On four wheels

Whether you call it carpooling, ridesharing or just 'giving someone a lift', one of the most common and efficient forms of shared mobility involves collating similar journeys into one vehicle.

Thanks to the rise in ridesharing apps, it's now easier than ever to carpool your way around - reducing the need for a vehicle and its associated costs for many people.

As an alternative to ridesharing, car sharing gives you personal access to a network of cars for short-term hourly hire. Carsharing is ideal for people who need occasional access to a car (for example, for shopping trips or travel further afield), but don’t use a car enough to warrant the costs of ownership.

Carsharing apps like Enterprise Car Club make picking up a car near to you easy and cost effective, with many platforms also offering electric models to make your journey more sustainable.
