Hello, Willkommen, Bienvenu
Welcome to car2love – the first car2go resource site and user community! Car sharing is the way of the future and car2go has finally made realistic with a free floating model. The car2love website will focus primarily on the North American market for now, with European information being added in the future.
What is car2go?
car2go is a subsidiary of Daimler AG that provides car sharing services in several cities in Europe and North America. It is the first car sharing company to provide a “free floating” model where a rental can be ended practically anywhere in the operating zone.
Why does this site exist?
Realistically, this site shouldn’t exist. The car2go concept is absolutely spectacular however the execution has not yet been perfected. This is understandable as it is a very unique and high tech system that has been built from the ground up in a very short period of time. Additionally, the user experience has not been fine tuned for the North American market. Some issues include a convoluted and difficult to navigate website, and a lack of detailed explanations of how the service works. Hopefully as the system continues to mature, improvements will be made. In the meantime, this site will aim to address these shortcomings!
