The numbers in plain words

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.

Plan on about 34 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 11.4 L/100 km. Every 100 km costs about $17.67 in fuel at our price setting.

Practical details

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Who rents the Explorer

Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Booking, step by step

The process opens with a request from you, which costs nothing and binds you to nothing. We look at the request and send back an offer with the price for your exact dates. Approve the offer to book the car. That is the moment you pay, not before.

Rates are set car by car and shown on each car's page. Trips of 7 days or more use the weekly rate, and shorter trips never cost more than it. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.

What to bring

The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. If you are under 26, expect a young driver fee each day; there is no upper age limit. The payment card and the licence must match the driver's name.

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 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.

Your move

When the dates are set, a request gets you a real price.
