Turo alternative and the 2017 BYD e6
This 2017 BYD e6 page is written for a rental car: the car first, then renting it from us. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.
What the specs mean
The electric motor is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. It is fully electric: no gas at all, and you return it with the charge it had at pickup. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
At 29.2 kWh/100 km, a 300 km day uses roughly 88 kWh. On paper it goes 301 km between charges, less in winter. The electricity for 100 km comes to about $4.38 at our price setting.
Best uses
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
How big it is
Being a compact SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well. The EPA measures its luggage space at 453 litres, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

Requesting a car
Pick your car, enter your dates and send the request. That is all you do at first, and it is free. If the car is free, you get an offer with the full price; if not, we suggest another car. The booking is confirmed when you approve the offer and pay it.
Each car shows its own extra kilometre rate, so nothing surprises you later. The monthly rate covers a booking of up to 365 days. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.
What to bring
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. We need to see the card and the licence of the person renting.
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. We hold the deposit shortly before pickup and release it after the return. Additional drivers can be added; each one meets the same rules and signs the agreement.
