Excellent experience from start to finish. The Tesla Model X was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. Pickup and return were simple, and the host was responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the trip. The vehicle drove great and made the trip very enjoyable. I especially appreciated how smooth the entire rental process was. I would definitely rent from this host again and highly recommend them to anyone considering this vehicle.

Amazing experience from start to finish! The Corvette was absolutely beautiful—clean, well-maintained, and drove perfectly. It was exactly as described and turned heads everywhere I went. The hosts were outstanding: friendly, responsive, and made pickup and drop-off quick and easy. Their communication was excellent, and they made the entire rental process stress-free. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional Turo experience!

Nice car, very clean, super fast, fantastic, easy to pick up, I wanna rent that 2025 corvette for the next trip ! Thank you guys !

The owner and this vehicle were fantastic. We drove it to Florida and back, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. The truck was spotless, modern, comfortable, and drove incredibly smoothly. We felt safe and confident throughout the entire trip. The owner was punctual, responsive, and made the rental process effortless from start to finish. I highly recommend renting this vehicle and can’t wait to take it on another road trip soon!
The pick-up was smooth. If someone is new to Tesla more instructions should be given out. I rented two Teslas on Turo and the experience was a bit different. If someone is just trying a Tesla for the first time- it’s not as easy as renting a regular car, so for all Tesla renters, there should be more instruction provided to the renters. I needed to download the Tesla App to be able to use my phone to open the car and use the vehicle. Because I was out of my own area and needed to get my password, I was told by Apple that I had to wait 1 hour to get my password, for security purposes. Good thing I had my lap top with me and was able to get my Apple password without the wait. Coming out of the parking lot it was supposed to be pre paid. It wasn’t and I was quickly refunded by Turo. I just paid to get out. Not a big issue. I also needed to return the car earlier and the host was accommodating to the change in plans. Overall the car was in great shape, life happens but I was able to adjust and make the experience a good one.

Vehicle is fast smooth n fun however Charging is a pain and doesn’t work with Tesla chargers, pickup at the Ecopark is extremely slow and frustrating.

Dennis is an amazing host! The vehicle was great and extremely comfortable. The rental process was flawless.

Amazing host and an amazing car! The 2026 Tesla Model Y was clean, drove perfectly, and made my Dream Con trip around Houston so much more enjoyable. Pickup and the overall experience were smooth, and the host was professional throughout the trip. I'd absolutely rent from them again the next time I'm in Houston. Highly recommend!

Khaled was an outstanding host! He was professional, responsive, and quick to address any questions or concerns I had throughout the trip. Communication was excellent from start to finish. The vehicle was clean, spacious, and comfortably accommodated our group of 10 , making it perfect for our family trip. Pickup and return were simple and hassle-free, and the pricing was very competitive. I had a great experience and would definitely rent from Khaled again in the future. Highly recommended!

There was a slight delay in picking up the vehicle. PJ and the team were responsive and communicated with me to keep me updated. Vehicle had enough charge for our rental period. Overall it is a fantastic EV and I would gladly rent again. Thanks for your help Chemereya and PJ

Great car! Easy to work with Hazel and her crew. Very attentative and a pleasure to rent from them. Found my new go to whenever I am in Houston!
Great vehicle, no issues on our trip! Easy pick up and drop off instructions.

Anthony was one of the best hosts to date. Very communicative from beginning to the end. The car was outstanding in every way. Very clean and description was what was provided. This host really cares and I will rent from them again.

Loved this car! It was super clean, drove great, and was a lot of fun the whole trip. Honestly, I enjoyed it so much that it had me looking at buying one for myself. I’d definitely rent it again without thinking twice. Highly recommend!

HRC is undoubtedly one of the best hosts in the city. From the moment you arrive, you’re treated to top-notch service. The communication is impeccable, and the extra amenities they offer set a high standard that many other hosts can’t match. The X6 is immaculate, with a stunning look, feel, and drive. Rest assured, HRC is the best, so don’t miss out on this incredible experience.
