Turo alternative: white 2021 Audi Q5 Progressiv in Ruby

Turo alternative: the 2021 Audi Q5 Progressiv

For a rental car, the 2021 Audi Q5 Progressiv could fit; below, the figures and how booking works. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.

The Q5 and Ruby

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Ruby. CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 250 km from Ruby, and does not deliver there.

If you are near Ruby, Zadow, Castile and Silver Lake are close too.

Specs, explained

The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive and a 7-speed automatic. It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

Expect about 26 litres for every 300 km, going by its 8.8 L/100 km combined rating. On electricity alone it is rated for about 644 km before the gas engine takes over. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $13.64, and a 300 km weekend about $40.92.

Space, size and seats

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length. NHTSA lists it at 4.68 m long. It fits most condo and driveway spots.

Is it right for your trip?

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.

Renting the Q5 from CarmaCars

If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

From request to keys

Pick the car and the dates that suit you, then send a request. There is no payment at that point. We send the offer to your account and your email, with the total shown. If the offer works for you, approve and pay to confirm. If not, you owe nothing.

Each car shows its own extra kilometre rate, so nothing surprises you later. A single booking can run up to 365 days. For longer, it renews month after month. Allow 2 hours or more between your request and the pickup time.

Who can rent

Drivers from 18 up, with an Ontario G2 or G licence, are welcome. Each day of the rental carries a young driver fee if a driver is under 26. 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 about 1 hour ahead of pickup and released after the return. Licence and identity checks happen before the booking is confirmed.
