Today is an important day for the circular economy and the shared mobility sector across Europe. GoMore has acquired the European operations of the U.S. company Getaround, and with this deal, we become the continent’s largest car-sharing service!
"This merger strengthens our position not only across Europe, but also in Estonia," says Boris Perkiö, GoMore’s Country Manager for Estonia and Finland.
What does this mean for you, our user?
The acquisition announced today will not affect our users or our service in Estonia; our local operations will continue as usual. Over time, however, our expansion into new countries will also bring many benefits to us here in Estonia:
Seamless travel: Going forward, you’ll be able to rely on GoMore in an ever-growing number of destinations across Europe. Whether it’s a business trip to Brussels, a ski vacation in Norway, or a road trip in France, you’ll find a car through the familiar app.
Additional income for car owners: As millions of users from Central and Southern Europe travel to Estonia, the rental rates for local car owners will rise even further.
Better technology: By combining resources, we can develop the app and keyless technology even faster.
Toward a More Sustainable Future
Both GoMore and Getaround share the same vision: cars are the world’s most underutilized resource. On average, they spend 95% of their time parked. We want to change that!
More and more Estonians, especially the younger generation, are questioning the necessity of owning a personal car. Peer-to-peer car rental offers a way to cover car expenses for those who own them, and flexible mobility for those who only need a car from time to time.
GoMore’s latest numbers at a glance:
11 countries: Estonia, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Austria, Switzerland, France, Germany, Spain, and Belgium.
70,000 cars: Europe’s largest selection of shared cars.
5 million users: A growing community that believes in sharing.
Thank you to all our users in Estonia! You have helped build this success story, which is now taking over all of Europe!
