How Autoshare Works
 

Introduction to Car Sharing


This smart alternative to owning a car is called car sharing. It’s a concept pioneered and proven in Toronto over the past nine years by the AutoShare Tteam. As an AutoShare member, you get 24 hour self-serve access to clean, modern cars - at over 100+ locations across the city - without the hassles, costs and headaches of ownership. Best of all, gas and insurance are included, hourly or daily rates are available always available, and the average price to drive is still under $7 / hour!

How can you start to have the freedom, fun and convenience of a car without the cost or hassle? It's easy!

1. Join
Join online and begin driving within days. It’s easy! All you need is a full class "G" license, a clean driving record, to be 23 years old and a desire to save money.

It costs just $25 to apply + $100 one-time Membership to join. Then choose to either pay-as-you-drive ($0 deposit), or pay your invoice once a month ($250 deposit).

All fees are one-time, and we have a 30-day moneyback guarantee. See Join for more info.

2. Reserve 24/7
As a member, you now have 24 hour, self-serve, instant security access to the biggest fleet of shared cars - and a cargo vans - in Toronto, stationed at 100+ convenient locations across Toronto. You can reserve a car for as little as an hour, or days at a time. To reserve your car, just go online or call us any time, day or night.

3. Self-serve access
Your car will be waiting at the location that you reserved. Your security access will get you into the car and on your way in seconds. When you are done, just bring the car back to the same spot. Drive as often or as little as you like.

4. Enjoy the monthly savings
At the end of each month, you will receive an itemized bill for the time and distance that you’ve driven. You’ll even get automatic discounts of up to 55% on longer trips. You are never charged for gas, insurance or maintenance. (We will simply charge your monthly bill to the credit card that you used to join, about the 10th of the next month, unless you indicate that you'd rather pay another way.)

How could it get any better?
Well, for starters, AutoShare members are building an insurance record (just like if they owned their own car). It could save you $1,000's a year if you do have to buy a car down the road. Members are also covered by $2 million in third party liability coverage (that's ten times the legal minimum, and the best in the car sharing business, because it feels good to be covered.)

Finally, AutoShare has teamed up with CarbonZero to let members offset the carbon emissions from each and every kilometre that they drive. It totally optional, but only costs about 0.5¢ per kilometre.


OK, I get it. But is it for me?

Hmm, I still have questions. Where can I find answers?

Sounds great! How do I join?
