I was getting a Regal this weekend to go to Niagara and was told by National employee that Regal is not fuel efficient due to having a turbo charged engine and suggested to get a Altima or Sonata instead. Did he give me wrong information?

New here, but frequent EA renter at YYZ. Spoke with the Manager there, he said Mustangs are coming, possibly Camaros too. No Challengers as they get written off too easy.

Its not as good as a sonata but still a 4 cylinder engine. As a Pcar goes its waayy better than a 300 lacrosse and maxima that uses a v6 engines. I was averaging around 7.9l/100km with the regal mostly highway driving.

Thanks for your reply. It seems it's even better than Sonata. Sonata fuel economy was 8.4 L/100KM on highway driving (Toronto to Niagara and return).

EA: Sea of Sonata's (Mix of trims from GL to Sport), Patriot, Altima
ES: More Sonata's (including odd 2014 model), 14 Charger, Equinox, Wrangler, Escape, Traverse, Journey, Maxima, Altima
Overflow had mix of SUV's - Explorer, Traverse, Durango. Luxury had 2 Q50's, QX50, and A4
Got Q50 on Premium res since I was doing a one day rental. Has Premium and Navi package, but no SD for Nav. Annoying to have the top screen ask for the SD all the time.

I think it was a stoke of luck on timing. The attendant who greeted me asked for my reservation, and when I mentioned Premium, he was about to point at the sole Maxima (the only Premium on the lot), but someone was already in it. He went to the booth and did something on the computer. I got asked if I wanted a luxury car, and he gave me the keys to one of the Q50s. Returning the car I noticed that my reservation was bumped up to Luxury, but since I was Exec Elite, I paid the Premium rate. Cost me $11 more over the Fullsize rate, but I can suck it up since it was just a day, and better than the $60 upsell rate you were given.

Yup, 2015 Edge SEL AWD (201A) with the Canadian Comfort Package (leather seats and 6-way power passenger seats) and the now optional 3.5L V6.
A few 2015 Fusion Titaniums just arrived as well. (AWD, Sunroof, Heated and Cooled Seats, Heated Steering Wheel)
