Car-rental startup Turo Inc. is cutting about 150 jobs after withdrawing plans for an initial public offering.

“Due to ongoing economic uncertainty and in order to strengthen our position for long-term growth, Turo has made the very difficult decision to reduce the size of our team by approximately 15%,” a spokesperson said in a statement to Bloomberg.
