Drive a Tesla
The future is here, and it’s electric
When it comes to all-electric vehicles, one name rises above the rest: Tesla Motors. This American electric vehicle company gets all the buzz in the auto industry because they’ve proven that EVs can be appealing and exciting luxury vehicles, on top of having low maintenance costs, zero tailpipe or carbon emissions, and being excellent for the Earth.
Driving a Tesla is a fantastic experience and wholly different than driving anything else in the automotive consumer landscape. To sample the revolution for yourself, you can find Teslas right here on Turo.
The ultimate in EV
Tesla is the top brand in battery-electric vehicles because they’ve won car buyers over with impressive driving range, innovative features, performance on par with sports cars from major automakers, and a novelty factor that still hasn’t worn off.
Sleek simplicity
Tesla’s design language is one of sleek minimalism, both inside and out. Tesla models famously come with one giant touchscreen that controls just about every function inside the cabin (like the audio system, climate controls, and vehicle settings), nixing the need for buttons, knobs, or dials.
Mind-blowing speed
Early EVs were known for being slow and sad, but Elon Musk’s creations blew those expectations out of the water. Every Tesla can do zero-to-60 in under six seconds — in some cases, half that — while using only a fraction as much energy as traditional gas-powered vehicles.
Test drive a Tesla on Turo
Curious about all the Tesla hype? Want to sample the Tesla driving experience and find out what it's like to live with an electric vehicle? Book a Tesla here on Turo and test drive it for a few days to get a sense of what the EV life is like. You can test out charging a Tesla at your home, at your office, or at the company’s own charging station infrastructure.
Top Tesla models
Tesla Model 3
The most affordable Tesla is also known for being the most enjoyable to drive, thanks to its compact, low-slung body and athletic handling. Parties involving a full set of adults might want to opt for the bigger models, but if your passenger load is light, this is the Tesla to get for an amazing trip.
Tesla Model S
As the car that put Tesla on the map, the Model S still stacks up well today thanks to its blend of comfort, driving finesse, and interior spaciousness. It also happens to offer the performance to match turbocharged luxury performance sedans, while getting the electric equivalent of quadruple their MPG. Its hatchback body and available third-row jump seats provide an edge in practicality, too.
Tesla Model X
Tesla Model X The Model X will be forever defined by its dramatic falcon-wing doors — a feature you would typically see on a rare exotic vehicle. Beyond the fancy portals, you’ll find a roomy SUV with seating for up to seven (depending on configuration), along with sporty handling and rapid acceleration.

Do I need my own insurance?
Do I need my own insurance?
No, you don’t need personal insurance coverage to book a car on Turo.
In the US, any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your Turo protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland. When booking a car in the US, you’ll choose between three protection plans — Premier, Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of coverage that’s right for you. With each plan, you’re covered with third-party automobile liability insurance provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company — $750,000 for the Premier plan.*
When booking a car in Canada, you’ll choose between three protection plans — Premier, Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of coverage that’s right for you. With each plan, you’re covered with liability insurance purchased from Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) in British Columbia and Economical Insurance Company in the other supported provinces— $2,000,000 for all plans.**
When renting a car in the United Kingdom, you’ll also choose between the Premier, Standard, and Minimum protection plans. Each plan includes different limits of financial responsibility for physical damage. Protection plans are not insurance; they are an agreement between Turo and guests about financial responsibility if there is damage to the host’s vehicle during a trip.
Distinct from protection plans, all trips come with third-party auto liability insurance from ERS (Syndicate 218 at Lloyd’s) managed by IQUW Syndicate Management Limited, arranged via Turo’s broker Lockton Companies LLP. IQUW and Lockton are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Is there a fee to add additional drivers to my trip?
There is no fee or additional charge for adding a driver to your trip on Turo. Only the guest who booked the trip (primary driver) can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to request to add authorized drivers before your trip starts, though guests in the US and Canada can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress with no extra charges.

How long does it take to charge a Tesla?
How long does it take to charge a Tesla?
Charge time for a Tesla depends on a few factors, most notably the model of Tesla, its battery capacity, and the type of charging used.
If you need to add lots of range quickly, head to a Tesla Supercharger station, Tesla-exclusive charging infrastructure that’s located in virtually all major markets and is unavailable to other battery-powered vehicles. Superchargers provide Level 3 charging (the fastest kind), which can add 200 miles of range in 15 minutes, and fill any Tesla to full capacity in under 40 minutes. If you plan your journey, mini road trip, or day trip properly, this is the way to go for a seamless experience charging your Tesla over an entire trip.
Typical charging needs can be fulfilled with the more common Level 2 charging, the type used by third-party networks (like ChargePoint and EVgo) for a price, and by any business featuring Tesla’s Destination Chargers. Level 2 charging can typically refill a Tesla overnight — figure it taking six to 12 hours. Choosing Level 2 costs less and prolongs battery life.
For the lightest needs, Teslas come with a standard cable that can plug into any common household outlet for Level 1 charging, which only adds about three miles per hour.
