Turo alternative: Subaru Forester

About the Subaru Forester

Searching for Turo alternative? Here is the Subaru Forester: what it is like and how to rent it. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.

Under the hood

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Space, size and seats

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.

When the Forester makes sense

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Our Forester cars

A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Similar cars are below if you need one sooner. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.

Booking, step by step

Nothing to pay up front: the first step is simply a request. We confirm the details and send an offer. It lists the rental, any delivery and any add-ons. You have 24 hours to approve an offer, and payment comes with your approval.

Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. Requests for later the same day work when there are at least 2 hours to spare.

Renting: the basics

At pickup you must be 18 or older and carry your original G2 or G licence. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee for each day, shown on each car's page. Your original licence, not a photo, comes with you to the handover.

Third-party liability is part of every rate, and damage to the car is handled by OPCF 27, a card benefit or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit comes about 1 hour before you get the car, not at booking. Everyone who will drive signs the agreement after the licence check.

Still deciding?

Look through the cars, choose one, and send a request when it suits you.
