This was the first time I used Turo and I loved the simplicity of paying for the rental, the best low cost, clean, well-maintained and easily found the vehicle by using the Turo app along with being able to text the owner if needed. I was able to pick the type of vehicle near me to rent. The vehicle was simple, hassle free to pick up and return. I met the host and they were professional, friendly and I will only use Turo when renting again. Love this concept and the price!

Just wrapped up an amazing experience renting this Range Rover and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. The vehicle was absolutely spotless, drove like a dream, and turned heads everywhere we went. Smooth ride, luxury feel, and incredibly comfortable whether cruising around town or taking longer trips. The entire rental process was easy, professional, and stress-free from start to finish. You can tell the owner really takes pride in keeping the vehicle in top condition. Without question, I’ll definitely be renting this Range Rover again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a luxury SUV experience done the right way at a affordable price.

Abe was an absolutely great host. As a first time traveler who made some reservation stumbles, he worked with me to accommodate any changes with me, with a friendly attitude. I would gladly rent from them again. Love that things felt personal versus at typical rental companies.

Tesla Model Y 2023

This was easily one of the best rental experiences I have ever had. The red Tesla Model Y with the beautiful white interior was absolutely stunning, spotless, fresh, comfortable, and a joy to drive. The car felt premium in every way, and having Full Self-Driving included at no extra cost made the experience even more special. For the price, this is an incredible value and honestly much better than my usual Avis, Enterprise, or other traditional rental bookings. Jay and Kam were outstanding hosts. They delivered the car before the scheduled time, made the pickup and return completely smooth, and took the time to explain everything about the car in detail. They are true Tesla enthusiasts and former Tesla employees, and their knowledge really shows. As first-time users of Tesla’s self-driving features, their guidance made us feel comfortable, confident, and able to enjoy the car to the fullest. One thing that really stood out was the thoughtful refreshments they provided for us. That small gesture made a big difference and immediately showed how much they care about their guests. I have never experienced that level of hospitality with any other rental before. It felt less like a regular car rental and more like a carefully prepared premium experience. Communication was excellent throughout the trip. They were friendly, responsive, and available anytime we had a question. The entire experience was stress-free from start to finish, and the car was perfect for enjoying Seattle and the surrounding areas. Amazing car, great price, and truly super helpful hosts. I would definitely rent from them again in the future and highly recommend this Tesla to anyone looking for the best Turo experience in Seattle. 5/5!

We come to Oahu quite a bit, and this rental worked out perfectly for our family. We were moving our daughter out of her dorm for the summer, so having a comfortable SUV with plenty of storage space in the back made a huge difference. It handled luggage, boxes, and beach gear easily without everyone feeling cramped. The vehicle itself was clean, well-maintained, comfortable, and very easy to drive around the island. Whether we were running errands in town or spending the day exploring different parts of Oahu, it was reliable and enjoyable the entire trip. Compared to the major rental companies where even tiny cars can cost a fortune in Hawaii, this was a much better value. We’ve also used Hui before, but if you’re out exploring for more than a couple hours, the cost adds up fast. Having this vehicle available the whole trip gave us way more flexibility and convenience without the stress. Would absolutely rent again next time we’re on the island. Highly recommend!

Hiba was amazing. This was my first experience with Turo where I had the chance to meet the owner, She was punctual and pleasant. The vehicle was beautiful, but upon check-in I realize there was an issue with the tire. I notified her about it and less than an hour she communicated back to try to resolve the issue. Unfortunately, it couldn’t be resolved on the day of my rental so I had to return it for her to get the tire completely replaced. She did exactly what she said she would do. She communicated with me and also Turo to get an adjustment to the price and change my reservation dates . This vehicle was impressive and in great condition. It was a perfect drive for my weekend getaway. 10 out of 10-recommend this reservation/owner.

Porsche Macan 2018

Nick was an amazing host from start to finish. The Porsche Macan was absolutely EPIC — powerful, sleek, clean, smooth, and every bit of the luxury experience I was hoping for. I originally rented it for work, but I enjoyed it so much that I extended the trip for pleasure, and my family loved every second of it too. Nick’s customer service was top-tier. He was accommodating with my last-minute changes, easy to communicate with, and made the entire rental process feel effortless. The vehicle definitely turns heads, but the overall experience with Nick is what really made it stand out. I’d absolutely rent from him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a luxury ride with a professional, reliable host.

First time using Turo and the experience was perfect! Great car, very clean. Couldn't beat the price especially with it being a newer model car and also my previous reservation canceled on me in less than 24hrs. Blessed to have experienced this opportunity. Will rent again in the future if need be. Juan was very professional, welcoming and informative. 10/10.

Prices were decent, especially for the size and year of the vehicle. Pick up and drop off were pretty simple and straightforward. Personally not the type of car I would go for, but due to my last sketchy host canceling on me hours before my trip because I covered my address in the license confirmation picture (which Turo allows you to do) that car was the greatest savior I have ever had! The host was awesome! He vacuumed and hosed the car down on the spot for me even though he was really busy. He even listened to me ranting about my trip lol and I appreciate that type of service. I'll definitely utilize them again if I ever get the chance.

Igor was fantastic, the car was a complete joy to drive and Igor has gone out of his was to add some nice touches, a cooler with drinks and ice when you pick up the vehicle, an umbrella, and a charging power cord. The car was well beyond clean and tidy, by far the best Turo I've ever rented. The price was reasonable and was able to extend my reservation a few times was supposed to have for 2-3 days ended up with 7-8. I would highly recommend this vehicle and this host 5 out 5 stars top notch.

Tesla Model Y 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I couldn’t be happier with my experience renting this Tesla Model Y! The vehicle was spotless, perfectly maintained, and performed flawlessly throughout our entire trip. The Full Self-Driving technology was absolutely incredible. We drove along the California coast, through busy congested city traffic, active construction zones, and crowded tourist areas, and the system handled everything with impressive confidence and smoothness. It made long drives far more relaxing and enjoyable than I ever expected. The car itself was comfortable, efficient, and a pleasure to drive. Everything worked exactly as it should, and the vehicle was delivered in excellent condition. On top of that, the host provided outstanding customer service from start to finish. Communication was prompt, professional, and helpful throughout the rental process. If you’re considering renting a Tesla Model Y with Full Self-Driving, don’t hesitate. This was one of the best rental experiences I’ve ever had, and I would gladly rent from this host again. Highly recommended!

Things to do and places to see in York

York offers stunning coastal attractions easily accessible by car, from the iconic Nubble Lighthouse to expansive sandy beaches perfect for family outings. You can explore the historic York Village with its colonial architecture, visit local farms offering seasonal produce, and drive scenic routes along the Atlantic coastline. Your rental SUV provides the flexibility to discover secluded beaches, antique shops, and waterfront restaurants at your own pace. The area features excellent parking at most attractions, making it convenient to hop between lighthouse tours, beach walks, and downtown exploration.


Nubble Lighthouse scenic coastal landmark

The Nubble Lighthouse stands as York's most photographed attraction, perched dramatically on a rocky island just offshore. You'll find ample parking at Sohier Park, where viewing areas offer perfect vantage points for capturing this classic Maine scene. The coastal drive to reach the lighthouse showcases beautiful ocean vistas and charming New England architecture. Your rental SUV handles the winding coastal roads comfortably while providing space for camera equipment and picnic supplies.


York Beach family entertainment destination

York Beach stretches for miles along the Atlantic, offering both Long Sands Beach and Short Sands Beach for different experiences. The area features classic seaside attractions, local eateries, and seasonal entertainment that capture the essence of Maine's coast. Parking areas near both beaches accommodate your rental SUV easily, though summer months see higher demand. Your vehicle becomes invaluable for transporting beach chairs, umbrellas, and supplies for a full day by the ocean.


Historic York Village colonial heritage site

York Village preserves centuries of American history through its collection of colonial buildings, museums, and guided tours. You'll explore structures dating back to the 1600s, including historic homes, a schoolhouse, and traditional New England meeting spaces. The village offers convenient parking for your rental SUV while you walk through exhibits showcasing early American life. Your rental SUV allows easy access to this inland attraction while maintaining the flexibility to return to coastal areas.


How to get to York

• By plane: Fly into Portland International Jetport, then drive south along scenic coastal routes to reach York
• By car: Take Interstate 95 north from Boston or south from Portland, with clear highway access and well-marked exits
• By train: Amtrak serves nearby Wells, with SUV rentals available for the short drive to York's attractions


Top tips for renting an SUV in York

Book your SUV rental early on Turo, especially during summer months when Maine's coast attracts peak tourism. Look for vehicles with features like all-wheel drive for year-round confidence, heated seats for cooler coastal evenings, and ample cargo space for beach equipment or shopping finds. Consider rental SUVs with backup cameras to help navigate tight parking spots near popular attractions, and keyless entry for convenience when carrying beach gear. Choose a vehicle that accommodates your group size comfortably while providing the elevated seating position perfect for enjoying Maine's scenic coastal drives.

Frequently asked questions in York

Why choose an SUV for York adventures?

Rental SUVs provide excellent ground clearance and spacious interiors perfect for exploring York's diverse terrain and carrying adventure gear. The higher seating position offers better visibility when navigating Maine's scenic routes, while ample cargo space accommodates everything from hiking equipment to family luggage. York's proximity to both coastal areas and inland forests makes an SUV rental the ideal vehicle choice for versatile exploration.

How to handle SUV driving in York?

Rental SUVs in York require awareness of the vehicle's larger dimensions when parking in downtown areas or navigating narrow coastal roads. Practice smooth acceleration and braking to maximize fuel efficiency, especially important given Maine's gas station spacing in rural areas. Familiarize yourself with the rental SUV's turning radius before venturing into York's historic district where streets can be tighter than modern developments.

Best SUV driving in Maine winters?

Maine winters demand rental SUVs equipped with all-season or winter tires for optimal traction on snow-covered roads. Keep your gas tank at least half full to prevent fuel line freezing and ensure adequate weight distribution. Rental SUVs excel in winter conditions due to their higher ground clearance and enhanced stability, making them perfect for York's winter landscape exploration.

Where to explore with SUV from York?

Your rental SUV opens access to Maine's rugged coastline, including rocky beaches and lighthouse trails that require sturdy vehicle capabilities. Venture inland to explore state parks and mountain regions where SUV ground clearance proves invaluable on unpaved access roads. York serves as an excellent base for rental SUV adventures to both New Hampshire's White Mountains and Maine's Acadia region.

Family or adventure SUV in York?

Family-oriented rental SUVs prioritize passenger comfort with multiple seating configurations and entertainment systems for longer Maine road trips. Adventure-focused rental SUV models emphasize cargo capacity and enhanced suspension systems ideal for outdoor gear transport and varied terrain navigation. Consider your York itinerary when selecting between luxury comfort features and rugged capability options in your SUV rental choice.

What SUV safety features matter?

Modern rental SUVs include electronic stability control and traction management systems crucial for Maine's diverse driving conditions. Advanced braking systems and blind spot monitoring enhance safety when navigating York's mix of rural roads and busier coastal routes. All-wheel drive capability provides additional security during unexpected weather changes common in Maine's coastal climate.

Is there unlimited mileage car rental on Turo?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you'll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. On the vehicle pages, you'll see the total miles or kilometers you're allowed to drive under the heading "Distance included." You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the "Unlimited distance" filter.

How does car rental insurance work on Turo?

No, you don't need personal insurance coverage to rent a car on Turo. In the US, any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host's vehicle would kick in before your Turo protection plan. When booking a car in the US, you'll choose between three protection plans — Premier (eligibility requirements apply), Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of protection that's right for you. On each trip, you're covered with third-party automobile liability insurance provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company.* In New York state, you'll also choose between Premier (if available), Standard, or Minimum. With each plan, you're covered with liability insurance of $1,250,000.* Protection plans for New York trips also include access to roadside assistance, priority phone support, and 24/7 customer assistance.

What documents and paperwork do I need to rent a car on Turo?

In most cases, you'll get approved immediately, and you'll be set for all future road trips, day trips, and business trips!
