About the 1997 Ford Taurus
This 1997 Ford Taurus page is written for a car while yours is off the road: the car first, then renting it from us. 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.
What the specs mean
The powertrain to know here is the 3.0L 6-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.
Its combined rating is 11.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 35 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $18.29 to drive 100 km.
Best uses
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Inside and out
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. EPA lists 1,076 litres of luggage space, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Renting the Taurus from CarmaCars
Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Before pickup
From age 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence, you can send a request. Young drivers, under 26, can rent too, with a fee for each day. Bring the card you paid with and your original licence to the handover.
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. The deposit is never taken when you book; it comes about 1 hour before pickup. Name every driver in your request, and each is checked before pickup.
The steps
First, a request: the car you like, when you need it, and where. No payment yet. A person replies with an offer priced for your dates, not an estimate. Approve it and the car is booked; decline it and nothing happens.
Rates are set car by car and shown on each car's page. A booking can be a single day or up to 365 days. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.
One more step
Tell us your dates and where you want the car, and we will do the rest.
