If you’re running a car rental business on Turo and planning to scale into 2026, this video is all you need to do so.

After operating as a Turo host and building real systems behind the scenes, I’m making major changes going into 2026, not because things failed, but because the game is changing.

In this video, I break down:

What I’m stopping as a Turo host

What I’m doubling down on to scale smarter

The systems I’m putting in place for automation and margin protection

Why certain “popular” Turo strategies won’t work long-term

How I’m preparing for platform shifts, increased competition, and tighter margins

This isn’t theory. It’s what I’m actually changing in my own car rental business.

If you’re:

A Turo host trying to grow past 1–5 cars

Building a fleet but feeling capped by time

Tired of reactive hosting and constant tasks

Thinking about scaling in 2026 and beyond

This video will give you clarity on what matters next.

I’m sharing the mindset shift, operational changes, and business decisions I’m making now so you don’t have to learn the hard way.

  1. Audio is still terrible and your lighting is horrible. Way too washed out. Hire an editor and have someone come in and teach you lighting and your guys videos could do so much better. You guys give great information but the delivery is lacking. Message me if you’d like some tips. Not charging, just trying to help

  2. You can bring up to the individual depreciation w/ their $25k – $30k cars. Also, ignore the Turo Carculator's "annual loan cost" and "average Earnings" section. It doesn't doesn't take into account the year and it doesn't know how much people actually pay per month. Hence, why the Fiat 500 was the golden car.

  3. For airport rentals the last two months, Turo recently started adding a $30 surcharge (per day) on top of the listed price for newer vehicles—like 2022 models and up. My older 2016 model (same car type, same base price) ended up renting much more frequently than the newer ones because the platform quietly inflated the price on their end, making the newer cars noticeably more expensive for guests.
    Even though my car has a perfect 5-star rating and over 50 completed trips, bookings dropped off noticeably during that period. Things seem to have returned to normal now—the extra fee appears to be gone (or no longer applied the same way), and rentals are picking back up. I had my 2022 listed for less than my 2016. 2016 made $1100 with 90% utilization. They know they can't mark up the older cars up so there easier to rent even though the first 4 months the newer 2022 had 80 to 90% Util.

  4. Peter – turo is moving towards long term car rentals, so how it's gonna make sense to give car maintenance properly if it's out of the lot for saying 2-3 months?
