Electric car hire Australia
Forget about petrol prices and step into the automotive experience of the future on Turo. Designed with smart technology and impressive safety features, EVs are more splashy and fun to drive than ever — you’ll get a lot more than power windows and air conditioning and the actual range of an EV can take you farther than you might expect.
There is an electric car for every kind of amazing trip and driving experience, from an SUV for your trip to the snowy mountains to a zippy sports car for hugging the windiest road on the South Coast — there are even features for navigating traffic conditions to your favourite destinations in Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney or wherever you are headed in Australia. Driving is evolving, so get in and see what’s new.
The living’s EV
Cruise worry-free in a vehicle with low or no carbon emissions, and packed with cutting-edge technologies that make driving super fun and charging easy.
Innovative technology
Frills and thrills are the name of the EV game, whether you’re driving a Tesla Model Y, a Nissan LEAF or a Hyundai IONIQ. With safety features galore, the constant evolution of new driving modes and assistants, short charge times and batteries that keep range anxiety at bay, prepare to enter the future of driving.
Zero tailpipe emissions
Do the earth a solid by skipping the petrol station and driving battery-electric vehicles, or even a hybrid vehicle. With greatly expanded charging station infrastructure throughout cities and roads across Australia, you can still get the amazing experience of an Australian road trip, just greener.
Try before you buy
If you’re in the market for a new electric vehicle, take an extended test drive on Turo in a nearby location to get the full EV experience, so you can make an informed decision on which electric vehicle is right for you.

Tesla Model Y
The Tesla Model Y offers the spaciousness of an SUV with top-of-the-line Tesla technology and driving experience. Plus you can’t beat the convenience of a short charge time and low charging cost at a Tesla Supercharger.
Porsche Taycan
Luxury driving inside and out. The precise steering, ample power, and explosive acceleration of the Porsche Taycan won’t let you forget that you’re not just driving an EV, but a Porsche.
Nissan LEAF
Easy to handle, great driving range, and one of the most affordable EVs, the Nissan LEAF is a crowd-pleaser. There’s likely one in Australian neighbourhood locations near you, ready to make your next errand or day trip even more efficient with this compact car driven by an electric motor.
Recent reviews
An absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish, I love the car so much to the point where i want a tesla myself.
The car is kept in a Woolworths parking lot but uber trips from the airport and back after finishing the car hire are provided for convenience.
The car is in excellent condition, impeccably clean, and well-maintained.
Great car, great host, all round a great experience that made our trip to Sydney special!
