Basic hire rate database

Technology-driven insights for the GTA and beyond

Basic Hire Rate is a comprehensive industry leading database, which contains geo-comparative vehicle hire rates for all categories of vehicles within the GTA.

In 2025, data from the Basic Hire Rate database maintained by APU was used in the GTA annual, independent review of GTA vehicle hire rates.

This technology-led solution has been built from years of motor claims settlement experience to meet the needs of insurers, solicitors, credit hire operators and the rental industry for a robust, reliable benchmarking tool.

The huge amount of real time data collected on a daily basis enables APU to provide contemporaneous rate evidence in all of our basic hire rate statements as well as our rebuttal statements.
