Convertible rental: grey 2020 Audi A4 Progressiv in Knobs

Renting the 2020 Audi A4 Progressiv

Convertible rental: the 2020 Audi A4 Progressiv. Here is the car in plain words, and how renting one from CarmaCars works.

The A4 and Knobs

Knobs is about 692 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Knobs.

If you are near Knobs, Johnson Crossroads, Elmhurst and Union are close too.

What the specs mean

The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive and a 7-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Plan on about 24 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 7.9 L/100 km. Every 100 km costs about $13.83 in fuel at our price setting.

What to expect from the A4

As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. With a length of 4.76 m, it counts as on the long side. Check the size of a tight parking spot. Its 368 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who it is for

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

In our fleet

Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates.

The rules, briefly

Every driver must be 18 or older with an Ontario G2 or G licence. A young driver fee applies each day for drivers under 26. We check that the card and the licence carry the same name.

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. The deposit comes about 1 hour before you get the car, not at booking. We check every driver; it takes a few minutes and protects everyone.

Request, offer, keys

Requests come first at CarmaCars. You name the car and the dates, and we take it from there. A person checks the request and sends you an offer with the full price. Payment happens only after you accept the offer.

Prices on each car's page are before tax, and the offer adds the tax. A single booking can run up to 365 days. For longer, it renews month after month. Requests need at least 2 hours of notice before the pickup time.

One more step

Request a car, read the offer, and decide. That is the whole process.
