The 2008 Mazda 3: Collision replacement car

Here is the 2008 Mazda 3, for anyone after a car while yours is off the road. 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.

What the specs mean

It runs the 2.0L 4-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.

It is rated at 8.7 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 26 litres. In money, 1,000 km costs about $134.90 at our price setting.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Living with the 3

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Luggage space is 481 litres, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Renting the 3 from CarmaCars

A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. Similar cars are below if you need one sooner. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.

Who can rent

The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. No maximum age, and a daily fee only for drivers under 26. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.

If you have no auto policy and no card benefit, the CarmaCars Protection Plan is the third option, priced in your offer. A deposit is held before each rental; the amount is on the car's page. Each extra driver is checked the same way and signs the rental agreement.

How to book

First you send a request with the car and the times. No card is charged for it. We confirm the details and send an offer. It lists the rental, any delivery and any add-ons. When you approve the offer and pay, the car is booked for you.

Every car lists its own deposit and the kilometres included each day. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. Book ahead if you can; 2 hours is the shortest notice we take.
