The (huge) savings renting via Drive mate over Turo

Here’s an interesting case study about host earnings and customer satisfactionon Drive mate vs Turo – most relevant for high value cars, but for lower value, maybe consider the percentages not the $$$

PDS – I’m a marcomms consultant to Drive mate.

Images below show guest quotes for same trip in the same car on the same dates at roughly same day rate - $405 Drive mate / $389.25 Turo ($519 - 25% 3-day discount).

Turo Trip Fees and Sales Tax over my daily rate were $619.40* – 39.8% of my 3-day rate, or an (eye-watering) 53.0% of my discounted 3-day rate, so natch I switched my guest to Drive mate for $12 daily fees, $36 in total.

Drive mate earnings vs Turo? Plus 100% as he was walking away.

Customer satisfaction went from zero to 1000% - he’s thrilled and will be back regularly.

* plus a $50 young driver fee, reasonable for a powerful car.
