour before you get the car. Additional drivers can be added; each one meets the same rules and signs the agreement.

What happens when you ask for a car

You choose a car and your dates online and send a request. Sending it costs nothing. The offer comes from a person, not a robot, and it carries the full price. 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. From 7 days, the weekly rate applies; up to 365 days, a trip never costs more than the monthly rate. Book ahead if you can; 2 hours is the shortest notice we take.

One more step

Ask for the car, read the offer, approve it if it suits you.
