What the figures tell you
It runs the 1.5L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Fuel use is rated 8.1 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 24 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $37.68 at our price setting.
A good match for
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
How big it is
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. For luggage, 368 litres means about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Rent it from us
There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Who qualifies
Ontario G2 or G licence holders aged 18 and up can request a car. There is no upper age limit, and drivers under 26 pay a fee for each day. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.
If your own policy has OPCF 27 or your card covers rental cars, use that; otherwise add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. Licence and identity checks happen before the booking is confirmed.
What to expect when you book
Send the request with your dates first; no money changes hands at that stage. Back comes an offer you can read at your own pace, with every charge on it. The booking is confirmed when you approve the offer and pay it.
The calendar on each car's page helps you pick dates that work. For longer stays, each booking of up to 365 days renews with a new agreement. Last-minute plans are fine with at least 2 hours of notice.
Ask us
A request takes a few minutes and puts a real offer in front of you.
