The segments of standard, intermediate and full-size cars in Canada traditionally include the following vehicles: Ford Taurus, Pontiac Grand Prix, Ford Mondeo, Hyundai Elantra, Nissan Primera, Pontiac G3 and others.
The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Quebec borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Quebec might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Quebec!
Rental process FAQ
It is really easy to get oriented on local roads because all of them have a unique number. Roads laid from north to south are marked with even numbers, and roads laid from west to east are marked with odd numbers. In addition to the number of the route, road signs always indicate the direction of motion, so it is almost impossible to get lost there.
Highways are very rare in Western Canada. The speed limit on the majority of roads is 80 km/h. The absence of a large number of paid roads is, without a doubt, the main advantage of the roads in this region.
Many roads have special lanes marked as «HOV». These lanes are only for the cars that have at least one passenger in addition to the driver. Because of this reason, it is more convenient to travel on the local roads in a large company. Many drivers intentionally take fellow travelers with them (of course, friends, and not people who hitch on the road).
