Also close to Patsy: Elaver, Cherry Valley and Midland.

Specs, explained

The 2.0L 4-cylinder, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Combined fuel use is 7.0 L/100 km: about 21 litres for 300 km. In money, 1,000 km costs about $108.50 at our price setting.

Living with the Corolla

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.

When the Corolla makes sense

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Renting this car

None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

Booking with CarmaCars

Pick the car and the dates that suit you, then send a request. There is no payment at that point. We confirm the details and send an offer. It lists the rental, any delivery and any add-ons. Your card is charged only when you approve the offer.

Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. The longer the booking, the lower the rate a day tends to be. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.

Renting: the basics

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more: that is where it starts. There is no upper age limit, and drivers under 26 pay a fee for each day. You show your original licence and your card when we hand you the keys.

Third-party liability is part of every rate, and damage to the car is handled by OPCF 27, a card benefit or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Each car shows its deposit, and we take it about 1 hour before pickup. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.

Your move

A request costs nothing, and the offer tells you everything.
