Luup alternative: the 2008 Lexus GS
If you need a rental car, read about the 2008 Lexus GS here, then request it. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Reading the spec sheet
The 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid with rear-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. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Fuel use is rated 10.2 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 31 litres. Driving 300 km costs roughly $47.43 at our price setting.
Best uses
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Living with the GS
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. For luggage, 227 litres means about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.

Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
How it works
A booking with us starts as a request that you send without paying. The offer we send lists the car we confirm and the full price. You have 24 hours to approve an offer, and payment comes with your approval.
Each listing shows the daily, weekly and monthly rate of that car. A week or more is priced at the weekly rate, from 7 days. The shortest notice we accept before a pickup is 2 hours.
Driver requirements
If you are 18 or over and hold an Ontario G2 or G licence, you can rent. If any driver is under 26, a young driver fee is added for each day. Cars marked "no credit card needed" accept a debit card in your name; the others need a credit card.
You need one of three things in place for damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your own policy, a credit card that covers rentals, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. A deposit is held for every rental, about 1 hour before you get the car. We verify licences and identity for every renter, with no exceptions.
