Turo alternative with this car

Want the 1997 Lexus LS as a rental car? Start here: the car in plain words, then how booking works. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.

The figures, translated

Power comes from the 4.0L 8-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

At 12.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 37 litres of fuel. At our price setting, it costs about $21.70 to drive 100 km.

Who rents the LS

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Room inside

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Its 396 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Can I rent it?

Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Tell us your dates and we check this car or the closest match. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.

The steps

The process opens with a request from you, which costs nothing and binds you to nothing. We check the calendar and your details, then send you an offer with the total. Approve it and the car is booked; decline it and nothing happens.

Each listing shows the daily, weekly and monthly rate of that car. Trips of 7 days or more use the weekly rate, and shorter trips never cost more than it. Last-minute plans are fine with at least 2 hours of notice.

What to bring

You must be 18 or older and hold a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. Under 26? You can rent, with a daily young driver fee shown on the car's page. Bring the card in your name that paid for the booking.

If your own policy has OPCF 27 or your card covers rental cars, use that; otherwise add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held about 1 hour ahead of pickup and released after the return. Every driver's licence and identity are checked before we confirm.
