Tesla Model 3 2019

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an amazing experience renting this Tesla Model 3 through Turo. The car was extremely clean, smooth, comfortable, and honestly even better than I expected. Driving it was a great experience — the acceleration is quick, the technology is impressive, and everything about the car feels modern and easy to use. The host made the whole rental process simple and stress-free. Pickup and drop-off were easy, communication was great, and the vehicle was exactly as described. I really enjoyed having the Model 3 and would absolutely rent it again. If you’re thinking about renting this Tesla, I definitely recommend it. Great car, great experience, and an easy 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This team has an incredible host and co-hosts. The pickup and drop off service was exceptional, and the team was incredibly responsive and communicative. Honestly, you can’t ask for more when dealing with rental cars. One minor downside was finding a single French fry under the driver’s seat and a used dental floss. While it didn’t bother me much, it might have been a concern for someone else. I assumed it was a small oversight during the car’s cleaning and preparation before my rental. Overall, I had a great trip. The car was well maintained, came with a full tank of gas, and was incredibly smooth to drive. I’ll definitely rent from these folks again. They were incredibly helpful and made the entire experience hassle free.

Things to do and places to see in Pennsylvania

Securing a car rental in Pennsylvania opens up a world of possibilities — from the historic streets of Philadelphia to the vibrant culture of Pittsburgh and the scenic drives of the Poconos. Whether you're chasing the energy of big cities or seeking peaceful places to unwind, here are three top attractions to add to your itinerary.

Rent the perfect car
Pocono Mountains

Philadelphia Museum of Art

Home to masterpieces from America, Asia, and Europe, this is a must-visit for art enthusiasts. See Van Gogh’s Sunflowers in person, explore the world’s largest collection of works by Marcel Duchamp, and discover countless other remarkable pieces, as well as stunning architectural spaces and period rooms. A café is available, and the first few hours of parking are free.

Pocono Mountains

No matter the season, the Pocono Mountains are a popular destination packed with activities. Visiting in winter? Gear up for snow and ski slopes. Exploring in summer? Get ready for waterfalls, kayaking, and wooded nature walks. Whatever the time of year, load up your rental car, get ready for adventure, and reach the mountains without a hitch.

Independence Hall & Liberty Bell

A state steeped in history, Pennsylvania offers plenty of iconic landmarks to explore. Visit Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell to immerse yourself in the birthplace of U.S. democracy.

Top tips for renting a car in Pennsylvania


Pennsylvania’s breathtaking landscape, scenic drives, and top cities offer visitors plenty of reasons to lock in a rental car. These handy tips will help you hit the road with confidence, so you can cruise through the Keystone State safely and in style.


What documents and paperwork do you need to rent a car in Pennsylvania?


To rent a car on Turo, you must create a Turo account, be 18 years old or older with a valid driver’s license, and get approved to drive on Turo. When you’re booking your first trip, you’ll go through an approval process by entering your driver’s license information by providing a photo of it and some other information. In most cases, you’ll get approved immediately, and you’ll be set for future road trips, business trips, and family vacations!


What are the road rules and driving conditions in Pennsylvania?


Pennsylvania follows standard U.S. driving and traffic light rules. Always wear a seatbelt, keep your driver’s license handy, and remember that texting while driving is illegal.


In winter, snow and ice are common, especially in popular regions like the Poconos. Roads may close during extreme weather, so be sure to check up-to-date travel information in advance. In the fall, while the scenery is stunning, leaf-covered roads can be slippery, so stay alert. During summer, expect increased tourist traffic near lakes and major landmarks.


In Pennsylvania, general speed limits include:


- Urban areas: usually 25–35 mph

- Rural roads: 45–55 mph

- Highways: up to 70 mph, depending on signage


Are there toll roads in Pennsylvania?


Yes, there are toll roads located in Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-76 & Extensions) is the main toll road stretching east–west across the state, connecting major cities like Philadelphia, Harrisburg, and Pittsburgh.


Do I need to rent a car in Pennsylvania?


While public transport is available in certain cities and metropolitan areas, if you’re planning to explore rural areas — such as northern and central regions like the Allegheny National Forest area, the Poconos, and farmland counties — a car rental is essential. These places have little to no public transit, so having your own ride is a must.


On Turo, you can find car rental options across the state at a range of prices — from SUVs to sports cars — making it simple to find one that fits your style and budget. Gas stations are also scattered throughout the state, making it easy to stay fueled on your journey.


What occasions can I rent a car for in Pennsylvania?


- Vacation car rentals: With so many beautiful nature spots to stroll, hike, and stay overnight, a car rental is essential for getting you and your gear where you need to go. Load up the kids, the tents, and your packed itinerary, and hit the road with ultimate ease.


- Snow trip car rentals: Stay warm and bundled up with a car rental this winter as you get ready to hit the slopes. With SUVs and minivans available, you can pack the trunk with all your gear, travel comfortably with larger groups, and cruise to your destination without the stress.


- Road trip car rentals: Whether you’re after sun-soaked scenic drives or a spot of fishing, a car rental is the only way to go. Take a scenic drive along the Lincoln Highway, stretching from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, stopping at the many small towns along the way. Or pack your fishing gear and head to Lake Erie for a peaceful day by the water.


What rental car types can I find in Pennsylvania?


From SUVs to sports cars and BMWs, there’s a car rental on Turo to suit your travel style and needs. Whether you’re on a strict budget or looking to live it up in luxury, locals are listing a wide range of rentals on Turo with flexible dates and convenient car rental locations across the state.


- SUV Rentals: Opt for rides like the Toyota Highlander — a comfortable, powerful vehicle with snow mode and seating for up to seven people.


- Luxury Rentals: If an SUV is on the agenda but you’re leaning toward luxury, try the Chevrolet Blazer with its sleek design and premium features.


- Economy Rentals: Looking to zip from one iconic city monument to the next? Choose an economical ride like the Kia Soul.


- Electric Vehicle Rentals: For a more sustainable trip along Pennsylvania’s scenic highways, the Tesla Model Y lets you travel in style.


How much does it cost to rent a car in Pennsylvania?


The cost of car rental in Pennsylvania can vary depending on car type, booking length, extras, and delivery. For cheap car rental in Pennsylvania, look out for discounts on longer-duration bookings and early bookings.


How old do you need to be to rent a car in Pennsylvania?


Philadelphia and Pittsburgh agencies generally require you to be 21. On Turo, the minimum age is 18. Turo is a reliable option for younger drivers in PA, allowing 18-year-olds to rent cars when traditional companies effectively shut them out.
