About the 2014 BMW i8
Searching for Luup alternative? Here is the 2014 BMW i8: what it is like and how to rent it. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.
Under the hood
The 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo hybrid is what moves it, 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.
Plan on about 25 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 8.3 L/100 km. It can cover about 531 km on electricity before switching to gas. Expect about $12.87 per 100 km at our price setting.
Space, size and seats
Being a small car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. EPA lists 142 litres of luggage space, enough for about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
When the i8 makes sense
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Renting 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. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
What we ask of drivers
Drivers 18 and older can rent with a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.
Liability to other people is included in every rate. For the car itself, pick your own policy (OPCF 27), a card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is taken about 1 hour before pickup, never when you book. Extra drivers are welcome; each one is checked and signs the agreement.
From request to keys

Every car on the site has a page of its own, with its calendar and its rates. A week or more is priced at the weekly rate, from 7 days. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.

When you have your dates, send a request. It is free, and the offer shows the full price.
