For a car while yours is off the road, the 2012 Ford Explorer is one of many cars on CarmaCars, each with its own page. 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
The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. 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.
At 10.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 31 litres of fuel. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $16.12.
Who it is for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Inside and out
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
Getting this car from us
Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Renting: the basics
We rent to drivers aged 18 and up who hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. From 26, no age fee applies; below it, a daily young driver fee does. We need to see the card and the licence of the person renting.
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. A deposit is held for every rental, about 1 hour before you get the car. We check every driver; it takes a few minutes and protects everyone.
Booking in plain terms
You choose a car and your dates online and send a request. Sending it costs nothing. We confirm the details and send an offer. It lists the rental, any delivery and any add-ons. Approve the offer to book the car. That is the moment you pay, not before.
You can check any car's calendar before you send a request. One booking runs up to 365 days, and a longer stay renews with a new agreement. Give us 2 hours or more before the pickup and we can usually make it work.
Let us know
Request a car, read the offer, and decide. That is the whole process.

Between $500 and $5,000, depending on the car. It is taken about 1 hour before pickup, never when you book, and the balance is released within 7 business days after you return the car.

Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car itself, have your own policy (OPCF 27), a credit card with rental car coverage, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan, priced in your offer by car and driver age.
