Renting the 2017 BMW i3
If a car while yours is off the road is the plan, the 2017 BMW i3 is worth a look; here is why. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly.
The figures, translated
The powertrain here is the 0.6L 2-cylinder hybrid with rear-wheel drive and a 1-speed automatic. 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.
A combined rating of 6.7 L/100 km works out to about 20 litres per 300 km. 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.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
What to expect from the i3
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. EPA lists 425 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.
Getting one from us
Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
What you need to rent
Ontario G2 or G licences are accepted, for drivers 18 and older. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. A card in your name pays for the rental, and we see it with your licence at pickup.
Liability to others is in the rate. Damage to the car is handled by your policy (OPCF 27), your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan, priced in your offer. Each car's deposit is listed on its page, so you know it before you ask. We check your licence and identity before we confirm, the same way for every renter.
Getting the car booked
You begin by requesting a car for your dates; the request is free. We look at the request and send back an offer with the price for your exact dates. Your card is charged only when you approve the offer.
The calendar on each car's page helps you pick dates that work. From 7 days, the weekly rate takes over. Give us 2 hours or more before the pickup and we can usually make it work.
