Renting the 2003 Kia Optima
The 2003 Kia Optima is on this page for executive car service: here is what to know before you request one. Chauffeur bookings are by the hour, two hours minimum; send a request and we reply with the vehicle we can offer and the price.
What the figures tell you
Under the hood: the 2.4L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Its combined rating is 10.2 L/100 km, which means roughly 31 litres for 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $15.81.
Best uses
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.
The Optima in everyday use
Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Luggage space is 368 litres, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Can I rent it?
If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Booking, step by step
The first step is a free request: which car, which dates, and how you want to get it. A staff member reads the request and sends the offer. We reply within 2 hours. Say yes to the offer and pay; that is when the booking is made.
Each car shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. From 7 days, the weekly rate applies; up to 365 days, a trip never costs more than the monthly rate. A request can be for today, as long as the pickup is at least 2 hours away.
What to bring
Renters must be at least 18 and hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. Each day of the rental carries a young driver fee if a driver is under 26. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.
Before pickup, choose how damage to the car is handled: your auto policy (OPCF 27), your credit card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. There is a deposit for each rental, taken shortly before pickup rather than at booking. We check every driver; it takes a few minutes and protects everyone.
Still deciding?
Questions, dates or both: put them in a request and we answer.
