The 2012 Saab 9-3: Executive car service
For a car with a driver, the 2012 Saab 9-3 could fit; below, the figures and how booking works. Chauffeur bookings are by the hour, two hours minimum; send a request and we reply with the vehicle we can offer and the price.
The numbers in plain words
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.
Plan on about 29 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 9.7 L/100 km. In money, 1,000 km costs about $150.40 at our price setting.
Good uses for the 9-3
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
The 9-3 in everyday use
As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is rated at 850 litres: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Renting it
Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
From your dates to the handover
To get started, send a request for the car and dates. You are not charged for it. If the car is free, you get an offer with the full price; if not, we suggest another car. An offer is valid for 24 hours, and you pay only when you approve it.
Each car shows its own extra kilometre rate, so nothing surprises you later. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. Same-day requests are fine with at least 2 hours of notice, when the car is free.
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. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.
Every rate includes third-party liability. The car itself needs one of three options: OPCF 27, a card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Deposits are listed car by car, so you can compare before you ask. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.
