who exactly is the car-sharing type?
Members use Zipcar as an alternative to the costs and hassles of owning or renting a car. But is Zipcar for you? See if you can relate to one of these situations.
I want to save money.
I take public transit, but need a car sometimes.
Once in a while, I need a second car.

I want to jumpstart my business.
I want wheels when I travel.
I want to be kind to the planet.
this idea is bigger than all of us
Imagine a world with one million fewer cars on the road. We do.
Fewer cars. Way Fewer.
Each and every Zipcar takes 13 personally-owned vehicles off the road. Multiply that by the thousands of cars in our fleet and you've got a really big number.
The sharing movement.
10% of the population is expected to adopt car sharing as their primary mode of transportation. Why buy the car if you can get the gas for free?
Driving smarter.
After joining Zipcar, 90% of our members drove 8,800 kilometers or less per year. That adds up to more than 121 million liters of crude oil left in the ground—or 829 liters saved per Zipster.
More green space.
What would the world look like if everybody shared cars instead of owned them? Save paradise and tear down that parking lot.
