SUV rental: 2021 Tesla Model 3 Performance in Ruby

SUV rental with this car

The 2021 Tesla Model 3 Performance for an SUV: the facts first, then the booking. Winter tires are an add-on on the SUVs that offer them.

A note on Ruby

Ruby is about 250 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Ruby.

If you are close to Ruby, you may also be near Zadow, Castile and Silver Lake.

Reading the spec sheet

Its electric motor drives through a 1-speed automatic. It is fully electric: no gas at all, and you return it with the charge it had at pickup. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

At 18.6 kWh/100 km, a 300 km day uses roughly 56 kWh. Rated range: 507 km. Winter and highway speeds bring it down. Every 100 km costs about $2.79 in electricity at our price setting.

The Model 3 in everyday use

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The trunk holds 425 litres by the EPA's count: a family's bags for a long weekend.

Who the Model 3 suits

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits people who want to try an electric car before buying one.

How booking works

You ask for the car online with your dates, and you pay nothing to send it. We send the offer to your account and your email, with the total shown. Your card is charged only when you approve the offer.

Each car has its own page with its photos, its rates and its calendar. Weekly pricing starts at 7 days, and a trip never costs more than that rate for a week. Leave at least 2 hours between your request and the pickup.

Licence, age and card

Drivers 18 and older can rent with a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. No maximum age, and a daily fee only for drivers under 26. Cars marked "no credit card needed" accept a debit card in your name; the others need a credit card.

Damage to the car is handled one of three ways: OPCF 27 on your policy, a credit card's rental car benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is never taken when you book; it comes about 1 hour before pickup. Each renter is checked the same way, before the booking is confirmed.

When you know your dates

Ask for the car, read the offer, approve it if it suits you.
