Turo alternative: beige 2022 Ford Escape Titanium in Java

Turo alternative and the 2022 Ford Escape Titanium

If a rental car is the plan, the 2022 Ford Escape Titanium 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.

A note on Java

We have no location in Java; CarmaCars rents from Toronto, about 1,639 km away. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Java starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.

The pages for Selby, Lowry and Sitka cover the areas next door.

Reading the spec sheet

The engine is the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Combined fuel use is 7.8 L/100 km: about 23 litres for 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel at our price setting.

Inside and out

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

When the Escape makes sense

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Rent it from us

This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below.

How it works

Tell us the car and the dates in a request. There is no fee for asking. You receive an offer with the price, the deposit and what is included. If you approve, you pay and the car is yours for those dates.

Each car shows its own extra kilometre rate, so nothing surprises you later. A week or more is priced at the weekly rate, from 7 days. We need at least 2 hours of notice before a pickup.

What you need to rent

You need to be 18 or older at pickup, with an Ontario G2 or G licence valid for the whole rental. If you are under 26, expect a young driver fee each day; there is no upper age limit. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.

The CarmaCars Protection Plan is one of three options for damage to the car; the others are OPCF 27 on your policy or a card with rental car benefits. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. Name every driver in your request, and each is checked before pickup.
