About the 1997 Mazda Protege
For a car while yours is off the road, the 1997 Mazda Protege is one of many cars on CarmaCars, each with its own page. 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 figures tell you
It is powered by the 1.5L 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.
A combined rating of 8.1 L/100 km works out to about 24 litres per 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $125.60 at our price setting.
Inside and out
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Who rents the Protege
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Our Protege cars
Your request can name this exact car; the offer confirms what we can give you. There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Driver requirements
We need every driver to be at least 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. Debit works on cars marked "no credit card needed"; the others take a credit card.
Every rate includes third-party liability. The car itself needs one of three options: OPCF 27, a card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. There is a deposit for each rental, taken shortly before pickup rather than at booking. The checks are the same for everyone: licence, identity and the agreement.
Requesting a car
Booking starts online: pick the car, set the times, and send the request at no cost. We send the offer to your account and your email, with the total shown. You pay only once you approve the offer.
Every car on the site has a page of its own, with its calendar and its rates. Longer trips cost less a day: the weekly rate starts at 7 days. Allow 2 hours or more between your request and the pickup time.
