Car rental, reimagined.
Car sharing (n): Like renting a vacation home. But with cars.
With hosts across Canada, the US, UK, Australia and France, Turo is the world’s largest car sharing marketplace. Their mission? Putting the globe’s 1.5 billion vehicles to better use (and helping you skip the rental counter). Luckily, KAYAK makes it easy to find a car on Turo at the right price. Here’s how.
Real quick, what’s car sharing?
Just like you can rent out a room – or your whole home – to travellers looking for something special, Turo lets car owners apply the same economics to renting out their cars. It’s peer-to-peer at its best, letting you book real people’s vehicles and take them for a spin on your trip. It’s especially useful for when you’re looking to impress (like on a bachelor/ette weekend away), when you’re travelling on a budget or when you’re travelling to an area where rental car pickings are slim (like during convention season).
How it works.
What’s included.
Turo offers more than your typical rental car service. For starters, all additional drivers are completely free. Third party liability insurance is also included on all trips, so you can drive with peace of mind. For an additional cost, you can add Extras such as car seats, beach gear or even a portable speaker, depending on the host.
Early Bird and Multi-Day Discounts are offered by most hosts, along with the occasional opportunity to receive Turo travel credits. All this does is add more flexibility to your trip, so you’re not beholden to strict policies like arriving at the counter during a specific window of time.
Why choose Turo.
3 words: Options. Convenience. Flexibility.
Where to score deals.
We can help with that. Start your car share search on KAYAK by inputting your dates and destination. Be sure to select “Same drop-off”, then hit search. Next, filter for “Car sharing” results and click Turo under “Rental agency”. And voilà – you’ve scored yourself some reasonably priced wheels for your next trip. ✨
