Turo car-sharing app
Peer-to-Peer car-sharing marketplace alternative to rentals
Screenshots
Hunter's comment
If you're tired of renting from big rental agencies or hourly, and Uber and Lyft don't make sense for your mobility needs, then check out Turo, the peer-to-peer car-sharing app for their marketplace.
Features for renters
- Over 850 car makes and models to choose from
- Daily rental rates are reasonable
- According to the car-listing requirements, it looks like you can't get a salvaged car.
I installed this app and looked for cars in Philadelphia and Florida and found matches right away.
How it works for car owners
- Get paid directly within 5 days of the trip's end, via direct deposit
- Let Turo automatically set your car's daily rental price or you can set the price manually yourself
- Your typical earnings are 65% to 85% of the trip price
- Insurance: you are protected with $1 million dollars of coverage ... Be sure to read the actual fine print on the website for current info!
- You can easily list your car by filling out a short form and adding pics of your car and your license plate number. Note that it requires you not have a salvaged vehicle. Be sure to go to the website for the latest requirements.
My review:
I was surprised at how many nice-looking shiny cars there were, including the Porsche Boxter for $295 a day and the Tesla!
For the renter: Be sure to read the fine print to make sure you don't get charged extra fees etc.
Conclusion
If you find a good car and good car owner nearby and do your homework, then this could be a great alternative.
UX Critique:
Renter should be able to search by zip code. Currently, when you enter the zip code, it shows you address number matches in either a random area or the last area you searched.

Hi @sickux, Steemhunt really only likes accepts the main product website. Could you please change your weblink (in the Steemhunt app) from the Google Play store to https://turo.com/
@urbangladiator I tried again just now several times and am still getting the Failed to Fetch error repeatedly
it still won't allow me to make the URL change🙇. Can you help me with that?
Yeah, that's a weird error that I sometimes get as well.
Try closing down your browser and then trying again in a brand new session, that usually works for me.
I tried signing into a new browser completely and it still gives me the same error...
@urbangladiator maybe because this item url is already partually in the database? If you do Search for Turo, you will see it but that product url was not 100% correct eithet. Can you ask team to fix it in db?
Ahhhhh, I'm so sorry @sickux... I can't approve this post.... that other inclusion of Turo means that your hunt is against Guidelines 9 (sorry I hadn't gotten that far yet).
Ohhhh ok @urbangladiator hmmmm So if a hunt is delisted due to the hunter error (not problem with the product), it can not be hunted/listed again correctly?
I tried numerous times to make that URL change but i keep getting Failed to Fetch error 😭
I will keep trying tomorrow!
