Courtesy car: red 2018 Audi A4 Komfort in Java

Courtesy car and the 2018 Audi A4 Komfort

If a car while yours is off the road is the plan, the 2018 Audi A4 Komfort is worth a look; here is why. 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.

A note on Java

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java. CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 1,639 km from Java, and does not deliver there.

Neighbouring areas include Selby, Lowry and Sitka.

The figures, translated

The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive and a 6-speed manual. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

By the EPA's combined rating of 8.6 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 26 litres. That works out to about $15.05 per 100 km at our price setting.

Who rents the A4

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

What to expect from the A4

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. With 368 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Can I rent it?

Who qualifies

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more: that is where it starts. Young drivers are welcome: a daily fee applies under 26. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.

You pick how damage to the car is handled before pickup: OPCF 27, a credit card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. Every renter goes through the same check of licence and identity before the car is confirmed.

Booking in plain terms

Tell us the car and the dates in a request. There is no fee for asking. Our reply is an offer that lists the rate, the kilometres included and any delivery fee. When you approve the offer and pay, the car is booked for you.

Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. Book one day, one week, or up to 365 days at once. Last-minute plans are fine with at least 2 hours of notice.
