I’m not sure where to start, from pickup to return the process was great and so easy. I had no troubles with the vehicle at all during my 4 day trip. Car was also in good condition at pickup. Very easy to manage. The host also gave us access to the Tesla app which made our trip 100x easier to manage. If I have the opportunity to book with Tommy again I would for sure be doing it. Highly Recommend

Tesla Model 3 2023

The Model 3 was very clean and drove perfectly. Naader gave us full access through the Tesla app, which was very convenient and part of the reason I like to rent Teslas on Turo. Nadeer was a great host who was very responsive and thorough. He made sure I had everything I needed. Pickup and drop-off near the airport were very convenient. My only complaint about this rental was the requirement to recharge to 100% upon return. EVs charge much slower after 80% (and incredibly slow after 95%), and requiring it to be returned at 100% also gives you zero wiggle room in where you do your final charge. There is one supercharger near the pickup/dropoff location, so you are forced to use that supercharger. We had a late drop-off because we had a very early flight out the next morning, and it took us more than 45 minutes to charge from about 50% to 100% (it only took about 15 minutes to get to 80%, and then we spent nearly half an hour waiting to add the last 20%). It would make a lot more sense to give the car to renters at 80% and ask them to return it at 80% as well, which is how every other EV I've rented has worked (for good reason).

Tesla was great! The Pick up location was a $20 uber from the airport. Parked in the lot across from the Hilton hotel. Car was in great condition and super clean! Highly recommend! Wade was very responsive to all my questions. Ps. The best charging place is at the Jack in The Box in Barrio Logan. (2890 National Ave, San Diego, CA 92113 ) Most of the other super chargers are located inside paid parking garages.

I couldn’t recommend this host enough. I’ve never driven a Tesla and they took the time to teach me all of the safety features and I felt so safe in this car the entire week that I had it and now I definitely will be buying a Tesla soon. Haha
