The short answer
Driving lessons in Mississauga on MrDriver start at $40 an hour, with most instructors between $40 and $60. Rates are set by each instructor and shown on their profile, with no membership or booking fee.
What moves the price in Mississauga
- Where you are in the city. Mississauga is large. An instructor based in Meadowvale collecting you in Port Credit spends real time on Hurontario, and some price for distance.
- Test-centre experience. Instructors who work the Longside Drive centre every week charge toward the top of the range for prep lessons, and it is money well spent in the last two weeks.
- Lesson length and format. Ninety-minute lessons and mock tests cost more per booking but cover more ground.
- Highway time. G-test prep on the 401, 403 and 410 is often priced as a longer lesson.
Packages and road test packages
Five- and ten-lesson packages take a few dollars off the hourly rate. For test day, a road test package includes a warm-up on Derry Road and the industrial streets around the centre, the instructor's insured dual-brake car and a ride home, priced per instructor.
What a Mississauga learner typically spends
- Complete beginner: 15 to 25 hours, $600 to $1,500, or a BDE course plus a few prep lessons.
- Test prep only: 2 to 5 lessons, $80 to $300, plus a road test package.
- G test: 2 to 4 lessons with highway time, $80 to $240.
Add $159.75 for the G1 package and $91.25 for the G road test. See how much driving lessons cost in Ontario for the wider picture.
