Minivan rental: the 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus. Here is the car in plain words, and how renting one from CarmaCars works. Seven seats or more take a whole group in one vehicle.

Pendleton and the Model 3

CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 1,508 km from Pendleton, and does not deliver there. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Pendleton.

If you are close to Pendleton, you may also be near Back Gate, Pea Ridge and Oaklawn.

Specs, explained

The engine is the electric motor, with rear-wheel drive and a 1-speed automatic. It is fully electric: no gas at all, and you return it with the charge it had at pickup. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

It uses 14.8 kWh per 100 km, so 300 km takes about 44 kWh of charge. Rated range: 423 km. Winter and highway speeds bring it down. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $2.22.

What to expect from the Model 3

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. EPA lists 425 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Who the Model 3 suits

It suits people who want to try an electric car before buying one. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

What we check

Drivers 18 and older can rent with a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. Your original licence, not a photo, comes with you to the handover.

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. Deposits differ by car. Each car's page shows its amount. We check every driver; it takes a few minutes and protects everyone.

Your request, our offer, your keys

Booking is by request, never instant. You send the car and the dates, and a person at CarmaCars reviews it. We check the calendar and your details, then send you an offer with the total. You have 24 hours to approve an offer, and payment comes with your approval.

Each car shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. A single booking can run up to 365 days. For longer, it renews month after month. Plan for at least 2 hours between sending the request and picking up the car.

Questions first?

A request costs nothing, and the offer tells you everything.
