WANT TO ROADTRIP A TESLA IF YOU DON'T OWN ONE? TURO TESLA REVIEW & ROAD TRIP!

EV Channels Review

This video offers a practical review of using Turo to rent a Tesla Model 3 for a road trip, particularly for those considering a purchase. The reviewer highlights Turo's convenience for testing EVs but notes limitations like the inability to communicate with owners pre-booking and the 'Super Deluxe' age/deposit requirements for performance models. The specific rental, a 2020 Model 3 Long Range with FSD from owner Danny in Alabama, is praised for its unlimited mileage, pet-friendliness, and included Supercharging, though finding such an option required extensive searching outside the immediate rental area. The road trip experience itself, conducted during a busy Thanksgiving weekend, showcased the effectiveness of Tesla's Autopilot and Navigate on Autopilot in heavy traffic, though congestion did add about 1.5 hours to the typical 8-hour journey. Supercharger experiences varied, with some being crowded and others less so. Overall, the reviewer found the Turo rental and the road trip in the Model 3 to be a positive and feasible way to experience Tesla ownership without immediate commitment.
