Turo and L&C Tackle the "Lease Trap" in New Campaign for Flexible Monthly Car Access

May. 07, 2026

What if your car could change as fast as your life does? Turo is embracing that idea in a new campaign that reimagines car ownership for those that value flexibility over commitment. Created in partnership with independent, award-winning creative agency L&C, the campaign brings to life a simple truth: life doesn’t follow a fixed plan, so why should your car?

At the center of the campaign is a tongue-in-cheek film that follows a protagonist as life keeps throwing curveballs: new relationships, twins they didn’t plan on, a routine that never quite sticks. Each chapter is punctuated by a different car that fits the moment. 

From practical to aspirational, understated to indulgent, the vehicles shift as seamlessly as the character’s circumstances, underscoring Turo Monthly, Turo’s long-term rental product as a smarter, more adaptable alternative to traditional ownership or leasing.

David Corns, Chief Marketing Officer said:

"Turo is reinventing car rental. More people need a car beyond a single trip but don’t want the burden of ownership or a fixed lease. Turo Monthly offers a simple, flexible way to get the right car for as long as it fits their life. The car you need, without the commitment."

 

By highlighting long-term rentals, the campaign positions Turo as a compelling alternative to the rigidity of leases and the permanence of ownership. With hundreds of thousands of vehicles available across a wide range of price points and styles, Turo allows customers to tailor their driving experience to their evolving needs, without long-term commitments.

Rolando Cordova Co-Founder & CCO at L&C said:

"Our idea was to highlight the flexibility Turo offers by dramatizing a simple truth: life can change quickly, and so do your needs – especially when it comes to your car. With Turo Monthly, you can adapt just as easily, switching cars as your life evolves."

 

The campaign will roll out across Turo’s main global markets, across digital, social, connected TV, and OOH strategically positioned near car dealerships, in the US, Canada, Australia, France and the UK,  supported by cutdowns and platform-specific executions that highlight different life scenarios and vehicle choices. Each piece reinforces the same core message: whatever life throws at you, there’s a car for that.

As consumer attitudes continue to shift away from ownership toward access, Turo’s latest work positions the brand at the center of a cultural transition, one where flexibility isn’t just a perk.
