Renting the 2017 BMW i8
This 2017 BMW i8 page is written for a rental car: the car first, then renting it from us. 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
Under the hood: the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo hybrid and 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 sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.
Rated at 8.3 L/100 km combined, it needs around 25 litres for a 300 km round trip. On electricity alone it is rated for about 531 km before the gas engine takes over. In energy, every 100 km costs about $12.87 at our price setting.
Who rents the i8
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Space and size
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its 142 litres of luggage space fit about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Can you rent one?
This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Licence, age and card
You must be 18 or older and hold a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. Age fees stop at 26: younger drivers pay a daily young driver fee. We need to see the card and the licence of the person renting.
The CarmaCars Protection Plan is one of three options for damage to the car; the others are OPCF 27 on your policy or a card with rental car benefits. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.
From request to keys
Tell us the car and the dates in a request. There is no fee for asking. A real person reviews your request and sends an offer with the price spelled out. Payment happens only after you accept the offer.
Each car has its own page with its photos, its rates and its calendar. For longer stays, each booking of up to 365 days renews with a new agreement. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.
