Drive a BMW

Refined sports-luxury cars

BMW cars are self-styled as the ultimate driving machines. It’s hard not to agree. This car maker is a premium powerhouse with exceptionally desirable cars rolling off its production lines.

The diversity of BMW’s range is impressive, from the chic-and-compact i3 to the luxury offerings in the form of the lavish 8 Series and the brutish-yet-beautiful X7. And anything badged with the brand’s iconic M promises extra thrill in the ride. Filter your search on Turo to find the BMW car rental in the UK that fits your bill.

Not your average cars

Sure, there are other premium German car brands to choose from. But when you’re behind the wheel of a BMW, there’s a je ne sais quoi about it. Is it the super responsive drive? The near-perfect handling? It’s hard to put your finger on just one thing that makes a BMW a BMW.

Sporty and stylish

Each meticulously considered curve and angle, the frown of the headlights, and the carefully designed grilles give BMWs their aggressive — and instantly recognisable — good looks. And that’s all before you step into the cabin, where the driving experience matches every expectation the sporty exterior suggests.

Something for everyone

From the electric i3 (that packs a punch despite its bijou proportions) to the eye-catching Z4 roadster and the full suite of numbered BMW series that run from 1 to 8, it’s easy to lose count of just how many models of BMW are available. And that’s all before a dizzying spectrum of trims and engine types to suit different drivers and budgets.

Top BMW models

BMW 3 Series

The premium-yet-practical BMW 3 Series ticks a lot of boxes. Not too big, not too small, plus those unmistakable signature BMW aesthetics and a dizzying choice of specs, engines, and trims (including the coveted M3) make this a brand favourite and a popular option in the UK and beyond.

BMW X5

The impressive BMW X5 is chock full of tech — particularly the post-2018 models. First and foremost, it’s a joy to drive, making the X5 one of the top options for UK road trips on Turo, although the larger X6 and X7 would do nicely, too. Whichever BMW SUV gets your attention, round up the kids, fill the boot, and head off on an incredible adventure.

BMW i8

BMW’s first foray into hybrid sports cars was with the radically futuristic plug-in hybrid i8. It was only made for two years between 2018 and 2020, making it a sought-after car on Turo for drivers to step through the dihedral doors and experience killer driving dynamics encased in design-led aesthetics.

What protection plan options are available on Turo?

When booking a car on Turo, you’ll choose between three protection plans — Premier, Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of protection that’s right for you.

Is third-party auto liability insurance provided for trips on Turo?

How can I drive unlimited miles during my trip on Turo?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit. On the vehicle pages, you’ll see the total miles or kilometres you’re allowed to drive under the heading “Distance included.” You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the “Unlimited distance” filter.

What payment methods does Turo accept?

Turo accepts most credit cards issued by major financial institutions, including American Express and Discover cards, as well as debit cards with a Visa or Mastercard logo that are linked to a checking account.

Apple Pay and Google Pay on mobile devices are also accepted, but Turo does not accept cash or checks as valid payment methods.

You can cancel and get a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts. If you book a trip with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have one hour after booking to cancel free of charge. If you cancel after the free cancellation period ends, you will be charged a small cancellation fee.

Is Turo a rental car company?

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