If you need a car sometimes to go grocery shopping or get to a place where public transit won’t take you, want to save money, don’t want the hassle of owning a car, don’t want to make an environmental footprint by owning a car, need a second car once in a while, or need a bigger car for a camping trip or move, Zipcar may be for you.
With Zipcar, it’s quick and easy to join online and you can reserve a car online by searching by time, location, price or model just minutes or months in advance. With Zipcar, you literally pay as you go; if you only need a car for 2 hours, then that’s what you’ll pay for. Gas, insurance and miles are all included. Zipcar rates and plans vary according to where you live. If you’re a New Yorker, for example, you’ll pay $25 to join Zipcar and a $50 annual fee. Hourly rates start at $8 and daily rates start at $77. You can also score plenty of special deals.
Zipcar is perfect for the occasional driver, and makes plenty of economical sense.
