Luup alternative: the 2014 BMW i3
Luup alternative: the 2014 BMW i3. Here is the car in plain words, and how renting one from CarmaCars works. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
What the figures tell you
The 0.6L 2-cylinder hybrid, paired with a 1-speed automatic, drives it. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
A combined rating of 6.0 L/100 km works out to about 18 litres per 300 km. It can cover about 241 km on electricity before switching to gas. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $9.30 at our price setting.
What to expect from the i3
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. At 425 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.
Good uses for the i3
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Renting the i3 from CarmaCars
Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. 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. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Driver requirements
You must be 18 or older and hold a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. Drivers under 26 can rent with a young driver fee each day. Debit works on cars marked "no credit card needed"; the others take a credit card.
Liability to others is in the rate. Damage to the car is handled by your policy (OPCF 27), your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan, priced in your offer. The deposit comes about 1 hour before you get the car, not at booking. If another person will drive, add them; they go through the same check.
Booking made plain
You begin by requesting a car for your dates; the request is free. Next comes our offer, with the confirmed car and every charge on one page. You pay when you approve, and only then.
Every car has its own daily, weekend, weekly and monthly rate. The longer the booking, the lower the rate a day tends to be. Last-minute plans are fine with at least 2 hours of notice.

What coverage do I need?
Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car itself, have your own policy (OPCF 27), a credit card with rental car coverage, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan, priced in your offer by car and driver age. At $2,500 or more we claim on our fleet policy and you pay the $2,500 deductible.
