Luup alternative with this car
Searching for Luup alternative and the 2019 Kia Optima? Here is what the car is like and how to rent one from us. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.
Under the hood
The 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Fuel use is rated 5.7 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 17 litres. A 300 km weekend costs about $26.52 in energy at our price setting.
A good match for
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Room inside
As a large sedan, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. Luggage space is rated at 368 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Renting it
Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Request, offer, keys
First, a request: the car you like, when you need it, and where. No payment yet. An offer follows, with the car we confirm and the full price for your dates. Approve it and the car is booked; decline it and nothing happens.
Every car lists its own deposit and the kilometres included each day. Weekly pricing starts at 7 days, and a trip never costs more than that rate for a week. Last-minute plans are fine with at least 2 hours of notice.
Driver basics
Our minimum age is 18; an Ontario G2 or G licence is required. The daily young driver fee is shown on each car's page, for drivers under 26. Debit works on cars marked "no credit card needed"; the others take a credit card.
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. Your deposit is held about 1 hour ahead of pickup and released after the return. Extra drivers are welcome; each one is checked and signs the agreement.
