You won't have much choice at most car rental companies, but Turo gives you almost endless options. You can find all kinds of cars, pickup trucks, SUVs, and minivans on Turo, and there's also a wide range of hybrid and fully electric vehicles. Here are a few of the most popular choices:

- Luxury SUVs: Roomy interiors packed with luxury features and smooth and powerful engines make premium SUVs like the Cadillac Escalade and Jeep Grand Wagoneer extremely popular rental vehicles.

- Pickup trucks: People with lots of gear to haul often choose to rent full-size pickup trucks like the GMC Sierra and Ford F-150. If you could get by with a smaller bed, rent a mid-size pickup truck like the Toyota Tacoma.

- Luxury sedans: A premium sedan like a Mercedes-Benz S Class or BMW 7 Series will cosset you and your passengers and turn heads wherever you go. You could also choose a mid-size luxury sedan like a Lexus ES or Audi A6.
