Turo
Rent the exact car you want, exactly where you need it
Turo is a peer-to-peer car rental marketplace that connects people who need a vehicle with local hosts who list their personal cars for rent. Renters can choose from a wide variety of vehicles—from everyday commuters to pickup trucks and specialty cars—available at airports, hotels, or local addresses. Hosts earn money by sharing their cars on a flexible schedule.
Car owners list their vehicles on Turo's marketplace, and renters search by location and date to book directly from local hosts for daily, weekly, or monthly trips.
Travelers and locals who want a flexible, peer-to-peer alternative to traditional car rental agencies
