Turo alternative: black 2021 Audi A4 Progressiv in Patsy

Turo alternative: the 2021 Audi A4 Progressiv

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

Patsy and the A4

Patsy is about 1,196 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Patsy starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.

Neighbouring areas include Elaver, Cherry Valley and Midland.

The numbers in plain words

It uses the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid and all-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

The EPA rates it at 8.3 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 25 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $12.87 to drive 100 km.

Who it is for

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Room inside

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 340 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Can you rent one?

Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

Your request, our offer, your keys

Send the request with your dates first; no money changes hands at that stage. The offer comes from a person, not a robot, and it carries the full price. You have 24 hours to approve an offer, and payment comes with your approval.

Rates are set car by car and shown on each car's page. From 7 days, the weekly rate applies; up to 365 days, a trip never costs more than the monthly rate. Requests for later the same day work when there are at least 2 hours to spare.

What you need to rent

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more are the starting point. There is no upper age limit, and drivers under 26 pay a fee for each day. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.

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. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.

Ready when you are

Request a car, read the offer, and decide. That is the whole process.
