Van rental: Karma

Van rental: the Karma

If a van or a seven-seat car is the plan, the Karma is worth a look; here is why. Seven seats or more take a whole group in one vehicle.

The numbers in plain words

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Best uses

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Can I rent it?

A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. Similar cars are below if you need one sooner. We have no Karma on the site right now. Send a request with the model you want, and we look for one for your dates. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.

Booking with CarmaCars

It begins with your request, sent online in a few minutes, with no payment. A real person reviews your request and sends an offer with the price spelled out. Only an approved, paid offer books the car.

Each car page lists what is included and what costs extra. Short trips and long stays use the same request; the rate follows the length. Allow 2 hours or more between your request and the pickup time.

What we need from you

Drivers 18 and older can rent with a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. A young driver fee applies each day for drivers under 26. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.

You need one of three things in place for damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your own policy, a credit card that covers rentals, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is never taken when you book; it comes about 1 hour before pickup. We check your licence and identity before we confirm, the same way for every renter.

Still deciding?

Send your dates and we will reply with a car and a price.
