About the 2012 Mazda 3
Want the 2012 Mazda 3 as a car while yours is off the road? Start here: the car in plain words, then how booking works. 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
Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder and 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.
At 7.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 22 litres of fuel. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $34.41 at our price setting.
Who rents the 3
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Size and space
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is rated at 481 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Rent it from us
Want a car for specific dates? Put them in the request and we check. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Driver basics
Ontario G2 or G licences are accepted, for drivers 18 and older. Age fees stop at 26: younger drivers pay a daily young driver fee. Bring a card in your name; a card in someone else's name cannot be used.
Three options cover damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your auto policy, a credit card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. The checks are the same for everyone: licence, identity and the agreement.
Your request, our offer, your keys
Nothing to pay up front: the first step is simply a request. Our offer spells out the rate, the delivery fee if any, and the deposit. Approving the offer and paying it confirms the booking.
Every car lists its own deposit and the kilometres included each day. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.
