Simplified daily pricing in price breakdowns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Today, guests worldwide see transparent prices upfront, so they always know the total trip price including Turo fees. Starting July 28, the daily prices that guests see in price breakdowns will include the delivery fee to further focus on what matters to them when they\u2019re comparing cars: the total price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the \u201cfree delivery” tag will no longer appear in search results, pricing tools can help you set competitive prices that stand out in search results to help drive demand, and free or low-cost delivery will still be a factor in boosting your search ranking<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Updated vehicle listings to help boost bookings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Starting July 28, vehicle listings will have a new, clean look to simplify guests\u2019 browsing experience and help increase bookings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vehicle description and guidelines sections will be removed to create cleaner, more consistent listings to help guests book with confidence. And Turo now highlights key rules and vehicle features so you don\u2019t have to. FAQs and parking info will just be in \u201cTrip details\u201d for guests\u2019 easy reference after they\u2019ve made the booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll notify you once your enhanced profile is available. Then, simply share your profile link to attract new guests or to give returning guests a fast and easy way to book with you again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
