How Turo Extra Miles Work (200/Day + Fee Formula)

Turo’s page about setting distance limits says a distance limit restricts how many miles or kilometres a guest may drive per day or month. It does not let you restrict where they drive. Turo has separate rules for that.

Miles included is the trip total: daily distance × trip days, unless a weekly or monthly limit applies, or you included unlimited mileage. Turo’s guest distance page says there is no set number of miles in every trip, and Turo does not give guests a search filter for unlimited mileage.

Additional distance (extra miles) is what the guest may be invoiced for every mile over that trip total. You do not pick $0.45 or $1.00. Turo calculates the rate at booking. Raising the daily rate raises the extra-mile fee. Raising the miles included lowers it.

Turo’s distance-limits page, and Turo’s page about charging for additional distance: Turo calculates cost per mile when the trip is booked by dividing your daily price by your daily distance. You receive a percentage of that fee according to your earnings-plan host share. Trip discounts change the math.

Turo’s published example: 3-day trip, $100 a day, 200 miles a day included. Total trip price $300. Total included distance 600 miles. Additional distance fee = $300 ÷ 600 = $0.50 per extra mile.

Same formula with an example so you can change it — $60 a day, US Standard floor of 200 miles, no discount: $60 ÷ 200 = $0.30 per extra mile. That $60 is an example so you can change it, not Turo’s recommended rate for your car. How the daily rate itself is set is on How to price your Turo car.

Turo: hosts must set weekly and monthly duration discounts at or above Turo’s minimum rates to unlock lower weekly and monthly distance limits. Otherwise Turo calculates those limits from your daily distance. You can bulk-apply distance settings and discounts across vehicles.

On the Help page:

• Weekly, below 15% discount: daily distance × 7. At or above 15%: US/UK minimum 1,050 miles a week (150 miles a day). Standard, Deluxe, and Super Deluxe share that weekly floor. Turo says weekly limits are based on location and discounts, not vehicle value.
• Monthly, US Standard: minimum 3,300 miles a month (110 miles a day) once you are at or above the monthly discount Turo publishes for the unlock — 45% on that page.
• Monthly, US Deluxe and Super Deluxe: minimum 1,800 miles a month (60 miles a day) at that same unlock.

Those 15% and 45% figures can change. Do not copy them from a 2021 blog. Change weekly and monthly distance and discount with the sliders on Turo’s Weekly trips and Monthly trips pages. If this page and the slider disagree, believe the slider. Duration-discount floors and the 10% non-refundable option are on Turo weekly and monthly discounts.

A longer trip that puts a lot of miles on the car is still a booked-days question. Occupancy math is on How many days will my Turo car book. Host share vs profit is on the homepage calculator ($60/day, 50% occupancy, $500 fixed, $25/trip, 80% Balanced).

Turo’s guest distance page: if the guest exceeds the trip’s distance limit, the host has 72 hours after the trip ends to send a reimbursement invoice. Turo multiplies extra miles by the additional-distance fee for that trip. The guest pays with Accept and pay. That 72-hour line can change — confirm the live Help page.

Turo’s host charging page: open the trip Details page → Create or view invoices → Create invoice → Additional distance. Turo auto-fills extra miles from photo evidence. If that number is wrong, enter the correct miles and attach pre- and post-trip odometer photos that contain metadata showing date, time, and geolocation. Then add to invoice and send.

Guests are prompted to photograph the odometer at check-in and check-out. That is the record so nobody is invoiced for miles that were already on the car. Check trip Details for an Unlimited mileage Extra before you tap send — Turo will not treat that invoice as extra miles.

Turo’s distance-limits page: if a shortened trip is approved, included distance follows the new length — daily limit if under 7 days, weekly if 7–30, monthly if still over 30 and you set a monthly limit.

If an extension is approved on a trip that did not have unlimited mileage, the extra days get their own distance from the length of the extension only (daily / weekly / monthly the same way). The original days keep their original limit.

If the original trip had unlimited mileage, an extension can activate weekly or monthly limits. In that case Turo recalculates using original days plus the extension, and counts the original period at a location rate Turo publishes — 300 miles a day in the US and UK on Turo’s distance-limits page. That is not your listing’s daily floor. It is Turo’s extension math for a trip that started unlimited. Confirm the checkout screen after any change.

You do not type your own extra-mile rate. The formula is daily price ÷ daily distance, at booking, with discounts applied. Anyone selling a fixed “Turo extra mile fee is $X” as a platform-wide price is ignoring that formula.

Extra miles are not a business plan. At this site’s defaults, 150 extra miles on a $60 / 200-mile listing is $36 host at 80% share — before you argue about the odometer photo. Occupancy and the daily rate still move the month. Put the rate you will actually take in the calculator.
