The SUVs and crossovers that get the most love
The Jeep Wrangler is the ultimate expression of Jeep. It may have throwback looks, but it has the toughness to take on any of today’s adventures. Book a Jeep Wrangler rental alternative to get even closer to the world around you.
Futuristic falcon wing doors, a giant panoramic roof, and Ludicrous Mode acceleration. Sure the battery-powered Tesla Model X is the quickest SUV in the world, but it also outperforms the competition in the rest of the typical SUV duties.
The Honda CR-V is the compact SUV for the sensible driver. Its combination of reliability, comfort, and affordability makes the CR-V an easy rental alternative if you’re looking for an experience with no fuss and no worry.
Emanuel’s service and Audi was top notch!! Look forward to booking with him again next time I’m in San Francisco.
Amazing service great clean car definitely recommend using bud anytime I come to San Francisco 😁
Kailun was very flexible and communicative! Would rent from again if ever back in San Francisco.
Car was great nice and clean , smooth amazing fast ride !! Driving through San Francisco in style definitely recommend renting one !! 👌🏻👌🏻 anytime I’m in San Francisco I will be using Ali.
Very smooth process, Jyoti was very accommodating and an overall nice person to deal with. Car was perfect for San Francisco!
Kevin is an incredible host. Highly recommended for anyone traveling in the San Francisco area. 5 stars every time.
Awesome car and super easy pick-up/drop-off. Was an amazing touch for our honeymoon week in San Francisco.
What an amazing car. Took it for a small trip to Yountville and back to San Francisco. Handled everything easy no problems. Excellent communication from the owner from get go. Will rent this same car again in future
Tony is great always use him when I travel to San Francisco always on point definitely five stars and recommended 👌🏻👌🏻

4 days in Napa and this car was fantastic! Great and timely delivery and pickup. Highly recommend for San Francisco or the General area. 🥇🥇🥇
Ali is fantastic! Quick to respond, Tempe car was in mint condition and drove like a beauty. Deff gonna book it again when I come by San Francisco!
Great value for San Francisco Turo options. We fit two full size luggage items, two carry on luggage items, and still had seating for 3 people! Ashley was communicative and awesome to rent from. Great experience!
Sonya was amazing and made our trip in and out the airport so seamless and stress free. She was always on time and very responsive. It makes me feel good knowing we can always fly in to San Francisco and have a go to for car rentals! We rented a car seat as well - everything was spotless. Thank you!
Great car... handles amazing and perfect for the San Francisco steep hills and many man u sharp turns.. azfar was a great host to top it all off. Book with him...
Definitely a great car to rent while in San Francisco. Nice, new, convenient car and the pick up and drop off are a breeze too! Zinan's fastrak came in a clutch when we were headed to the airport. Overall a great value!!
Eric was the best Turo host I’ve had so far. This was our overall best experience that we’ve had with Turo since we signed up for the app a few years ago. We will definitely rent from him again when we are back in San Francisco. If I could give more stars I would.
Sam was very responsive. Pickup and drop off was very easy. Vehicle was nice, clean, drove well, spacious enough for our family of 4 including luggage and snowboard. The snowboard was accommodated because the middle back seat folds down unlike some SUVs.
Best rental car of my life! And Semo was super helpful and quick to respond to my questions. Thanks Semo!
Dejoun was ABSOLUTELY top notch. Not only was he willing to accommodate my request but he did it with a 3 hr notice on the same day after my other turo host canceled me with ONLY a 3 hr notice ( even though I booked my trip 3 weeks before). Dejoun was an EXCELLENT with communication on any questions I had and was very prompt in resonding. He keeps his cars ( at least the one we rented) very clean and well taken care of. I took my family to South Lake Tahoe for the weekend and even in the snowy conditions the Yukon xl drove like a CHAMP and got us to and from safely. Will definitely be renting from him again amd highly recommend.
The best rental car and Turo experience I ever had! The car was awesome! We went to lake Tahoe for ski and it was rainy and snowing but the car was so safe, spacious, and extremely comfortable! Emanuel was also the BEST 🙏👌 He was so kind to bring the car to us and very communicative! AMAZING! I will DEFINITELY use this again soon 😇 Thank you so much Emanuel 🙏
Kenneth was very accommodating when I did not show up on time (I was unaware of Turo policy to arrive when the rental starts). Car was a little dirty but not a huge deal. The car itself is amazing! Drives incredibly well, and comes with Sirius radio. Would absolutely book again.
CX-5 drives really well! Very clean with no issues except for the occasional ding but I’m thinking it’s impossible to not get a few of those in San Francisco. Forgot something in the vehicle and Dylan was very accommodating and understanding. Would definitely rent again.
First time using the app. Very easy. The car was very close to where I was staying in SoMa neighborhood. The car was nice and clean. Tony was nice, quick to respond, and very flexible! When I’m in San Francisco next I will definitely use Tony for renting a car!
Kevin was excellent in providing directions as well as responding to any inquiries we had at any time, he always answered us as promptly as possible. The car we rented was perfect for our trip, and it was extremely easy to get to the vehicle from the airport. Would definitely use Turo again, and rent from Kevin next time I am in San Francisco!
Kenneth's jeep was the perfect vehicle for our Tahoe trip. Lots of new snow on the roads wouldve been kinda scary in any other car. Communication was prompt and pick up and drop off was a breeze. Jeep is brand new with 9k on the odometer and was clean and smell free. Would definitely rent again for our next tahoe trip.
Sasha helped us out in getting our rental situated last minute when our previous rental had a nail in the tire. Good communication.
Michael’s Explorer was perfect for our weekend trip to Tahoe! We felt super safe, car was clean and ran smoothly. Easy pick up and drop off, and Michael was super responsive. Would rent again!
We had a five-star trip in Fayçal's Porche. Everything about the experience was wonderful - it was easy to pick up, the car is in perfect condition, and it was a blast to drive. We drove up to Yosemite in the winter and we were confident on the roads. Both my husband and I want to buy this car now! Also Fayçal is a pleasure to work with. We would absolutely rent this car again.
Alejandro was a great host. He was very friendly, accommodating and supplied the car with sanitizer for our trip! The car was also very fun to drive. I would rent this vehicle again :)
Kent was absolutely amazing!! He was so flexible and accommodated us for slightly late pickup of the car as we had to squeeze in an attraction that was only open that morning for us to make it work. He also was flexible to pickup the car the night before that saved us some money for parking that car in expensive decks downtown San Francisco. At the start of trip Kent spent so much time patiently walking us through Tesla controls as this was the first time I was driving Tesla. The car was clean and amazing and made the trip very safe and enjoyable for us despite a rain storm that we had to drive through to Monterey. Kids loved it and fell in love with the car. The falcon doors are awesome on the car. Kent was awesome with communication and always replied to our questions very promptly. We highly recommend that you rent from him. Next time we are in San Francisco we know who to call first to book the car. Overall our experience with Turo was phenomenal and I don’t think I’ll go back to renting car from rental companies. Thank you Kent for being so nice to us!!
Fantastic car! Super accessible! Had a great day driving up to Napa. Monk was great to deal with and made pick up and drop off a breeze
Monk was very kind throughout the process. The car did end up getting a flat tire during the trip which was out of anyone’s control but it drove well while it lasted.
Jeremiah's car was great for our trip to Tahoe even with a snowstorm hitting. Jeremiah was also very flexible and understanding when we were forced to extend our stay an extra night due to the storm. Highly recommend!
Perfect car for a day trip to Napa. John is easy to communicate with and made pick up and drop off of the car very simple.
Great host with the perfect car for a nice weekend getaway. The whole process was smooth and very accommodating. Would definitely recommend and even rent again.
Lee’s Q3 was very clean and in great condition. Lee even left hand sanitizer and wipes in the car. I used the car to go to Tahoe for a ski trip, and felt very confident with the Q3’s all wheel drive.
Rebecca is one of the best hosts I have booked with. She is very understanding & accommodating. Her husband is another gem of a guy who came to drop off car & showed immense patience whilst waiting at the terminal. Definitely will book again. 😊
Excellent for a trip to Tahoe. Our skiis, saucers, & tube fit with plenty of room. Thank you so much!
Susanna is very responsive and helpful. Her pick instructions were very clear! The Jeep treated us very well during our trip to Tahoe. Highly recommended!
Great, clean car. We rented it for a weekend in lake tahoe. Easy pickup and drop off.
Sasha was super communicative and quick to respond! The Model Y was perfect for our day trip to Tahoe. He answered all of my questions and was kind and respectful in my some of my confusion learning how to use Turo and the Tesla. Thanks Sasha!
Faizal was a great host. He provided the most in most of my turo trips during the pandemic.
Getting access to the car was quick and simple. It was clean and in good condition. Would rent again!
My trip was great, the RDX was really clean and Maggie was super easy going. Getting the car and getting on the road was a simple, quick experience and it was a HUGE relief to know that Maggie offers contactless pick-up and drop off especially during these troubling times, all in all it was a wonderful trip and I’m very satisfied I took it, Thanks again Maggie!!
Alejandro was great to work with and very responsive. We had a blast driving his Volvo and highly recommend renting through him!
Alejandro was super easy to work with and even let me use his parking spot for my Vespa while I rented his XC60! Highly recommended.
Beautiful vehicle, rides smooth and feels very safe. Caroline keeps it in pristine condition and was very easy to communicate with! Would love to rent again!
Saviour was very communicative, and the car was as pictured. Had a great trip, would recommend. Thanks mate!
I had an awesome trip with this car! Super clean, great communication, easy pick up and drop off, and just a fun car to drive in general.
Ramit was an awesome host. I would definitely rent from him again in the future. The car was so awesome to drive!
Vehicle was super clean and a great ride! Communication with LittleGetAround was superb and made renting a breeze. Thanks again!!
This was my 1st time renting from Turo and had a wonderful experience renting the Model Y.
Rahul’s Tesla was the perfect car to take on our trip to Napa! His communication went above and beyond expectations from the second we booked to the moment we returned the car. The car was very clean and in brand new condition. Highly recommend Rahul for your next trip in California!
Michael provided very clear instruction, and really communicative! The car was clean (even an alcohol wipe was provided) and worked great. Would rent again!
Had a great experience with the car. Drives really well on the road and in the snow! Faycal was really nice and pick up/drop off was easy! Will be renting one of his car soon! Thank you!
Susanna was super communicative and helpful during the booking. 150k+ miles on a Jeep was concerning, but it she keeps it well maintained and the car gave us no issues at all. Highly recommend renting from her. Thank you!!
Monk was courteous, accommodating, and took the time to show me how everything works and answer all my questions. I would rent from him again.
James was an excellent, clear, and fast communicator. He arrived perfectly on time for both pick up and drop off. The Outback was clean, handled well, and I don’t have a single minor complaint about anything. Would absolutely rent again.
The car was really nice to drive - I used it for a Tahoe trip and it was perfect for the snow. Would highly recommend and would love to use this car again! Tony was also very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Thanks for making it such a smooth and easy experience, Tony!
Allison is always responsive and easy to work with. The car feels top of the line for its model, very comfortable ride. See you next time!
Faycal was very accommodating with us adjusting our schedule. This was our first time using Turo and he made everything simple and easy. We will definitely be using Faycal again.
A great experience! Nice car, easy pick-up and drop-off. Sam was accommodating and very responsive. Thank you!
Sean’s Jeep Renegade was perfect for a weekend of exploring. It’s small enough to parallel park in the city and versatile for when we drove a little into the mountains. He was gracious with pick up/drop off and the car was spotless. 10/10 recommend.
Elizabeth is an amazing host. She was very flexible, generous, and accommodating around hiccup and drop off and the car was great. Highly recommend!!
Car was really clean, up to date and easy to drive. Properly equipped with winter gear for use in the snow when my group and I visited Yosemite. Janet made it super easy to book and drop off. Would definitely book again for my future expeditions.
The process was very fluid. Adrian did respond super fast to all messages and was super-reactive. Pick-up and Drop-Off were more than easy. At pick-up, the car was spotless and had multiple sanitize bottles and wipes. I was feeling like driving my own car.
