Renting the 2012 Saab 9-3

This 2012 Saab 9-3 page is written for a rental car: the car first, then renting it from us. 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

It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

At 9.7 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 29 litres of fuel. Expect about $15.04 per 100 km at our price setting.

Inside and out

As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. For luggage, 850 litres means bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

Who the 9-3 suits

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Rent it from us

Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.

How booking works

Every rental begins with a request from you. It costs nothing and it does not hold the car. We check the calendar and your details, then send you an offer with the total. Say yes to the offer and pay; that is when the booking is made.

Each car shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. One booking runs up to 365 days, and a longer stay renews with a new agreement. Give us 2 hours or more before the pickup and we can usually make it work.

Driver basics

Drivers 18 and older can rent with a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee for each day, shown on each car's page. At the handover we check your licence and the card in your name.

Third-party liability is in the rate; for the car, bring OPCF 27, use your card's benefit, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Deposits differ by car. Each car's page shows its amount. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.

When you know your dates

The quickest way to a price is a request with your dates. It costs nothing.
