The 2012 Ford Escape: Turo alternative
This page looks at the 2012 Ford Escape for anyone searching for Turo alternative. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Specs, explained
The engine is the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Expect about 22 litres for every 300 km, going by its 7.4 L/100 km combined rating. A 300 km weekend costs about $34.41 in energy at our price setting.
A good match for
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Room inside
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
Getting one from us
Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
How a booking comes together
You start by asking: a car, a start time, an end time. Asking is free. We confirm and price it, and the offer arrives in your account and by email. If it suits you, approve it and pay. Until then, nothing is charged.
Each listing shows the daily, weekly and monthly rate of that car. A single booking can run up to 365 days. For longer, it renews month after month. We need at least 2 hours of notice before a pickup.
What we check
Drivers 18 and older can rent with a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. The daily young driver fee is shown on each car's page, for drivers under 26. Cars marked "no credit card needed" accept a debit card in your name; the others need a credit card.
For damage to the car itself, have your own policy (OPCF 27), a credit card with rental car coverage, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. We verify licences and identity for every renter, with no exceptions.
Next step
When you have your dates, send a request. It is free, and the offer shows the full price.
