Renting the 2008 Dodge Nitro
If you need a rental car, read about the 2008 Dodge Nitro here, then request it. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
What the specs mean
The 3.7L 6-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The combined figure, 12.4 L/100 km, means roughly 37 litres for 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $19.22.
Who the Nitro suits
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.
Inside and out
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
Getting this car from us
This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Requirements
The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. If you are under 26, expect a young driver fee each day; there is no upper age limit. Bring the card you paid with and your original licence to the handover.
Every rate includes liability to others. Damage to the car is covered by your choice: OPCF 27, your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Deposits differ by car. Each car's page shows its amount. Everyone who will drive signs the agreement after the licence check.
How booking works
Requests come first at CarmaCars. You name the car and the dates, and we take it from there. Then we send an offer. The offer shows the price before 13% HST and the deposit. You decide: approve and pay, or let it go. No charge either way until you approve.
Each car shows its own extra kilometre rate, so nothing surprises you later. Rent for a day, a week or up to 365 days in one booking. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.
