About the 2004 Mazda 3
Searching for Luup alternative? Here is the 2004 Mazda 3: what it is like and how to rent it. 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
It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Rated at 8.7 L/100 km combined, it needs around 26 litres for a 300 km round trip. In energy, every 100 km costs about $13.49 at our price setting.
When the 3 makes sense
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
What to expect from the 3
As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. With 481 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes a family's bags for a long weekend.

Your booking, in three steps
Booking starts online: pick the car, set the times, and send the request at no cost. A person replies with an offer priced for your dates, not an estimate. If you approve, you pay and the car is yours for those dates.
Every car on the site has a page of its own, with its calendar and its rates. The monthly rate covers a booking of up to 365 days. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.
What we ask of drivers
At pickup you must be 18 or older and carry your original G2 or G licence. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. At the handover we check your licence and the card in your name.
Choose before pickup how damage to the car is handled: your policy with OPCF 27, your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. We hold the deposit shortly before pickup and release it after the return. Before confirming, we verify the licence and identity of each driver.
