Turo – A More Personal Car Sharing Experience

View all 8 Photos

Created for people who prefer a personalized service and more variety when choosing a rental car, Turo makes car sharing smarter and more convenient than ever before. Even though it is around 30% cheaper than a classic car rental agency, this is not the main selling point of the service. What Turo brings to the market is a personal touch and a new way to drive a rented car. The focus is cleverly shifted from simply driving around the city to savoring a new experience, seeing the city in a new light. Drivers can sign up for the service and search for the car model they want from a list of locally-owned vehicles, getting directly in touch with the owners to arrange a meeting point. The locals then offer unique tips and directions, providing their own recommendations for enjoying the city in a different way. It’s a fantastic opportunity to discover new locations, good restaurants that may be farther away from the city center, special events, or local spots that are hidden from sight and from recently arrived visitors. The cars are varied, to suit any need and taste, from eco-friendly vehicles to ultra-stylish cars, and they are often brought to a hotel or an airport by the owners, for more convenience. Turo is available across the country and you can sign up for the service here, whether as a driver or as a car owner.
