Useful (and I hope helpful) clarification from the Mayor that he appreciates that car clubs contribute to exceptionally low levels of car ownership (and use) in inner London.

I wonder what the odds are of a VC firm or large multi-national rental brand already part owned by the same buying #Zipcar for £1 are? 🤔

Does Zipcar Leaving UK Have Any Relevance To Robotaxi Dreams? There’s news this week that Zipcar is leaving the UK is interesting in multiple ways. I was an early Zipcar user back in 2004–2007. I loved it, and it helped me not own a car. Over the years, I was thus a big proponent of carsharing programs and even tried ...

I’m not going to buy a car because #zipcar has gone. Probably just pay for more deliveries or hire person-with-van when necessary. It’s a shame though, felt like they helped me keep my hand in with driving for the occasional times it’s a useful skill.

Zipcar to Close UK Operations, Ending London Car-Sharing Fleet - thedailyculture.com Zipcar will shut down its UK operations by the end of 2025, ending access to its London car-sharing fleet amid rising costs and policy pressures.

Zipcar Exits UK Amid Rising Costs and Challenges ✔️🇬🇧📍⬇️ thedailyculture.com/zipcar-to-cl... #zipcar #uk #economy

Oh. #ZipCar has started a consultation to shut down their UK business...

We don't own a car and that was our goto solution for those 10 times a year where we needed one

#Richomond

Got an email today to say that #Zipcar are planning to shut down. I'm only an occasional user, but this sucks if, like me, you don't want to own a car in London.

Guess I need to start looking into alternatives.

Screengrab of email from Zipcar. Text is: Zipcar proposes to cease its UK operations I'm writing to let you know that we are proposing to cease the UK operations of Zipcar and have today started formal consultation with our UK employees. We will temporarily suspend bookings, pending the outcome of this consultation. This means it will not be possible to make any new bookings beyond 31st December 2025, pending the outcome of the consultation Although we propose to cease operations in the UK, your account will remain open until the final decision is made following the consultation This means you're still able to use Zipcars until 31st December 2025. If you would like to see what other car sharing options there are in your area, please visit the national charity for shared transport, CoMoUK’s website. If you have any questions, please visit our Help Centre.

Surprised and a little disappointed to learn by email that #ZipcarUK car sharing club is closing down next year.

I use their cars a couple of times a year to do things that I need a car for. It'll be a right hassle to have to book a car through a regular […]

Has anyone used @zipcar.bsky.social flex to hire a car to go to the shop (like ASDA) and back?
Just trying to decide whether I can use flex for this & have the car coming out of the shop to drive home or if I need a round trip. #zipcar #london

Just had to move 250kgs of paintings for my partner’s dad to a gallery, in the rain, so this was a job for a car not a bike!

Rented a little #Hyundai Ioniq through #Zipcar and was impressed - nippy & manoeuvrable on congested #London roads, but with a decent carrying capacity.

Fully electric […]

But at any rate, my birthday was July 3rd, my son’s is July 4th, and we’re generally celebrating all around even if it is my new personal mission to destroy #Zipcar for ruining our carefully orchestrated plans. 🤷‍♀️

This is 47 folks, no more tolerating BS or performative comfort.

@zipcar.bsky.social ruined our day by changing the car we reserved and it was not accessible from the new location (street closures).

I picked the car I picked and paid for it and now I’m wondering what is even the point of #Zipcar at all if they won’t honor my choices. 🤔

Last weekend, we’ve had a MG ZS Hybrid for a day thanks to #Zipcar. Lots of technical gimmicks, which I loved. However, the headrest on the seats was awful and how can you have all these hi-tech stuff in a car but then rely on wired CarPlay?

Still, it got […]

Speed limit on the #SouthCircular (A London main road) was reduced to 20mph in March last year (I tooted about it back then : https://rouge.eu.org/@jfparis/112095838578504118 I updated #OpenStreetMap straight immediately at the time.

So, is the luxurioos #RV going to be available on #Zipcar ?

My household has yet to have a #Zipcar experience wherein our reserved car was where it was supposed to be, available for our use, & accessible via the app on our phone. It sucks, because we need a car only 4-5 times a year & this would be a great solution. But it has never functioned as promised.

A Black Friday outage of Zipcar’s app left users locked out of cars, stranded in unsafe conditions, or hit with surprise fees. This highlights the need for app-based services to adopt safety measures, like manual overrides, to protect users during outages. #TechFails #Zipcar

Secret Meeting in the #ZipCar now!

A few years ago, even most advocates thought #carsharing wouldn't work in places like Dallas. #zipcar is about to crush those assumptions.

Just like #Zipcar, #Uber, #Lyft, & #Sidecar will increase transit ridership by reducing auto dependency. m.theatlanticcities.com/commute/2013/07/no-rides...
