About the 2012 Ford Taurus
This page looks at the 2012 Ford Taurus for anyone searching for van rental. Seven seats or more take a whole group in one vehicle.
Reading the spec sheet
It runs the 3.5L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The EPA rates it at 11.1 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 33 litres. In money, 1,000 km costs about $172.10 at our price setting.
How big it is
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. In plain terms, its 566 litres of luggage space hold bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
A good match for
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Can I rent it?
Ask for your dates, and we reply with 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. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Renting: the basics
Every driver must be 18 or older with an Ontario G2 or G licence. Drivers below 26 pay a fee each day of the rental, and older drivers pay none. We need to see the card and the licence of the person renting.
Three options cover damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your auto policy, a credit card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. There is a deposit for each rental, taken shortly before pickup rather than at booking. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.
How it works
You ask for the car you want for the dates you need. The request itself is free. Next comes our offer, with the confirmed car and every charge on one page. Approve it and the car is booked; decline it and nothing happens.
Prices on each car's page are before tax, and the offer adds the tax. A week or more is priced at the weekly rate, from 7 days. Last-minute plans are fine with at least 2 hours of notice.

Pick a car, send a request, and decide once you see the offer.
