COMING IN OCTOBER

Delivery fees and Extras

Starting October 8, delivery fees and Extras (like car seats and prepaid refuel) will use the same take rate as your earnings plan. Hosts on the More Earnings plan will see no change. Hosts on the More Peace of Mind and Balanced plans will see their take rate adjust to match their plan. In markets with variable take rates, the applicable rate will vary based on trip lead time.

The change applies to new trips booked on or after October 8. Existing trips and extensions aren't affected.

COMING IN NOVEMBER

Turo Delivered

We're creating more opportunities for hosts to earn with delivery.

Today, custom delivery is set up with one fixed radius and price. With Turo Delivered, you'll be able to create multiple delivery zones and set pricing based on distance, giving you more flexibility to offer delivery across your market.

For guests, that means they can find vehicles that can be delivered to where they actually want their trip to begin, whether that's a hotel, home, airport, or train station. For hosts, it creates an opportunity to reach guests beyond their existing delivery area and capture additional delivery demand.

You decide where to offer delivery and what to charge, so you can expand your reach into the areas that make sense for your business.

Featured in Skift

Skift, a leading travel industry publication, recently explored how Turo Delivered gives hosts more control over where they offer delivery while helping travelers find cars earlier in the trip-planning process.

COMING SOON

Turo on Muse: Meta’s personal AI agent

We’re partnering with Meta to bring Turo to Muse, Meta’s new personal AI agent. Soon, guests will be able to ask Muse to find a car for their trip, discover Turo vehicles that fit what they’re looking for, and book directly through Muse.

This gives guests another way to discover Turo when they’re planning a trip, creating more opportunities for you to reach potential guests.

COMING LATER THIS YEAR

Direct Repair Program

When a vehicle is damaged, getting it repaired can be a frustrating and costly part of hosting. The Direct Repair Program (DRP) connects hosts who file a damage claim with participating repair shops in Turo’s trusted network.

With DRP, you can find a participating shop to handle eligible repairs, and once you’ve met your out-of-pocket responsibility, Turo pays the shop directly, so you don’t have to pay upfront and wait to be reimbursed. Participating shops prioritize Turo hosts for estimates and repairs, helping you get your vehicle back on the road faster with less back-and-forth on estimates and repair costs.

COMING LATER THIS YEAR

Turo Camera

Taking check-in and check-out photos is one of the most important ways to protect yourself as a host, but it can also be one of the most time-consuming parts of every trip. We're rebuilding the Turo Camera from the ground up to make documenting every trip faster, easier, and more reliable.

The upgraded camera will be easily accessible from an app shortcut, widgets, and the Trips tab, so you can get to it in one or two taps. Photos will include verified trip-level data, including the time, location, and trip they're tied to, making it easier to support a damage claim if one occurs.

We're also building offline capture, so photos can save reliably even when you're in areas with poor service.

COMING LATER THIS YEAR

Automated license confirmation at check-in

Today, hosts have to manually check a guest's license at check-in, including their name, date of birth, and expiration date.

Later this year, guests will be able to scan their license and complete a selfie at check-in. The images and information will be compared and confirmed automatically. This will reduce what hosts need to check themselves at handoff while adding another layer of confirmation of the guest’s driver’s license and information.
