The one-way service is one of the key features of the exceptionally successful provider Car2go. In Ulm, Germany, where Car2go was launched, 90% of the carsharing trips are one-way. Today, 10% of Ulm's population (170.000) is a Car2go customer. It is very popular among young people, 60% of customers being under 36 years old. Car2go offers a lot of flexibility, as it has a substantial fleet of 200 vehicles, making a reservation is not necessary and you pay per minute of car use. Parking is easy too: the vehicles can be parked in any public parking space that offers unlimited parking. The cars can also be parked on city-managed car parks and parking spaces, without charge or time limit. In addition, a large number of parking spaces in selected privately owned car parks are exclusively reserved for Car2go drivers, again without a charge. After a successful expansion to the USA (Austin, Texas), Car2go is now moving to Hamburg, Germany (more information).
