Our fleet — reliable choices for every trip
NorthStar provides a diverse fleet across Canada designed to match different travel needs and climates. From compact cars optimized for city driving to roomy SUVs that handle family trips and winter conditions, we maintain vehicles to high safety and cleanliness standards. Newer models are prioritized for rental rotation and receive scheduled maintenance checks. We also offer premium sedans for executive travel and hybrid or low-emission options for environmentally conscious customers. Each vehicle listing includes key details such as passenger capacity, cargo space, fuel type, and available add-ons so customers can make an informed selection before pickup. Our branches in major cities stock vehicles that align with regional travel patterns, for example winter-ready vehicles and tire packages in colder regions. Fleet availability updates in real time during booking so customers see accurate options for their dates and locations.
Vehicle categories and typical use
Compact cars are our most popular category for urban trips and short stays. They offer excellent fuel efficiency, simple parking, and are economical for single travellers or couples. SUVs provide extra room for passengers and luggage and are recommended for cross-country travel or trips requiring more ground clearance. Many SUVs can be equipped with winter tires and roof racks for seasonal equipment. Premium sedans combine comfort and style for business travel and special occasions while offering enhanced interior features and quieter cabins. Hybrid and low-emission models are available at select locations for customers prioritizing reduced fuel consumption. Each category includes model examples to set expectations, but actual vehicles may vary by branch. We maintain clear descriptions for passenger capacity, luggage allowance, transmission type, and fuel recommendations so customers can prepare for their journey with confidence.

Preparing for pickup and vehicle expectations
Before pickup, customers receive a confirmation with vehicle category, pickup location, and any selected add-ons. We recommend bringing a valid driver license, a credit card matching the primary driver, and confirmation of optional protections if purchased. Our staff walk through key vehicle features at handover including safety controls, fuel type, and any installed equipment such as GPS or child seats. Fuel policies are clearly described during reservation and on the rental agreement. When returning the vehicle, our team inspects for standard wear and documents fuel level. For one-way rentals and interprovincial travel, customers can request guidance on regional rules and toll equipment. We strive to make the handover process efficient so customers can begin their trip promptly and with confidence.
