The Smart Alternative to Owning a Car
AutoShare is Toronto's first - and favourite - car sharing network, 100% Canadian and locally-owned. We're dedicated to providing greater mobility and convenience to people living in Toronto; and, to reducing carbon emissions and pollution through efficiency and choice. Our goal is to have a shared-vehicle within a 5 minute walk of anywhere in the city; at every TTC station; and at the end of your street. We know that car sharing is crucial to the long term health of our urban environment - and economy.
History
In the mid-1990s, a news story about European car sharing brought this market-based solution to air quality and traffic problems to the attention of a few enterprising Canadians. And so it was that on October 6, 1998, AutoShare was launched with a group of 16 pioneering members sharing 3 cars in Riverdale, the Annex and St. Lawrence Neighbourhood.
Since then, AutoShare has grown across Toronto, with 7,000 individuals, families and businesses sharing cars for their business and personal driving needs. For car sharing on other cities, please see CarSharing.net or CarSharing.ca.
