The numbers in plain words

It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

Its combined rating is 8.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 26 litres for 300 km. It can cover about 644 km on electricity before switching to gas. That works out to about $13.64 per 100 km at our price setting.

Space and size

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier. NHTSA lists it at 4.68 m long. It fits most condo and driveway spots.

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.

Can I rent it?

A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

From request to keys

First, a request: the car you like, when you need it, and where. No payment yet. 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 shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. A booking can be a single day or up to 365 days. Requests need at least 2 hours of notice before the pickup time.

What we need from you

Every driver needs an Ontario G2 or G licence and must be 18 or older. If any driver is under 26, a young driver fee is added for each day. We need to see the card and the licence of the person renting.

Third-party liability comes with every rate. For the car itself: your own policy with OPCF 27, a card that covers rentals, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Deposits are listed car by car, so you can compare before you ask. Before confirming, we verify the licence and identity of each driver.

Questions first?

Choose a car above and send a request. A person replies with an offer, and you pay only if you approve it.
