About the 2004 Kia Optima

Want to know if the 2004 Kia Optima suits a rental car? Read on. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.

Specs, explained

The engine is the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

It is rated at 10.2 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 31 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $15.81 at our price setting.

How big it is

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. For luggage, 368 litres means about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who the Optima suits

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Rules for renters

We rent to drivers aged 18 and up who hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. No maximum age, and a daily fee only for drivers under 26. At pickup, have your original licence and the payment card ready.

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. Expect a deposit before every rental; its amount is set by the car. Additional drivers can be added; each one meets the same rules and signs the agreement.

The steps

Nothing to pay up front: the first step is simply a request. You then get an offer from us with the car, the dates and the total before tax. You decide: approve and pay, or let it go. No charge either way until you approve.
