Car-sharing has become a key solution for sustainable mobility, reducing CO₂ emissions and promoting shared vehicle use. Here’s an overview of the main models — plus the collaborative newcomer: co-driving.
🚗 Round-trip car-sharing
- Pick up and return at the same station.
- Perfect for organised, planned trips.
- Often requires subscription + booking.
🚘 One-way car-sharing
- Pick up at point A, drop off at point B.
- Very convenient in urban environments.
- Depends on station availability.
🚙 Free-floating car-sharing
- Use an app to locate a nearby car.
- Drop the vehicle anywhere within an authorised zone.
- Extremely flexible but may lack availability.
🤝 Peer-to-peer car-sharing
- Organised between individuals or via platforms.
- Works well in rural or suburban areas.
- Requires good coordination and booking management.
🌿 Co-driving: collaborative car-sharing
Unlike traditional models, co-driving involves transporting someone else’s vehicle from A to B.
On the collaborative platform CoCarmoov :
- A private co-driver conducts the vehicle.
- Compensation : €0.10/km.
- May include moving assistance, carpooling or parcel-sharing.
- Encourages eco-driving and optimises existing routes.
Co-driving represents a new chapter in shared mobility — more efficient, greener and truly collaborative.
