Turo Host Profit Formula

Turo pays hosts a percentage of the trip price based on the protection plan they choose — generally 60%, 75%, or 90% of the trip price, with Turo retaining the rest to cover insurance and platform costs. A host's net profit is what remains of their Turo earnings after subtracting fixed monthly costs (vehicle payment, insurance, depreciation) and variable costs (cleaning between trips).

Gross Monthly Revenue = Average Daily Price × Trip Days per Month
Turo Earnings = Gross Monthly Revenue × Host Share %
Total Cleaning Cost = Cleaning Cost per Trip × Trips per Month
Total Monthly Expenses = Vehicle Payment + Insurance + Depreciation + Total Cleaning Cost
Net Monthly Profit = Turo Earnings − Total Monthly Expenses
Annual Net Profit = Net Monthly Profit × 12
Profit Margin % = (Net Monthly Profit ÷ Turo Earnings) × 100

Turo's host earning percentage depends on the protection plan selected: the 60% plan offers the most insurance coverage from Turo, the 75% plan offers moderate coverage, and the 90% plan requires the host to carry their own commercial insurance. Depreciation is an estimate of the vehicle's value loss attributable to Turo usage and should reflect your own research for your specific vehicle.
