Revenue

Sacra estimates Turo hit $958M in revenue in 2024, representing approximately 9% year-over-year growth from $880M in 2023. This marks a significant deceleration from previous years, where Turo saw 213% growth to $469M in 2021 and 59% growth to $747M in 2022.
The company generates revenue by taking a commission from vehicle rentals facilitated through its peer-to-peer marketplace, which connects over 160,000 active hosts with 2.9 million active guests across five countries. Turo's platform lists approximately 320,000 vehicles spanning 1,600 makes and models.
Turo's business experienced significant growth during the COVID-19 pandemic, with revenue increasing 213% in 2021 to $469 million. This surge was driven by several factors, including supply constraints at traditional rental companies like Enterprise, Avis and Hertz, who sold off large portions of their fleets to capitalize on high used car prices during the pandemic.
The resulting shortage of rental vehicles, combined with pent-up travel demand as restrictions eased, created ideal market conditions for Turo's peer-to-peer model.
Turo's 2023 and 2024 deceleration reflects a more stable competitive environment as traditional rental companies have rebuilt their fleets and pricing has become less volatile.

Product

Car sharing pioneer Zipcar (2000, acquired by Avis for $500M in 2013) found product-market fit with hourly car rentals conveniently parked in urban neighborhoods, which—combined with Airbnb’s (2008) breakout success as an asset light, peer-to-peer marketplace—inspired the 2009 founding of Turo and Getaround (went public via SPAC, delisted in 2024) as peer-to-peer, contactless, hourly car rental that you could easily book & unlock with your phone.
In 2012, Turo lowered the barriers to signing up and generating revenue with your car by removing the requirement to install hardware in your car, building out owner and renter identity & reputation and switching to daily rentals to create the right unit of demand for the marketplace.
