Why Flexicar?

Flexicar is a Melbourne carsharing service that provides a cheap and green alternative to car ownership for individuals and businesses.

Together, we reduce car usage, traffic and parking pressures, save our members money and unite communities to reduce our environmental footprint. Carsharing is ‘all-inclusive’ car rental by the hour or the day. Our rates include fuel, insurance and all on-road costs. Registered Flexicar members have access to our fleet of car share vehicles managed and maintained by Hertz Australia.

  1 May 2013
  
  We’re thrilled to now have 150 Flexicars in the fleet, all outthere sitting on the streets of Melbourne waiting for you, our members, to drive. With the addition of our Yaris’, Golfs and now the Dualis’ we’ve not only expanded our fleet but we’ve expanded our range of vehicle types. And there are more surprises to come…
  
  But this month, to celebrate this milestone, we’re going to offer you our standard cars for three days, any three consecutive three-days in May, for $150 (thanks for the suggestion Shingo!)

- Green with envy?
  
  Not a Flexicar member and feeling green with envy that you can’t drive our new Golfs?
  
  Join Flexicar before the end of April and you’ll get half-price annual damage cover ($35 instead of $70) AND we’ll give you $30 of driving credit for your first booking so you can try a Golf, an Elantra, an X-Trail or an i30 for free. Join Flexicar online now quoting promo code GREEN13 to get the discount and the $30 trial credit and you’ll be able to take advantage of our great April driving specials too, like 24for4 and our Anzac Day 4-day weekend.
  
  There’s no need to feel green, you too can drive a new Golf.

  We really want you to give it a go and try driving the Flexifleet to see how cost-effective carshare can be and how convenient for your lifestyle.
  
  So, become a Flexicar member in May and we’ll give you $100 of free driving credit to get you going. And if you join our new, casual, Intro plan there’s no credit purchase each month… you’ll just pay for the driving you do and if you don’t drive, you won’t pay.
  
  When you join just quote the promo code: 100JOIN13
  
  There is no joining fee with Flexicar so you just need to pay your annual damage cover ($70) and in return we’ll give you $100 of driving credit so you can get straight out into our cars and drive. Cars like the new VW Golf, new Nissan Dualis, the great little Yaris’ and our awesome i30s and Elantras.
  
  As a Flexicar member you can drive a different car every day!
  
  There are no security deposits with Flexicar and no credit-card pre-authorisations either. And every booking you make includes 100kms of driving.
  
  It really is that straightforward, but don’t take our word for it… read some of the feedback from our members on our Facebook page.

FRIDAY! It's nearly the weekend, so we've activated another new pod! "Clover," the first of our BRAND NEW 2013 Toyota Corolla hatchbacks just rolled into a new pod on Burnley Street in Richmond. The new pod is on east side of Burnley Street, just south of the intersection with Bliss Street. Don't confuse this new pod with the other two we have on Burnley Street though! So go ahead and booked Clover this weekend, you might just get lucky.May 24
