How Car Sharing Works

Owning a car in NYC or Brooklyn can be a huge challenge. Why stress? Rent cars by the hour from New York’s car share and get free gas, insurance and parking on return.

How it Works:

  • Find cars

    Cars are parked all around the borough—click “Find Cars” to find one near you!

  • Reserve

    Reserve your car for just the time that you’ll need it—from as little as 1 hour

  • Hop In

    Use your membership card to unlock the car and start/end your reservation

  • Drive Off

    Enjoy your driving freedom, and return the car to its reserved Carpingo spot

Carpingo™ is the freedom of a car only when you need it.

What it Costs:

After minimal membership, the only cost of driving a Carpingo car is your reservation time.

WE PAY FOR FUEL

That’s right! Just pull up and fill up with the fuel card kept in the vehicle.

WE PAY FOR INSURANCE:

Your Carpingo membership covers insurance for every reservation.

Eligibility:

We keep rates low by keeping insurance costs low. To make this possible, Carpingo members must be 21 years or older, have a valid driver’s license, and no convictions for drunk-driving, illegal possession of a vehicle or at-fault accidents over the last 3 years.
