Luup alternative: 2017 Honda Civic EX-T in Java

Luup alternative and the 2017 Honda Civic EX-T

If a rental car is the plan, the 2017 Honda Civic EX-T is worth a look; here is why. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.

Java and the Civic

We have no location in Java; CarmaCars rents from Toronto, about 1,639 km away. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java.

Close by are Selby, Lowry and Sitka, each with its own page.

Specs, explained

The engine is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive and a 6-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Its combined rating is 6.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 20 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $10.54 to drive 100 km.

Who rents the Civic

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Inside and out

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Luggage space is 736 litres, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

Renting the Civic from CarmaCars

This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Want a car for specific dates? Put them in the request and we check. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

What we ask of drivers

The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. Under 26, a young driver fee applies for each day of the rental. You show your original licence and your card when we hand you the keys.

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. Each car's deposit is listed on its page, so you know it before you ask. If another person will drive, add them; they go through the same check.

What to expect when you book

You start by asking: a car, a start time, an end time. Asking is free. The offer we send lists the car we confirm and the full price. You pay when you approve, and only then.

Compare cars side by side by opening their pages. A booking can be a single day or up to 365 days. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.
