Congested city cores, scarce parking, greenhouse gas emissions, gas prices, maintenance costs and other problems have made cars, once a symbol of freedom, seem increasingly a burden.
Car-Sharing
There is a Solution to the Problem and It's Called Car-Sharing
By combining the flexibility of personal vehicles with reduced disamenities and complete control of management costs, car-sharing pools boost automobile utilization rates.
Did you know that individual's cars spend 95% of their time parked and cost their owners an average of €6,000 a year ?
They are a real alternative to personal cars.
- Inexpensive: drivers pay based on actual use only.
- Green: each shared vehicle replaces 5 to 8 personal vehicles.
- Practical and effective: a vehicle is available close to home, without paperwork hassles, 24/7.
It is an easy-to-use system for customers, who can view available vehicles and their locations and reserve one at a Website. There is also a fully self-service system, which lends vehicles without reservations.
The logic is the same as for self-service bicycle programs. Everyone uses the car for their own needs, whether shopping, evenings out on the town, business meetings or other choices.
