RENT A LOOP CAR IN HAMILTON FOR $15 PER HOUR
A self-drive car sharing service has launched in Hamilton.
Waikato company Loop has signed an agreement with the council to provide a car sharing service in Hamilton for three years.
The cars are Volkswagen Golf, based near Waikato Museum on Victoria St, but users can also find them using Loop's phone app.
Users must download the app from the Google Play or Iphone store to book a car, from there users are able to drive the car around Hamilton at a cost of $15 an hour.
The car has insurance cover, but a $1000 excess will need to be paid if the driver damages the vehicle.
Hamilton is the latest city to get on board with car sharing. Loop allows users to book, access, drive and pay for a vehicle through the phone app.
Loop said the average vehicle owner used their car for only about 4 per cent of the time it was owned.
Car sharing, which is huge in Europe and North America, connects customers to communal vehicles that are parked in convenient spaces around town, allowing them to be used on a pay-by-the-minute basis.
