No. Unlike rental car companies, Turo is a car rental marketplace where you can book directly from trusted local vehicle owners in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s licence and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.
