Want to Rent a Porsche? Book From Turo’s Car Marketplace With Hopper
Mobile-travel booking platform Hopper is partnering with Turo to give its users access to the car-sharing platform’s extensive listings.

Choose a vehicle category and model close to the one you’d like—say, “BMW X3 or similar luxury SUV”—and then cross your fingers that you’ll actually find a closely matching vehicle once you’re at your destination so you can continue your journey without a hassle.
That daunting prospect is set to shift for users of Hopper, a travel-booking app. Starting on Thursday, Sept. 21, Hopper will integrate car listings from Turo, the car-sharing marketplace in which individual hosts rent their cars to users.
