Loaner car: 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv in Java

Loaner car and the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv

Loaner car: the 2018 Audi Q5 Progressiv. Here is the car in plain words, and how renting one from CarmaCars works. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly.

The Q5 and Java

The pages for Lucks, Ebenezer and Shockoe cover the areas next door.

Under the hood

The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive and a 7-speed automatic. 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.

Fuel use is rated 9.6 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 29 litres. Expect about $16.80 per 100 km at our price setting.

What the Q5 is like

Being a compact SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.

Who the Q5 suits

It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Getting one from us

Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.

Before you rent

Every driver must be 18 or older with an Ontario G2 or G licence. Under 26, a young driver fee applies for each day of the rental. Bring the card in your name that paid for the booking.

You need one of three things in place for damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your own policy, a credit card that covers rentals, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. Extra drivers are welcome; each one is checked and signs the agreement.

Requesting a car

It begins with your request, sent online in a few minutes, with no payment. A person checks the request and sends you an offer with the full price. If you approve, you pay and the car is yours for those dates.

Prices on each car's page are before tax, and the offer adds the tax. Stay as long as you need: up to 365 days a booking, then renew. With 2 hours of notice or more, a same-day pickup can work when the car is free.
