The 2018 Ford Escape: Luup alternative
If you need a rental car, read about the 2018 Ford Escape here, then request it. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
The numbers in plain words
The engine is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
It is rated at 9.1 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 27 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $14.11 at our price setting.
Living with the Escape
It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.
Good uses for the Escape
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Renting 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. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
The booking steps
You request the car online with your dates, and you pay nothing to send it. We reply with an offer for the car and the dates, priced in full. Pay when you approve, not a minute before.
The car pages show each car's rates, deposit and kilometres included. A booking can be a single day or up to 365 days. The minimum notice is 2 hours, so an afternoon pickup can be requested in the morning.
Driver basics
Every driver needs an Ontario G2 or G licence and must be 18 or older. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee for each day, shown on each car's page. A card in the driver's own name is required at the handover.
Damage to the car is handled one of three ways: OPCF 27 on your policy, a credit card's rental car benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is taken shortly before pickup, and the balance comes back after the return. Additional drivers can be added; each one meets the same rules and signs the agreement.
