What car rental in Mississauga, Toronto includes

The delivery address, date and time are agreed with a manager before the reservation is fixed.

How self-drive car rental in Mississauga, Toronto works

We deliver the car to any address in Toronto and to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) and John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (YHM). The fleet on this page holds 165 cars, from an Economy Mitsubishi Mirage at C$ 38 a day to an Exotic Ferrari F8 Tributo at C$ 2,599.

What is agreed when you book car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

The deposit, insurance excess, delivery fees and discounts are set out in the rental agreement, and the minimum rental age and young-driver surcharge are agreed when booking. Ontario lets a visitor staying under 3 months drive on a valid licence from their own province, state or country. Anyone visiting from another country for more than 3 months needs an International Driver's Permit from their own country, and it cannot be obtained in Canada.

What the rental agreement covers

• Fuel: the car comes clean with a full tank and must be returned with a full tank; missing fuel and a refuelling service fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement.
• Tolls and charges: Highway 407 ETR is cashless, and who pays road charges and penalty notices is agreed when booking.
• Delivery outside the area: arranged case by case and not promised on the site — ask the manager before you count on it.
• Territory and drivers: the minimum rental age, the young-driver surcharge, accepted cards and the territory limit are agreed when booking.

Booking step by step

1. Choose the class and dates: pick from the 15 classes on this page and give the manager the dates you need.
2. Name the delivery point: a street address in Toronto or one of the three airports, with the date and time you want the car there.
3. Agree the terms: deposit, excess, delivery fees and any discount are confirmed and written into the rental agreement.

Choosing a class for car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

Classes and models of car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

Matching a car to your trip in Mississauga, Toronto

A compact SUV such as the Volkswagen Tiguan at C$ 58 a day suits both city driving and a Niagara Falls run, while a sedan like the Toyota Camry Hybrid at C$ 62 is the calmer city choice. The Tiguan carries five with all-wheel drive and a 2.0 L engine; the Camry pairs a hybrid drivetrain with front-wheel drive, which is where its fuel figure comes from on a long highway day.

Smaller budgets work too. The Mitsubishi Mirage at C$ 38 is the cheapest car on the page, a 1.2 L hatchback with five seats and an automatic — enough for two people and a pair of bags around the city. The Buick Encore at C$ 49 and the Mitsubishi RVR at C$ 53 sit a step up in height and space without moving far on price.

For groups, the Honda Odyssey carries 8 seats at C$ 68, and the single 12-seat Passenger van at C$ 182 is the only option at that size on this page.

Where the class choice costs you most

Premium holds 27 cars from C$ 59 — the Acura RDX at C$ 59, the Mercedes-Benz GLA at C$ 61, the Volvo XC60 at C$ 64 — and it runs up to C$ 363. Exotic and Luxury sit at the other end: 14 Exotics from C$ 1,499, with the Ferrari F8 Tributo at C$ 2,599 the most expensive car here, and 9 Luxury cars from C$ 275.

Between them sits the everyday middle. Comfort gives you ten cars from C$ 68 — the Volkswagen Jetta, the Nissan Sentra, the Toyota Corolla — all five-seat automatics with front-wheel drive. Crossover, at 15 cars from C$ 49, is the value pick for anyone who wants ride height without paying SUV rates.

That is also when the delivery address, date and time are fixed.

Electric and hybrid car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

Electric and hybrid cars are a small but specific part of the fleet: 5 electric and 7 hybrid vehicles. Fuel follows one rule — the car is supplied with a full tank and returned with a full tank.

Electric options for car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

We have 5 electric cars from C$ 74 a day, including the Ford Mustang Mach-E and the Tesla Model Y at C$ 91. The Polestar 2 sits at C$ 77 and the Tesla Model 3 at C$ 98, and a Porsche Taycan is available at C$ 600 for a 4-seat electric with real pace. Every one of these is automatic, and the Mach-E is rear-wheel drive while the Model Y and Model 3 are the everyday choices for a family run out of the city. Winter tyres are not required in Ontario, but in Quebec they are mandatory from 1 December to 15 March for Quebec-registered cars, with a fine — a rule that does not apply to cars plated elsewhere, so a car taken here crosses the provincial line without a tyre change.

Hybrid models in the fleet

• Toyota Camry: a 5-seat hybrid sedan at C$ 62 a day with 225 hp, front-wheel drive and a 2.5 L engine — the quiet option for steady city mileage.
• Toyota Sienna: a hybrid minivan at C$ 107 with 8 seats — the only hybrid here that carries a full group.

Hybrids make up 7 of the 165 cars, so they are worth reserving ahead rather than choosing on the day.

Fuel rules for car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

The car comes clean with a full tank and must be returned with a full tank; otherwise the missing fuel and a refuelling service fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement. No other fuel option — a pre-paid tank or full-to-empty — is offered, so the simplest habit is to refuel before you hand the car back. Highway 407 ETR is cashless, with car tolls from 49.93¢ to 119.21¢ a kilometre by zone and time of entry, a C$ 1 trip toll charge, and without a transponder a camera charge of C$ 5.30 per trip plus a C$ 5 monthly account fee.

Longer trips with car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

Weekly and monthly bookings change the arithmetic of longer holds: a week is charged as six days and a month as twenty-one, so the longer you keep the car, the lower the effective daily cost.

How weekly and monthly rates work on longer bookings

Rent-Trip prices a week at six daily rates and a month at twenty-one, so weekly bookings start at C$ 228 and monthly at C$ 798 against the page minimum of C$ 38 a day. A seven-day booking on the cheapest Economy car therefore lands at six days of charges, and a thirty-day booking at twenty-one — the multipliers are fixed, not negotiated.

• Driving to the US: most cars rented in Canada may cross into the United States, but only with permission from the rental point, and restrictions apply to exotic classes and large vans.
• Without written permission: crossing the border breaks the rental agreement and the insurance, so ask before you set off rather than at the frontier.
• At the border: carry your passport; the car's insurance and registration documents travel with the vehicle.
• Winter tyres: not required in Ontario, but mandatory in Quebec from 1 December to 15 March for Quebec-registered cars, with a fine — a rule that does not touch cars plated elsewhere.

Longer trips beyond the city

Out-of-town runs are where the weekly multiplier earns its keep. A Niagara Falls or Muskoka weekend on a C$ 58 SUV costs six daily rates for seven days of use, and a two-week Algonquin Park loop on the same car is charged as twelve days. Highway 407 ETR is cashless and tolled by zone and time of entry — passenger cars pay from 49.93¢ to 119.21¢ per kilometre, plus C$ 1 per trip, and without a transponder the camera charge is C$ 5.30 per trip and C$ 5 a month; who covers tolls and charges is agreed when booking. Pick the class by the longest leg of the trip, not the shortest.

Documents and driving rules for car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

What you bring to car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

• Licence: a valid driver's licence from your own province, state or country; visitors staying under 3 months drive on it as it is.
• International Driver's Permit: needed from another country for visits over 3 months, and it must be obtained before you travel — Canada cannot issue one.
• Insurance and ownership: Ontario requires insurance on the car and the ownership permit carried in original or exact copy; the legal minimum age to drive is 16.
• Passport: carried on any trip that crosses into the United States, alongside the written permission of the rental point.

Alcohol, speed and winter tyres

Ontario treats alcohol behind the wheel as a criminal matter from 0.08 (80 mg per 100 ml of blood), and the warn range of 0.05–0.079 brings an immediate 7-day licence suspension, an 8-hour course and a fine for a first offence — drivers 21 and under and holders of G1 or G2 licences are at zero. Winter tyres are not mandatory in Ontario, but Quebec requires them from 1 December to 15 March for Quebec-registered cars, rental cars included, with a fine — plates from other provinces are exempt. On our side, the car is supplied with a full tank and must come back with a full tank; anything missing is charged with a refuelling fee as set out in the rental agreement.

Cross-border trips and hand-over

Most cars taken in Canada may be driven into the United States, but only with the permission of the specific rental point — exotics and large vans are commonly restricted — and driving across without that written permission breaches both the agreement and the insurance. Take the passport for the border itself. Anything else — the minimum rental age, the young-driver surcharge, the cards accepted, delivery fees and discounts — is agreed when booking and written into the rental agreement, so settle it before the booking is fixed rather than at the hand-over.

Driving in the city and beyond

Highway 407 ETR is cashless, with light-vehicle tolls running from 49.93¢ to 119.21¢ per km by zone and time of entry, a C$ 1 trip toll charge, and without a transponder a camera charge of C$ 5.30 per trip plus a C$ 5 monthly account fee. Who pays tolls, road charges and penalty notices is agreed when booking — it is not a figure printed on this page.

Trip scenarios for car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

Family weeks and group trips

Twelve seats: the single Ford Transit Passenger Van at C$ 182 is the only option at that size here.

Weekend runs and longer loops

For a longer loop, the weekly multiplier decides the arithmetic — a week is charged as six daily rates, so a C$ 58 SUV runs at C$ 348 for seven days.

Business stays in the core

A stay built around Downtown Toronto and Union Station needs nothing more than a Comfort sedan — the Volkswagen Jetta at C$ 68 or the Toyota Corolla at C$ 71, both five-seat front-wheel-drive automatics that fit a parking garage and a client meeting alike. The BMW 3 Series at C$ 74 in Premium is the step up when the car is part of the impression.

Delivery and return for car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

Rent-Trip hands the car over at the address you name, and the address, the date and the time are agreed with a manager before the reservation is fixed.

Hand-over at the address you name

We deliver the car to any address in Toronto and to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) and John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (YHM). Anywhere else is arranged case by case and is not promised on the site, so ask the manager before you build a plan around it.

Returning the car full-to-full

Highway 407 ETR is cashless and tolled by zone and time of entry, and who pays road charges and penalty notices is agreed when booking.

Common mistakes with car rental in Mississauga, Toronto

Documents people leave too late

• International Driver's Permit: a visitor from another country staying more than 3 months needs an IDP from their own country, and Canada cannot issue one — arrange it before you fly.
• Insurance and ownership: Ontario requires insurance on the car and the ownership permit carried in original or exact copy, and the legal minimum driving age is 16.
• Border trips: a passport, plus the written permission of the rental point before you drive into the United States — without it the agreement and the insurance are both broken.

Assuming the multipliers are negotiable

A week is charged as six daily rates and a month as twenty-one, and those multipliers are fixed rather than agreed. A seven-day hold on the cheapest Economy car therefore lands at six days of charges, and a thirty-day hold at twenty-one.

Planning the route around the wrong road

Highway 407 ETR is cashless and tolled from 49.93¢ to 119.21¢ a kilometre for light vehicles by zone and time of entry, with a C$ 1 trip toll charge and, without a transponder, a C$ 5.30 camera charge per trip plus a C$ 5 monthly account fee. Who pays tolls, road charges and penalty notices is agreed when booking, so a route planned on the 407 without that conversation is a route planned on an assumption.
