In just a few years, Chippendale Car Rentalhas grown from a single vehicle into a thriving 43-car fleet, making it one of the most dynamic independent rental businesses in Sydney’s car hire market.
The business, founded by local entrepreneur Alexander Munao, is on track to surpass $400,000 AUD in annual revenue, driven by the power of Turo, the peer-to-peer platform reshaping how Australians rent cars.
Making Car Rental in Sydney Simple and Accessible
Chippendale Car Rental is based in the heart of Sydney’s inner city, offering drivers a convenient and cost-effective way to access vehicles without the hassle of traditional car hire.
With daily prices starting around $40, customers can choose from a diverse fleet of hatchbacks, sedans, SUVs, and people movers — ideal for both short-term trips and extended rentals.
The service covers Chippendale, Redfern, Surry Hills, Ultimo, Zetland, Glebe, Camperdown, Mascot, and other nearby suburbs, with pickup points located close to Sydney CBD and Sydney Airport.
“People don’t want complicated rental processes anymore,” Munao said. “Turo makes everything seamless — and that’s exactly why this model works.”
Turo Technology Driving Fleet Growth
The key to Chippendale Car Rental’s rapid expansion is its partnership with Turo. Unlike legacy rental companies that rely on counters and paperwork, all bookings are handled through the Turo app, where guests can browse vehicles, reserve, and unlock them keylessly in minutes.
Turo manages driver verification, payments, roadside support, and protection plans, allowing the business to scale fast without heavy overhead costs.
“Turo gave me the foundation to grow quickly,” Munao explained. “It’s efficient, modern, and perfect for a city like Sydney.”
Professional Standards With Local Service
While it operates as an independent business, Chippendale Car Rental runs with the efficiency of a major rental operator. The company uses GPS tracking, automated cleaning and maintenance routines, and a dedicated booking portalat chippocarshare.com.au.
Each vehicle is covered by Turo protection plans, includes 24/7 roadside assistance, and is fully integrated with digital booking technology, creating a smooth, secure experience for drivers.
A Smarter Way to Hire a Car in Sydney
As Sydney embraces flexible mobility solutions, peer-to-peer car sharing is quickly emerging as a mainstream alternative to car ownership. Chippendale Car Rental shows how local operators can use technology to build sustainable, scalable businesses that serve the community.
“Turo gives everyday people access to quality cars and gives hosts like me the structure to run a real business,” Munao said.
