RideAlike alternative: 2021 Audi A4 Progressiv in Basic

About the 2021 Audi A4 Progressiv

If a rental car is the plan, the 2021 Audi A4 Progressiv is worth a look; here is why. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.

A note on Basic

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Basic. Basic is about 3,242 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.

Brucite, Gabbs and Gabbs Airport are the neighbouring places on our list.

What the specs mean

Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid; drive: all-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.

Expect about 25 litres for every 300 km, going by its 8.3 L/100 km combined rating. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $128.70.

When the A4 makes sense

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Living with the A4

Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Its 340 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Renting this car

There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

Licence, age and card

The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. We check that the card and the licence carry the same name.

The CarmaCars Protection Plan is one of three options for damage to the car; the others are OPCF 27 on your policy or a card with rental car benefits. Each car's deposit is listed on its page, so you know it before you ask. Each driver named on the booking signs the rental agreement.

From your dates to the handover

The first step is a free request: which car, which dates, and how you want to get it. Someone on our team confirms the car is free for those dates and sends you an offer with every charge listed. Payment happens only after you accept the offer.

The calendar on each car's page helps you pick dates that work. Book by the week from 7 days, or by the month up to 365 days. A request can be for today, as long as the pickup is at least 2 hours away.

Questions first?

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