A note on Loop

We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Loop starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here. We have no location in Loop; CarmaCars rents from Toronto, about 2,340 km away.

Places around Loop include Ashmore, Seagraves and White City.

Under the hood

The powertrain to know here is the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo, with four-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Four-wheel drive helps on rough ground and deep snow; on dry roads it behaves like any other vehicle.

It is rated 11.4 L/100 km combined: about 34 litres every 300 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $17.67, and a 300 km weekend about $53.01.

What the Explorer is like

Being a full-size SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.

A good match for

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.

Rent it from us

There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

The rules, briefly

Drivers from 18 up, with an Ontario G2 or G licence, are welcome. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. The name on the card has to match the name on the licence.

Three options cover damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your auto policy, a credit card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. There is a deposit for each rental, taken shortly before pickup rather than at booking. Before confirming, we verify the licence and identity of each driver.

How to book

Start with a request. Choose the car, the pickup time and the return time, and send it without paying anything. You receive an offer with the price, the deposit and what is included. Only an approved, paid offer books the car.

You can check any car's calendar before you send a request. Weekly pricing starts at 7 days, and a trip never costs more than that rate for a week. With 2 hours of notice or more, a same-day pickup can work when the car is free.

Still deciding?

Look through the cars, choose one, and send a request when it suits you.
