How to Read CRS/GDS Codes

Cars2Go.ca utilizes an industry standard vehicle chart to define groups. This easy to use chart consists of 4 categories. Each position in the 4-character vehicle code represents a definable characteristic of the vehicle. Car codes are created by selecting 1 character of each column and combining them into a 4-character car code. (Example:CDAR = Compact car/4 door/automatic transmission/air conditioned.)
