Engine and fuel

Plan on about 26 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 8.6 L/100 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $13.33 at our price setting.

Good uses for the CX-5

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Space, size and seats

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.

Renting it

Want a car for specific dates? Put them in the request and we check. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. 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. If any driver is under 26, a young driver fee is added for each day. Your original licence, not a photo, comes with you to the handover.

The CarmaCars Protection Plan is one of three options for damage to the car; the others are OPCF 27 on your policy or a card with rental car benefits. Each car shows its deposit, and we take it about 1 hour before pickup. Each driver named on the booking signs the rental agreement.

Requesting a car

You ask for the car you want for the dates you need. The request itself is free. We review it and reply with an offer that shows the whole price, delivery included when you asked for it. You decide: approve and pay, or let it go. No charge either way until you approve.

Every car lists its own deposit and the kilometres included each day. Longer trips cost less a day: the weekly rate starts at 7 days. The minimum notice is 2 hours, so an afternoon pickup can be requested in the morning.
