You Can Now Test Drive Tesla FSD for a Weekend

Thinking about adding Full Self-Driving to your next Tesla but not sure if it's worth it? There is now an easier way to find out. This week, Turo started letting renters in the US search for Teslas with FSD (Supervised) turned on, so you can try it for a full weekend instead of a quick loop around the block.

Here is how it works. Tesla owners who rent out their cars on Turo can link their Tesla account to their Turo account. Turo then checks each car’s FSD status directly through Tesla’s system, and eligible listings show that FSD is active. Renters can filter their search to see only those cars, and some listings carry a “Self-Driving” label. Eligible hosts also get a free one-month FSD trial, which gives owners a good reason to turn it on before they list.

The timing makes sense. Model 3 and Model Y are the third and fourth most popular vehicles on Turo this year, and Tesla is seeing the same curiosity in its showrooms. On the Q3 earnings call, Tesla CFO Vaibhav Taneja described a shift in what customers ask for, saying they are now coming in and asking:

“Can we get into an FSD drive?”

That curiosity is showing up in the numbers too. Tesla says more than 75% of new vehicle deliveries in North America included FSD in the third quarter.

Turo is seeing the same thing. In its release, the company said people are very interested in driverless vehicles but have had little chance to experience one. Its 2026 Road Report found that more than one in five interested Americans would be comfortable spending seven hours or longer in a self-driving vehicle. A rental is one way to close that gap.

A few things are worth knowing before you book. FSD (Supervised) still needs your full attention. Turo shows cautionary language before the trip, asking drivers to monitor the software and be ready to take over at any moment, and renters can watch a Tesla-made tutorial first. Give yourself a little time to get comfortable with it. As with any rental, it is also smart to read the listing details and Turo’s protection options before you confirm. Prices are set by each host, so compare a few listings.

The feature is live in the US only for now.

For context, FSD (Supervised) costs $99 a month as a subscription in the US. A rental gives you a low-commitment way to see whether that price makes sense for how you drive. A weekend road trip will tell you far more about FSD than a short demo drive can, from highway cruising to city streets.

Tesla keeps finding new ways to put FSD in drivers’ hands, and this one is open to anyone with a Turo account. Whether you are shopping for a Tesla or just curious how far driver assistance has come, a rental may be the simplest way to find out.
