Tesla Model Y 2023

Muller did an excellent job communicating dropping off the car at our flat. While slightly delayed due to London traffic, it was not a major issue. The Tesla Y is just like my vehicle, and this vehicle performed very well. Muller keeps the car in very good condition and was clean. He has a mobile Tesla charger should you need one and also card key. Please note Tesla Supercharger requires host owner to have a supercharger account paid for renter in order charge at Tesla Charging Station. Overall very positive experience with Muller and Turo.

The car did everything you would expect from a Tesla Model 3. Relaxing motorway journeys on Autopilot and problem free charging on the supercharger network.

Tesla Model Y

The Tesla Model Y is a practical electric SUV with plenty of space and a smooth, quiet drive. Its strong range makes it suitable for both city journeys and longer trips across the UK. Select versions feature dual-motor all-wheel drive, and with access to Tesla’s Supercharger network, the Model Y offers a confident and convenient driving experience.

Tesla Model 3

The all-glass roof of the Model 3 in the Tesla lineup offers a touch of that trademark cool — but this stylish sedan with a minimalist interior isn't just another pretty face. Its compact size makes it the ideal Tesla hire car for driving in the city, and the standard range battery is truly impressive.

Tesla Model X

It's on of the most futuristic SUVs on the market. As well as those iconic doors, the Model X can boast an acceleration speed of 0 to 60 mph in as little as 2.5 seconds on specific high-performance versions, and offers all-wheel drive across its dual-motor or tri-motor variants.

For the lowest prices, use the “budget-friendly” filter to browse economy options.

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.

* 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 that is included in protection plans, 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.
