Vision 2030: Zipcar's Electrification Journey

 

Zipcar’s electrification journey started back in 2012, with our plug-in hybrid vehicles, and in 2023 we reached 1,000 EVs in our fleet. Electric car sharing is fundamentally important to London, which is why we have re-committed to a 100% electric Zipcar fleet and to make this happen by 2030.
