Score one car.
Turo shows you gross revenue. That is a count of what came in, not a measure of whether the car is worth owning. This page runs the same scoring engine the paid product uses, in your browser, on a few numbers you type — and shows you every component, every weight, and exactly what is missing.
Anyone can count the seeds in an apple. Only a record can tell you how many apples are in a seed. A score is a photograph of one window; the value is in keeping the film.
The numbers
Two fields are needed for a score. Every other field turns on one more component and is labelled with how much of the model it unlocks. Leave a box empty if you do not know it — an empty box is treated as unknown, never as zero, and the component that depended on it is excluded and named rather than guessed at.
Nothing you type is uploaded. The scoring engine is a JavaScript file your browser already downloaded, and the score is computed on this page. No network request on this page carries a figure from this form. You can check it: open DevTools → Network before you type, and watch nothing go out when the score appears. The page does load Google Analytics, as every page on this site does — it records that the page was viewed, and never sees the form.
Already on the computer with your earnings export? Fill four of these from the file.
This is a shortcut, not the front door — a platform export cannot be downloaded on a phone, which is why typing is the primary path. If the file is on this machine, drop it here and it will fill in gross revenue, booked days, days listed and months held for one car. It is read by this page's own JavaScript; it is not uploaded either.
The score
Nothing scored yet
Put in gross revenue and fees above and the score appears here, along with a component table and a list of what is still missing.
How the score is built
Five components. Five weights that add to 100. Each component is scored 0–100 against a stated anchor, then weighted — and the weights are renormalized over only the components that could actually be computed, so a partial score is never quietly padded with zeroes. The weights and the anchors are printed below because an unexplained threshold is unfalsifiable.
| Component | Weight | What full marks means |
|---|---|---|
| Profitability | 30 | A 50% operating margin — operating profit over net revenue — scores 100. A 0% margin scores 0, and a negative margin floors at 0 rather than going negative. |
| Return on capital | 25 | A 25% annualized cash return on what you paid scores 100 — roughly the return that makes running a car on a marketplace worth the risk against leaving the capital in an index fund. |
| Utilization | 20 | 70% of available days booked scores 100. Sustained higher usually means the car is underpriced rather than exceptional. |
| Maintenance burden | 15 | Wear spend at 0% of net revenue scores 100; at 50% or more it scores 0. Wear only — insurance and registration are time-based and are counted as fixed costs instead. |
| Value retained | 10 | 60% of the purchase price still held as market value scores 100. Market value only — tax book value is never used, because bonus depreciation and Section 179 zero a car that has lost almost nothing. |
| Total | 100 | A score is comparable to a fully-modelled car only at or above 60% of that total. |
What this number is not
- Weights are a stated editorial judgement, not a fitted model — there is no outcome label to fit against.
- Descriptive of a vehicle's own history. Not a prediction and not a valuation.
- A score below the comparability threshold is NOT rankable against a fully-modelled vehicle.
- A score carries the methodology version that produced it. Scores from two versions are on two scales and must never be compared without saying so.
The weights above are this page's no-JavaScript fallback, locked to the scoring module by test/score-page-honesty.test.js. With JavaScript on, the methodology version and every figure in that table are rendered from the module itself.
A score is one photograph
Everything above came from one window you typed from memory or from a single export. That is a snapshot, and a snapshot of a car's economics is worth roughly what a snapshot of a stock price is worth. The thing that compounds is the record: twelve months of logged service, a purchase price that stays attached to the car, a market value re-checked each quarter, a disposal recorded when it happens. None of that can be reconstructed later — a year of vehicle economics that was never written down is simply gone.
That record is what Fleconomy IQ keeps. Every plan has every feature, including the free one; the only difference between plans is how many vehicles they track — Solo one, Operator three, Fleet ten, Empire unlimited. So start free, keep everything you record, and change plan only when the fleet outgrows the count.

Questions
What is a Fleconomy Score?
A 0–100 number describing how one vehicle has performed as a business asset, built from five weighted components: profitability at 30, return on capital at 25, utilization at 20, maintenance burden at 15 and value retained at 10. The weights are a stated editorial judgement, not a fitted model — there is no outcome label to fit against, and pretending otherwise would be an overclaim. Every component, every weight and every sub-score is shown on this page, so the number can be argued with rather than believed.
Is any of what I type uploaded?
No. The scoring engine is a JavaScript file your browser already downloaded, and the score is computed in the page. This page makes no network request that carries any figure from the form. You can check it: open your browser's Network panel before you type and watch nothing go out when the score appears. The page does load Google Analytics, as every page on this site does; it records that the page was viewed and never sees the form.
Why does my score say it is not comparable?
Because too little of the model could be computed from what you entered. Completeness is the share of the total weight that was actually scored. Below 60 percent, a score is still an honest summary of what you told us, but it is not on the same scale as a vehicle scored on all five components — ranking the two against each other would be a fabrication dressed as a leaderboard. The page shows which inputs are missing and exactly how much weight each one would unlock.
Should I enter my whole loan payment?
No — enter the interest only. A loan payment is part interest and part principal. Interest is a real cost of running the car. Principal is a balance-sheet transfer: it buys the asset, which is already counted as the purchase price in the return-on-capital denominator. Subtracting the whole payment from profit counts the car twice, once as capital and again as an expense, and is the most common way a vehicle P&L is built wrong.
Can I use my tax depreciation figure as the market value?
No. Tax depreciation and economic depreciation are different things. Bonus depreciation and Section 179 can write a vehicle down to nothing in its first year while the car itself has lost almost none of its market value. Value retained is only ever measured against what the car would sell for today, so use a real market estimate.
Do I have to pay to keep this?
No. Every Fleconomy IQ plan, including the free Solo plan, has every feature. The only difference between plans is how many vehicles they track: Solo one, Operator three, Fleet ten, Empire unlimited. Nothing on this page is behind a plan, and nothing you record on a free account gets taken away when you stay free.
Is Fleconomy affiliated with Turo?
No. Turo is a supported data source — its earnings export is one of the files Fleconomy IQ can read — and nothing more. There is no partnership, affiliation or endorsement of any kind.
