Overview

Founded in 2010 by Paulin Dementhon, Drivy is Europe's leading carsharing platform - with 55,000 cars shared across six countries, a community of two and a half million users.

Car sharing is increasingly becoming the efficient alternative to owning a car. The Drivy app allows drivers to find a nearby car, open it with their smartphone and drive away. Costs include fully comprehensive insurance with Allianz and 24/7 roadside assistance from ARC Europe. With vehicles ]sourced from private owners and dedicated fleets, Drivy allows private owners to reduce the cost of owning a vehicle while helping fleet owners to maximise their investment.

Drivy aims to bring fresh air to cities, by encouraging fewer cars on the road and more freedom to move.
