Compared to car ownership

If you drive your own car:

You have to pay insurance. Pay registration. Pay the mechanic. Buy new tyres. Clean it. Wash it. Find a parking space. Pay petrol costs. Worry about depreciation, damage and theft. And suddenly driving your own car isn’t that convenient anymore.

If you drive our Flexicars:

We pay your insurance.
We pay your registration.
We take the car to the mechanic for you.
We buy new tyres.
We clean it.
Wash it.
Iron it… sometimes.
We even pay for your petrol.
All our cars are reliable, new and energy-efficient.
All you have to do is drive.

So why buy a car when you can share ours? Carsharing makes financial and environmental sense.
