Java and the A4

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java. Java is about 1,639 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.

Neighbouring areas include Selby, Lowry and Sitka.

Reading the spec sheet

It runs the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive. 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.

Expect about 26 litres for every 300 km, going by its 8.6 L/100 km combined rating. Driving 300 km costs roughly $45.15 at our price setting.

Space and size

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is rated at 368 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Checking your details

Renters must be at least 18 and hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. The young driver fee covers drivers under 26; older drivers pay no age fee. You show your original licence and your card when we hand you the keys.

Liability to other people is included in every rate. For the car itself, pick your own policy (OPCF 27), a 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 confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.

Getting the car booked

Choose the car and your times, then send a request. A request does not hold the car, and it costs nothing. Back comes an offer you can read at your own pace, with every charge on it. You have 24 hours to approve an offer, and payment comes with your approval.

Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. Longer trips cost less a day: the weekly rate starts at 7 days. We need at least 2 hours of notice before a pickup.

When the dates are set, a request gets you a real price.
