Collision replacement car: the 2008 Kia Optima

Renting the 2008 Kia Optima as a car while yours is off the road works like any rental with us: a free request, an offer, then the keys. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain to know here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

The EPA rates it at 9.4 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 28 litres. Expect about $14.57 per 100 km at our price setting.

Who the Optima suits

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

How big it is

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its 396 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Rent it from us

We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.

Booking in plain terms

Your part at the start is short: choose a car and dates and send a free request. Back comes an offer you can read at your own pace, with every charge on it. If it suits you, approve it and pay. Until then, nothing is charged.

Every car lists its own deposit and the kilometres included each day. For longer stays, each booking of up to 365 days renews with a new agreement. A pickup can be as soon as 2 hours after your request, when the car is free.

Requirements

You need an Ontario G2 or G licence, valid for the whole rental, and to be 18 or older. If any driver is under 26, a young driver fee is added for each day. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.

You pick how damage to the car is handled before pickup: OPCF 27, a credit card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. A deposit applies to every rental. It is shown on the car's page and taken about 1 hour before pickup. Name every driver in your request, and each is checked before pickup.

Ready when you are

A request costs nothing, and the offer tells you everything.
