For a rental car, the 1997 Saab 9000 is one of many cars on CarmaCars, each with its own page. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Under the hood
Power: the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: 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.
Plan on about 34 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 11.2 L/100 km. At our price setting, it costs about $17.36 to drive 100 km.
When the 9000 makes sense
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
What the 9000 is like
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. At 680 litres, the trunk fits bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Rent this car
This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Your booking, in three steps
Send the request with your dates first; no money changes hands at that stage. Someone on our team confirms the car is free for those dates and sends you an offer with every charge listed. If the offer works for you, approve and pay to confirm. If not, you owe nothing.
Rates are set car by car and shown on each car's page. Longer trips cost less a day: the weekly rate starts at 7 days. Plan for at least 2 hours between sending the request and picking up the car.
Who can rent
An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more are the starting point. A young driver fee applies each day for drivers under 26. Your original licence, not a photo, comes with you to the handover.
Before the keys change hands, one of three options must be in place for the car: OPCF 27, a card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. A deposit is held before each rental; the amount is on the car's page. We verify licences and identity for every renter, with no exceptions.
One more step
Ask for the car, read the offer, approve it if it suits you.
