Nissan Z car rental with twin-turbo thrills and a storied name
Drive a Z
A Nissan Z rental puts a 400 hp twin-turbo V6, rear-wheel drive, and two seats at your command. You pick how you shift, too — a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic. It's a modern sports coupe with decades of Z heritage, and a standout choice for a Nissan rental on Turo.
On Turo, you book your Z from a local vehicle owner on the car rental marketplace. You choose the exact car you want and arrange pickup that fits your plans.

Twin-turbo V6 power, sent rearward
The Z runs on a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 that makes 400 hp and 350 lb-ft, all of it sent to the rear wheels. Performance trims add launch control and a mechanical limited-slip differential. Want more? The NISMO trim raises output to 420 hp and 384 lb-ft.
Your choice of three pedals or paddles
The Z lets you decide how involved you want to be — pick a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic. The manual comes with SynchroRev Match, which matches engine revs on downshifts so each gear change feels smooth. It's classic three-pedal driving with a helpful co-pilot riding along.
Prefer to keep both hands on the wheel? The nine-speed automatic adds paddle shifters, so you can take charge on a winding road and let the car handle the shifting in traffic. Transmission type varies from car to car, so check the listing before you book.
A cockpit wired for the drive
The Z puts the numbers that matter right in front of you. A 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster can display boost pressure and oil temperature. Glance at the top of the dash and you'll find three more gauges for boost, turbine speed, and voltage — a clear nod to Z heritage.
For everything else, an eight- or nine-inch touchscreen (depending on trim) runs Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Connect your phone, queue up your directions and your playlist, and keep your focus on the road ahead.
Stand out with a Z
Among sports car rentals on Turo, the Z pairs twin-turbo power with decades of Z heritage. Book one for weekend canyon drives, coastal escapes, a special occasion, or a test drive before you buy a sports car of your own. It's a two-seater with 6.9 cu ft of trunk space, so pack light.
Top Z features
Heritage design
Three things make the Z distinct: heritage design, Heritage Edition and NISMO variety, and everyday driver-assist confidence.
The Z wears its history on the outside. A raised hood bulge recalls the original Z, while crescent-shaped LED running lights up front nod to an early Z. Out back, the taillights draw on the Z cars of the '90s.
If you've admired Z cars for years, you'll spot the references the moment you walk up. If you're new to the badge, you still get a long, low coupe that earns a second look in any parking garage. Either way, it's a car you'll want to photograph before you hand back the keys.
Heritage Edition and NISMO variety
The Z comes in more than one flavor, and the one you drive depends on the listing. The 2026 Heritage Edition stands out with Midnight Purple paint, bronze 19-inch RAYS wheels, and a carbon fiber rear spoiler. It's a bold pick if you want a Z that looks as special as the occasion.
The NISMO is the most powerful Z, with 420 hp, NISMO-tuned suspension, NISMO-tuned brakes, and Recaro seats. Availability on Turo varies by listing, so read the description and check the photos before you book. That way, you know exactly which Z will be waiting for you at pickup.
Everyday driver-assist confidence
The Z's performance comes with a safety net for everyday miles. Standard Intelligent Cruise Control helps you keep a set following distance on long highway stretches. Blind-spot monitoring helps you change lanes with more confidence.
Lane Departure Warning alerts you if you start to drift out of your lane. Intelligent Forward Collision Warning monitors up to two vehicles ahead, giving you an earlier heads-up when traffic slows. It's a useful set of tools when you're finding your way around a new city, so you can relax between the fun parts.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Z
Get to know your Z
A little prep goes a long way with a low, rear-wheel-drive two-seater. Here's what to know before you pick up your Z.
The Z seats two, has a small trunk, and sits low. With 4.8 inches of ground clearance, take steep driveways slowly. Check the listing for transmission type so you get the manual or automatic you want.

Z driving tips
Rear-wheel drive and 350 lb-ft of torque make the Z lively, so ease into the throttle on wet roads. On the manual, let rev-matching help you through downshifts. The ride is firm, so expect it to feel busy over rough pavement.
Combined fuel economy is around 20 mpg in the Performance trim, so plan your fuel stops on longer road trips.
How much does it cost to rent a Z?
The cost to rent a Z varies by year, trim, location, and trip length. Recent listings showed a 2025 Z near Los Angeles at $149/day and a 2024 Z in the San Francisco Bay Area at $168/day. Both prices reflect the average daily price for a three-day trip.
Turo applies automatic discounts on trips of seven or more days, 14 or more days, and 30 or more days. Planning a longer stay? Explore long-term car rental on Turo.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
