The car was amazing, just what we needed for my family trip with 6 people. Spacious, comfortable and clean! Shane was also super helpful, with great communication and was flexible with some of our times changing.
Great company to rent from. The Team is really friendly and responsive to any inquiry you may have while on your trip. The range of cars and proces are designed to suit all budgets and requirements and the pick up/drop off is always seamless. Great work!

Amazing experience! The car was great and everything was super easy. Definitely one of the best car rental experiences. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Easy pick up and drop off. John is a great host. Super friendly, easy communication and he takes great care of his cars. Ive booked with a few hosts on turo and John is by far the best on the app. Highly recommend to book. This vehicle in particular was smooth, great sounds, clean and was perfect for my trip to Sydney. Will be booking with John for my future trips. Thanks again!
Everything was perfect as always with UDRIVE but this time i got extra lucky and got extra first class treatment! For the weekend i picked up a brand new byd electric sealion 7 performance model at the crown casino located at the Sydney airport, top notch service provided when picking up and dropping off the vehicle. I must say Bravo 👏🏿 to you and your team @UDRIVE. Very flexible & friendly staff who are always ready to offer plenty of hiring options to tailor the needs to the customers trip incase any changes arise. As for me Udrive provided me that extra extra special better than the rest service. As they offer • top of the line vehicles • friendly, happy and always willing to help team • affordable pricing The initial vehicle i booked was faulty & UDRIVE went above & beyond rectifying the issue. I was provide a brand new byd sealion 7 2026 performance model, quickly arranged for same time pick up, Same specs vehicle, i should probably say its the best vehicle i have hired to date on Turo and itl gets better, UDRIVE even provided a refund for the original hire, enough to book for an extra day of driving.
Fantastic service from start to finish! This 7-Seater SUV was spacious and drove beautifully. The car was clean, reliable, and fuel efficient. Andy was incredibly helpful throughout he booking. Great value for the price 👍
Car was in great condition, easy communication in regards to vehicle pickup, airport transfers and vehicle return instructions. Pricing was also very good and affordable, definitely booking with Turo again in the future. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a family friendly vehicle or any specific vehicle in general.👌
Excellent car. And one of the best I’ve rented. The hosts were great. Provided clear instructions on pick up and return, fuss free and efficient. Definitely recommended.
Great car overall. The car was clean, well-maintained, and drove well. The only issue was that it rained during my trip, and unfortunately the windshield wipers weren’t performing very well, which made visibility a bit difficult and obstructed my view at times. Other than that, everything was good, and I had a positive experience overall.
Quality was great. Cleanliness was immaculate. Communication and helpfulness was top shelf. Great experience for the cost. 10/10 would rent again.
Absolutely exceptional service from start to finish! The team were amazing, so helpful and professional throughout the entire process. Communication was excellent — they responded to my messages instantly and were always there to help whenever I needed anything. The service was truly top, top quality. If there was a 10-star rating, I would honestly give these guys 10 stars! I was extremely happy and pleased with the whole experience, and the car itself was absolutely beautiful. I want to thank the entire team so, so much for making my trip so smooth and stress-free. It was such a pleasure dealing with you all, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a beautiful car and exceptional service. Thank you again for everything! I’ll definitely be using you again. ❤️
I hired an LDV D90 for a trip to the Blue Mountains with my high school friends, and the experience exceeded my expectations. The car was amazing—I genuinely didn’t expect it to be so huge! It was extremely spacious and comfortable, making the drive there and back effortless for a group. The price was incredibly affordable for a vehicle of this size and capability, which made it even better value. The rental experience itself was smooth and hassle-free, and the staff were friendly, helpful, and easy to deal with. Even though the return was after hours, the instructions were very clear and straightforward, which made the whole process stress-free. I would absolutely rent from here again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great vehicle and an easy rental experience.
Great car! Super helpful hosts and very timely pick up and drop off. Perfect for a road trip with ample space. Would definitely recommend!
Excellent host! Great communication, super responsive, and extremely helpful throughout the trip. The car was spotless, well-maintained, and exactly as described. Seamless pick-up and drop-off process. Highly recommended!
★★★★★ This wasn’t my first time renting this car, and I’ve had a great experience every time. The car is always very clean, comfortable to drive, and there are never any unpleasant smells or issues. The host is very friendly and patient, explains everything clearly, and replies quickly whenever I have a question. Pickup and return are always easy and straightforward. I’ll definitely rent from him again.

What kind of license do I need to rent a car on Turo?
You must have a valid, full, active, permanent licence to book a car in Australia. A valid licence is one that’s not expired, suspended, or revoked.
If you have a licence issued by a country outside of Australia, Turo requires you to have a valid permanent licence issued by your home country. If your home country's licence is not written in English, you must also have an International Driving Permit or an official English translation of your home country's licence.
Do I need to be a certain age to rent a car on Turo?
The minimum age to rent a vehicle on Turo in Australia is 21 years of age, with all drivers under 25 years old being subjected to an extra cost of $15/day (a.k.a the Young Driver Surcharge). Plus, if you're looking to hire certain vehicle classes, you must be 25 or older to book a Deluxe Class vehicle, and 30 or older to book a Super Deluxe Class vehicle.
How does car rental insurance work on Turo?
You don’t need personal insurance coverage to rent a car on Turo. When renting a car in Australia, you’ll choose between the Premier (if available), Standard, and Minimum protection plans. Each plan includes varying limits on financial responsibility for damage to a host’s vehicle. All trips include up to $20,000,000 (per event) in legal liability protection. Legal liability protection protects against damage to other people’s property and death or bodily injury (where the legal liability is not covered or capable of being covered by any statutory or compulsory scheme) as a result of an accident involving the vehicle. All protection is provided by Turo Travels Mutual.*
Can I get car rental discounts on Turo?

Is there long term car rental on Turo?
Yes there is — whether you want to rent a car for three days, three months, or even longer, you can on Turo. You’ll find discounted prices on bookings lasting 3+, 7+, or 30+ days, so you can get the best deals and lowest rates possible by booking longer trips.
Is there unlimited kilometre car rental on Turo?
Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you’ll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. 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.
Can other people drive the car that I rented?
Yes, multiple guests can drive the car you rent on Turo, as long as they are all approved to drive. The primary driver (whoever rented the car) can add additional drivers with no fees or additional charges. Only the primary driver can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to request to add additional drivers before your trip starts, though guests can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress.
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 license 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.
