Collision replacement car with this car
Collision replacement car and the 2018 Kia Optima: the figures first, then how to rent it from CarmaCars. 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.
Engine and fuel
The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 5.6 L/100 km, means roughly 17 litres for 300 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $26.04 at our price setting.
Best uses
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
The Optima in everyday use
As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is 368 litres, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

What we check
We need every driver to be at least 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence. A daily young driver fee applies to drivers under 26, with no maximum age. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.
You need one of three things in place for damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your own policy, a credit card that covers rentals, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit amount depends on the car and is shown on its page. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.

Each car page lists what is included and what costs extra. Book one day, one week, or up to 365 days at once. Same-day requests are fine with at least 2 hours of notice, when the car is free.
