What each Turo car actually earns: profit per car, cost per mile and ROI
Updated October 30, 2026, 5 minute read
Turo's earnings page tells you what came in, not what a car made after its payment, repairs and tolls. To decide which cars to keep, you need both sides per car.
Get earnings in
Forward Turo's emails from Gmail so each trip's earnings arrive as they happen. For the past, download Turo's CSV exports (Trip earnings and Transaction history) and use Import Turo CSVs.
Get costs in
Bring in your bank transactions and split them across cars, record vendor bills and maintenance, and enter the purchase, loan or lease on each car's Ownership tab.
Read the Profitability page
Pick a period and one car or a group of cars. You see income, expenses, and profit, plus utilization and cost per mile. Over the whole time you've owned a car, you see the all-in cost, sale and total return.
Check Turo's payouts against your bank
Turo vs Bank compares what Turo says it paid with what reached your account, so a missing payout stands out.
Hand it to your accountant
If you use QuickBooks Online, connect it from Finances. Your books stay up to date without retyping.
Questions
Can I use this without connecting my bank?
Yes. Earnings work from Turo's emails or CSVs, and you can add expenses to each car by hand.
