Kia K5 2021

The host, the car, and the whole Turo experience was 10/10. The price was fantastic and the whole experience was seamless. We had weird hours we wanted to leave and return the car that would not have worked with a car rental agency, but Angel and Turo made the whole process easy and seamless. I’m a bigger guy so I was worried about how comfortable the car would be and it was perfect. The great ride made our whole vacation possible and comfortable. I really appreciated the vehicles safety features too!

I had an amazing time with this car and host. So much so, when I turned it in a day early, I told the host to keep the change. Didn’t even ask for an adjustment because I was so satisfied with the service and how easy the process was. I’m never going to rent a car from those regular car rental companies anymore, Toro is it for me. Such a better experience and process.

One of the smoothest car rental experiences I’ve ever had. The car was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. The pickup and return process was quick and hassle-free, and the communication throughout was excellent. Very professional, reliable, and worth every penny. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a stress-free rental experience! I’ll rent again!

This was my first time ever renting through Turo and it was the best experience! Jordan provided excellent pick-up and drop-off instructions and the Kia Forte was a great, reliable car! Thank you for helping make our week in Denver a breeze. Will definitely rent from Jordan again if in Denver again!!

We had a great experience with this Turo rental. The service was excellent, and the host responded quickly whenever we needed anything. Thank you so much for making our trip smooth and enjoyable. We had a flat tire during the rental period, but they gave us another car in no time and took care of the tire issue right away. Because of their quick support, we never felt inconvenienced by the flat tire during our trip. This was the best value for the price, and we would definitely rent again!

Great experience! The car is easy to drive, runs great and was really clean. Pick up and drop off were really easy - Sometimes street parking for Turo rentals makes me nervous, but there were lots of spots available when I dropped the car off, it was no trouble at all. Would happily rent again!

Kia Optima Hybrid 2018

Perfect car! Comfortable, clean, and superior gas mileage! It was relatively easy and simple to pickup the car after landing at the SeaTac airport. All I had to do was take the Link Rail from the airport to the car's location. Clear directions, she even sent us a pic of where it was parked! Everything went smoothly. :) ~~~ Here are some highlights from my personal experience with the Kia Optima Hybrid: Pros: - Looks exactly like pictures, super super clean outside AND inside! Probably the cleanest Turo I've ever rented and that's saying a lot because it's a white car and probably hard to keep this clean! - Clear directions of the whole plan to get the car. Sent a photo of where it was parked closer to the time of arrival, so it was easy to find. - Compared to other cars, actually good legroom in the backseat! Which is partially why I got it, so my sisters could continue getting dressed on the way to our event if needed. - Sunroof was cool! No explanation needed! :) - Crazy good gas mileage because it's a hybrid! We drove to Ashford, WA and back for my best friend's Wedding (~160mi total) and it only used 1/4th of the tank and it only costed $27 to refill it! :D Cons: - A/C wasn't cold. Don't know if it's user error because I'm not used to driving a hybrid/modern car or what, but we tried everything we could and couldn't get it to blow cold air. It blew some air, but it was mostly warm. Luckily it wasn't too hot but there were a few times where I had to take off my shirt on the drive back because I was so hot. So not recommended for a hot summer day where you really need the A/C, but otherwise a really great car! Potentially the car just needs to be touched up with a bit of refrigerant/coolant! :) This should be an easy fix but just mentioning because it wasn't cold for my specific trip. - Scary getting the key from the lockbox in the back of the trunk. This is mostly my own personal gripe, because I startle at loud sounds. Getting the key from the trunk at the start of the trip, sucked for me because as I opened the trunk it started beeping really loudly as if I was stealing the car. I wish I had at least known to expect that. Getting the key would have been fine and easy, if I could have found the lockbox earlier. Unfortunately for me, the lockbox was black in a black trunk, so it took me a bit to find it, and so it continued to beep for a long time while I found where it was. But the process was pretty simple once I knew where the lockbox was, so maybe it's just user error again on my part. [I actually just rechecked the message with instructions for the lockbox, and it actually does say it's on the trunk lid, so I guess I just missed that word when looking at it. I think I got stressed when the car alarm went off and it made it harder for me to focus and read the instructions more clearly. Anyways that part is my bad. I still wish I had known it was going to beep in advance until I got the keys though!] - Car was a bit...slippery? Not a big deal, but my sisters told me that the car was very slippery and almost fell a couple times getting out of it. I also felt the same but thought I was imagining it or making a bigger deal than it actually was, until they mentioned it too. Just something to note about the car. :) ~~~ Overall, I loved our rental and would absolutely rent it again in the future if ever possible. Thank you so much Larisa for making our trip to Victoria's Wedding spectacular!!! :D

I had a great experience renting from Pat. The 2021 Kia Rio was clean, reliable, and exactly as described. It was perfect for getting around without any issues. The car was fuel efficient and easy to drive, which made the whole trip smooth and stress free. I loved the self checkin and checkout. Pat was responsive and professional. Communication was clear, and everything went exactly as planned. I’d definitely rent from Pat again and highly recommend both the host and the car to anyone looking for a hassle free rental for a very reasonable price.

Peter’s Kia was a fantastic ride! With gas prices climbing, it was so nice to drive a car that gets great gas mileage. The check-in process was a breeze and Peter is very communicative. All around a great trip and I would rent from him again!

Car was fantastic! Drive VERY smooth, quiet, no hick-ups whatsoever in my trip. Had great A/c, heat, and breaks (during heavy rains). Host was on top of instructions and such for the vehicle. Gave them well in advanced. And was always a message away with a quick response. Was great accommodating my last minute pick-up time switch. Would definitely rent again!
