Rent a Lucid Air in San Diego — 469 Miles, Open Every Day Sep 22 – Oct 5
The Lucid Air Grand Touring — up to 469 miles of EPA range, 819 hp, a glass-canopy cabin — from $99/day before Turo’s fees, with a free licensed pickup from SAN baggage claim to the car by an EGT driver. From Tuesday, September 22 through Monday, October 5, 2026 it’s open every day, midweek included, for trips up to a week. In our August 2026 survey it was the only Lucid rentable in San Diego County.
Open every day, Tuesday Sep 22 – Monday Oct 5, 2026
For these two weeks the Lucid isn’t just a weekend car: every day is open, midweek included, and trips can run 2 to 7 days with Turo’s 10% weekly discount applied automatically. Good timing for the Miramar Air Show weekend (Sep 25–27) and for anyone in town for a Convention Center conference who wants the week on one charge. From October 6 it returns to Friday–Monday weekends.
The car
Photos of this car, the one you book. Tan leather interior; 21-inch wheels. Current Turo listing photos are the authority on condition.
Direct answer
Yes — you can rent a Lucid Air Grand Touring in San Diego from $99/day, and from September 22 to October 5, 2026 any day of the week — the Turo listing is the only place to book it. It is a founder’s personal vehicle, listed personally — not a company car; the company does not rent cars, and cannot take a rental reservation by phone. Pickup is in Point Loma, or the car is delivered within 15 miles for the fee shown on the listing, with an in-person handover and a charging briefing. No Turo car may be handed over on SAN airport property, but the free licensed pickup from baggage claim by an EGT driver — a company service under TCP #0046494-A — bridges it legally, an arrangement no other host in the county can offer. Call or text (858) 522-0264 and an owner answers.

What 469 miles actually buys you
Range in an EV isn’t a number, it’s a feeling — the difference between planning a trip around chargers and just driving. EPA-rated up to 469 miles, the Grand Touring turns the map into one charge:
• The Palm Springs loop — out through the mountains, back along the desert floor, no charging stop required.
• LA and back, twice — SoFi show Friday, gallery Saturday, home Sunday, still charged.
• San Francisco, one way, one charge — the drive that sells the car.
• Julian → Borrego → the Salton Sea → home — the county’s emptiest, prettiest roads without a single range calculation.
And the cabin matches the mission: 819 hp when you ask for it, a glass-canopy roof, and a serenity the Taycan 4S deliberately trades for lap times. The Porsche is for the coast road; this is the car for the road. Every handover includes the charging briefing and a route plan — on this car, mostly for reassurance.
How you get it — and the airport rule nobody tells you
The rule: since June 30, 2024, Turo prohibits every host from handing over a vehicle anywhere on San Diego International Airport property. The bridge, free with your booking: Elite Green Transportation holds TCP #0046494-A, so a licensed EGT driver meets you at baggage claim in a BMW i7 or Escalade IQ-L and drives you to your Lucid — at no charge, scheduled when you book, flight-tracked on the day. Nobody else in the county holds the permit to offer this at any price. Otherwise, pick the car up in Point Loma or have it delivered to a hotel or address within 15 miles (fee shown on Turo). It arrives charged, and we walk it with you and photograph it together, on the spot.
Personal vehicles, not company cars — the line, drawn in ink
We would rather over-explain this than let anyone assume otherwise. These cars are the personal vehicles of Elite Green Transportation’s founders — owned personally, insured for personal listing, and listed on Turo in the founders’ personal capacity. They are not company cars. Elite Green Transportation does not rent cars.
| Personal — the founders, via Turo | Company — Elite Green Transportation (TCP #0046494-A) |
|---|---|
| The rental cars themselves: Mustang Mach-E, Porsche Taycan 4S, Lucid Air Grand Touring — personal property, personally listed | The licensed car-service fleet, always with a driver: BMW i7, Rivian R1S, Cadillac Escalade IQ-L |
| Your rental — contract, pricing, handover, and Turo’s verification & protection | The free black-car airport pickup — a licensed passenger trip under the company’s TCP permit |
| Not operated under TCP #0046494-A | Operated under TCP #0046494-A, $1.5M commercial insurance, verifiable at the CPUC |
One sentence to remember: the company drives you; the founders’ personal cars are the ones you drive. Same people, same standards — two deliberately separate lanes.

Frequently asked
Is this really the only Lucid for rent in San Diego?
In our August 4, 2026 survey of public Turo listings it was the only Lucid available to rent countywide — a dated observation, stated as ours; listings change. The dedicated exotic agencies quoted $500–800/day for comparable machinery in the same survey.
How do I book it?
On Turo, and only on Turo — this listing. We can’t take a rental reservation by phone: the car is a personal vehicle and Turo runs the contract, the driver check and the protection. Pick your dates there. Then text (858) 522-0264 to set up your free pickup from baggage claim.
Can I rent it midweek, or for a whole week?
Yes, from Tuesday September 22 through Monday October 5, 2026 — every day is open and trips run up to 7 days, with 10% off a full week. Outside those dates it rents Friday to Monday.
How many miles are included?
150 a day — 450 on a 3-day trip, 1,050 on a week. Extra miles are billed at the per-mile rate shown on the listing. There’s no unlimited-mileage option.
Whose car is this, exactly?
A personal vehicle of EGT’s founders, listed on Turo personally. Not a company car, not part of the TCP fleet — Elite Green Transportation does not rent cars. Your contract and protection are Turo’s; the free airport pickup is the company’s.
Where do I charge it?
Probably nowhere, on most weekends — that’s the point of 469 miles. If your route needs it, the handover briefing includes the fast chargers that actually work along your plan, and the car arrives at full charge either way.
Want the Turo link texted to you?
Tell us your dates and where you’d like the car, and an owner texts you back with availability and the direct Turo listing link. Prefer to skip the form? Call (858) 522-0264 or text us.
Want a driver for part of it?
Same owners, licensed company line: flat-rate SAN transfers, event round trips with a staged driver. One number: (858) 522-0264.
