A stranger gave russ1mitchell his $45,000 Tesla Model 3 to drive around for two days. They met through a car-rental app called Turo. Auto reporter Russ Mitchell explains:
Porsche’s eighth-generation 911 is stylistically familiar, but performance is impressively new.
The companies launched their services a decade ago, placing a bet that “peak car” had been reached and new mobility services were necessary to make up for a decline in the auto business. But automobile sales reached record highs over that time, and the services turned out to be money losers. One advantage Turo and Getaround have is that, while automakers limited app-rental choices to their own models, the upstarts can offer any make or model that owners want to post.
It’s impossible to know how many Turo owners are using the service that way. My Tesla owner, Dang, said, “I’m not doing this to pay off the Model 3.”Advertisement
