Three handy hints before you hit the road
If you’ve never rented an electric car before, here are some handy hints to get you started.
Check the range
Our app and the dashboard will show you an approximate range. Speed, cold weather, air-conditioning and heating will impact the car’s mileage. You’ll find more tips here.
Plan your route
If you’re taking a longer trip you may need to charge the car. Just make sure you plan where your nearest rapid charging station will be - Check our latest charging guide tips.
It’s quiet
Our EV's are super quiet. You’ll know you’re ready to drive when the dashboard screen lights up! You can find out more about your first EV experience here.

Our vision for 2030
Electric car sharing is crucial to London's future, which is why we have re-committed to make this happen. We’ve seen that when we set an ambitious target we can achieve great things. Although we would like to do this sooner than 2030, it remains an ambitious, but realistic target, given the economic and infrastructure challenges and is five years ahead of the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars. By working together, we can make this vision a reality.
