Strategic Analysis of European and North American
P2P Carsharing Market
Cost and Other Benefits Drive Peer-to-Peer
Carsharing Industry
Key Highlights
• The peer–to–peer (P2P) car sharing model—with an average rental of 2 to 3 days—is
evolving to fill the gap between car rental and traditional car sharing.
• Traditional P2P carsharing operators (CSOs) are beginning to diversify their business
models by expanding their service offerings to provide airport and train station rentals.
• Growth of P2P car sharing is underpinned by the growth of the sharing economy. This
will lead virtual marketplace providers and operators in the P2P market to include
vehicles in their platform, like Zilok and e-loue.
• Integration of other business models such as ridesharing and traditional carsharing
with P2P carsharing is expected to boost member growth in future.
• Legal regulations on age restriction of drivers and insurance type are anticipated to
change in order to facilitate growth of P2P car sharing.

Executive Summary — CEO’s Perspective
2
Keyless entry devices are more common in
North America as insurance and warranty
conditions prevent the installation of such
devices in certain parts of Europe.
3
Markets such as the United Kingdom and
Denmark are beginning to experience an
influx of P2P CSOs. These markets are
relatively nascent with huge potential,
already attracting foreign P2P CSOs.
4 Traditional CSOs in North America are
expected to enter the P2P car sharing market
by 2016.

Capital investments are low compared to a
traditional car rental or a car sharing service
as the P2P CSO does not have to invest in a
vehicle fleet and the business model is
asset-light.
