Peer-to-peer car rental company Turo has partnered with the Adult Swim network to create the Mortymobile, which is based on the TV show “Rick and Morty.”
Unveiled at the Adult Swim Festival in Los Angeles, this one-of-a-kind vehicle will be available to rent on Turo. From Nov. 18-25, the Mortymobile will be available to Los Angeles Turo customers and will then head to San Diego in December. More cities and dates will be announced for 2020.
Hand-crafted using fiberglass, the Morty is fixed atop a five-door hatchback. To book the Mortymobile, sign up to drive on Turo. To drive the Mortymobile, all participants must be 30 years old and will be subject to security screenings and a security deposit.
All proceeds from the Mortymobile bookings will go to an organization that supports women in technical fields.
