TL;DR Turo is now operates in Nova Scotia
For a while as a Tesla owner, I enjoyed renting my car out on Turo. The money was decent, but more importantly I was helping the mission by giving people who may not otherwise have the chance to take an extended test drive in an EV to do so. My goal was always for the guests to walk away feeling like they needed to have a Tesla (or at least another EV of their own). I think I was mostly successful. I never had an issue with anyone else using my car.
I also really like renting other people's cars on Turo, EV or not. Just the same as with AirBnb, it's nice dealing with another human over these things. The prices are great and the selection is diverse. Critically now that I have sold my Tesla, it's the only real way to rent a Tesla or any EV for that matter.
Up until now Turo Canada has only operated in BC, Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec, but they've just announced they have expanded into Nova Scotia, with further expansion plans to PEI on the horizon.

It's early, but I did a quick search and see no Teslas in Halifax. If you are living in the HRM and can afford to part with yours on occasion, please list it! I'd love to drive yours when I'm back this summer. And I'd love to keep future trips EV-only since I miss mine so much.
DM me if you need a referral code worth $25 USD off your first ride.
