About Getaround

Getaround empowers users to instantly rent and drive great cars shared by people in their city. Cars can be rented by the hour or the day, with a $1M insurance policy and 24/7 roadside assistance included. By using its app, people skip the lines and paperwork at traditional rental car counters and the hassle of buying and maintaining a car. Powered by Getaround Connect™, the patented connected car technology, Getaround creates a fun and safe carsharing experience without the need to meet the car owner, carry an access card, or coordinate picking up a car key. People share everything from a Prius to a Tesla and earn thousands in extra income each year, offsetting the high cost of car ownership while also making a positive impact on the environment.
