Absolutely incredible experience! I drove Alfonso’s Mustang Convertible for over 3,000 miles on a West Coast road trip, and the car was absolutely immaculate and flawless throughout the entire trip. The Mustang was the perfect car for the West Coast, driving with the top down made the trip truly unforgettable. And Alfonso was simply amazing: incredibly kind, responsive, helpful, and genuinely a wonderful person. If you’re planning a West Coast trip, this is the car and Alfonso is the owner you want to rent from. I would absolutely rent from him again!

Car was amazing. Water provided and a smooth drive. CarPlay let’s you connect easily so you can navigate safely. Gas is amazing on this hybrid! Exceptionally clean and you can tell no one has smoked in the vehicle before. Hosts communicated and accommodated me very well. Was not waiting on them at any point in the trip to respond. Responses were clear and concise. Will definitely use them again!

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.
