Luup alternative with this car
The 2012 Lexus IS is on this page for Luup alternative: here is what to know before you request one. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.
Specs, explained
Power: the 2.5L 6-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The EPA rates it at 9.7 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 29 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $50.91 at our price setting.
What to expect from the IS
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 311 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
In our fleet
Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you 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 meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Your booking, in three steps
The first step is a free request: which car, which dates, and how you want to get it. If the car is free, you get an offer with the full price; if not, we suggest another car. You pay only once you approve the offer.
Compare cars side by side by opening their pages. Trips of 7 days or more use the weekly rate, and shorter trips never cost more than it. Leave at least 2 hours between your request and the pickup.
What we ask of drivers
Every driver needs an Ontario G2 or G licence and must be 18 or older. Young drivers, under 26, can rent too, with a fee for each day. We check that the card and the licence carry the same 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 released after the return, once the car is checked. Every renter goes through the same check of licence and identity before the car is confirmed.
Still deciding?
Choose a car above and send a request. A person replies with an offer, and you pay only if you approve it.
