Renting the 2018 Mazda 3
For a rental car, the 2018 Mazda 3 could fit; below, the figures and how booking works. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.
The numbers in plain words
The 2.0L 4-cylinder, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
The combined figure, 7.5 L/100 km, means roughly 23 litres for 300 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $34.89 at our price setting.
Who rents the 3
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Practical details
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. For luggage, 623 litres means bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Can you rent one?
We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What to bring
An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more: that is where it starts. A young driver fee applies each day for drivers under 26. Debit works on cars marked "no credit card needed"; the others take a credit card.
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. The deposit is taken about 1 hour before pickup, never when you book. Every driver's licence and identity are checked before we confirm.
Your booking, in three steps
A booking with us starts as a request that you send without paying. You get an offer that says exactly what the rental costs before tax. Payment happens only after you accept the offer.
You can see every car's calendar and rates before you send anything. The monthly rate covers a booking of up to 365 days. Pickups need at least 2 hours of notice from the time you send the request.
Send a request
Request a car, read the offer, and decide. That is the whole process.
