Want to know if the 1997 Saab 900 suits a rental car? Read on. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Engine and fuel
Power comes from the 2.3L 4-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
A combined rating of 11.2 L/100 km works out to about 34 litres per 300 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $17.36, and a 300 km weekend about $52.08.
Space and size
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. The EPA lists 680 litres for luggage, roughly bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who it is for
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Renting the 900 from CarmaCars
Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. 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. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Licence, age and card
We need every driver to be at least 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence. If you are under 26, expect a young driver fee each day; there is no upper age limit. A card in your name pays for the rental, and we see it with your licence at pickup.
You pick how damage to the car is handled before pickup: OPCF 27, a credit card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit comes about 1 hour before you get the car, not at booking. Everyone who will drive signs the agreement after the licence check.
Request, offer, keys
To book, you request the car for your dates. There is no charge to send it and no obligation. A person checks the request and sends you an offer with the full price. Nothing is charged until you approve it and pay.
Every car on the site has a page of its own, with its calendar and its rates. The longer the booking, the lower the rate a day tends to be. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.
Send a request
Pick a car, send a request, and decide once you see the offer.

Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car itself, have your own policy (OPCF 27), a credit card with rental car coverage, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan, priced in your offer by car and driver age. At $2,500 or more we claim on our fleet policy and you pay the $2,500 deductible.
