Jimmy and the vehicle were wonderful. The car was very well maintained and Jimmy was a superb host. He was always very responsive and went above and beyond to make sure our trip/rental was a great one. Thank you Jimmy! We will definitely re-rent again if we need to and truly thank you for being an amazing host.

Excellent experience! The car was super clean, had very low mileage, and drove like new. The host was very professional, responsive, and made the entire rental process smooth and easy. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great Turo experience.

For my first time driving a Prius, I had a wonderful stressless experience. Gas on this car was wonderful. Drove smoothly. Host was accessible and directions for pick up and drop off were clear and easy. The car did have foot prints on the floor mat and needed vacuuming upon pick up, but that really was not a big deal to me, because I took my pictures upon pick up to show. I still got it washed & vacuumed at the VP gas station 3-4 min up the street because I had no issues & was in it & had a smooth trip. Plus the car wash was only $5 & free vacuum. Recommended by the Host 🙏🏾. Thank you again. Definitely would recommend.

Top tips for driving in Upland

A few local basics make getting around Upland and the Inland Empire easy.

Road rules

Stick to posted speed limits, which shift between city streets and mountain roads, and watch for pedestrians and cyclists in downtown and residential areas. On winding routes like Mount Baldy Road, take it slow and pull over safely to enjoy the views.

Parking

Downtown Upland offers free public lots and street parking near Memorial Park and the Metrolink station — check posted signs for time limits. Colonies Crossroads and other shopping areas have ample lots for longer stops.

Toll roads

Upland itself has no toll roads, and most Inland Empire trips run on toll-free freeways like the 10 and 210. If you venture toward Orange County, a few express lanes use electronic tolling, so plan your route ahead.

Gas and EV charging

Gas stations are plentiful along Foothill Boulevard, Mountain Avenue, and the freeway exits. Driving electric? An electric vehicle rental in Upland pairs well with the growing network of chargers around town and nearby shopping centers.

Do you need a car in Upland?

While Metrolink connects Upland to the region, a car gives you the freedom to reach the foothills, spread-out shopping, and neighboring cities on your own schedule — trips that are tough to time around transit.

How much does it cost to rent a car in Upland?

Prices vary by car type, trip length, and how far ahead you book, so it pays to compare options and reserve early for the best selection. Weekly and monthly discounts can lower the daily rate on longer trips, and every fee is shown clearly in the Turo app before you book.

Turo car rental vs. traditional rental in Upland

With Turo, the car you book is the car you get — no "or similar" bait-and-switch, no long counter lines, and no shuttle buses to off-site lots. You can pick from a diverse selection, from everyday sedans to electric and luxury cars, arrange delivery to the airport or your hotel, and unlock everything from the app. Traditional rentals hand you a generic fleet car, rigid hours, and upsells at the desk.
