MyWheels

MyWheels is the largest car-sharing platform in the Netherlands, offering a flexible and sustainable alternative to car ownership. Founded over a decade ago, the company has expanded nationwide, serving over 200,000 users and providing access to a fleet of nearly 3,000 vehicles, with a growing number of electric cars. MyWheels is dedicated to making mobility more accessible and environmentally friendly by reducing the number of privately owned vehicles on the road and helping to reduce CO₂ emissions.

The platform allows users to easily rent a variety of cars, from compact city models to spacious electric SUVs, in over 90 cities across the Netherlands. Customers can reserve a vehicle through the MyWheels app without the need for a subscription, paying only for the time and distance they use. This service is designed to offer a hassle-free solution for those who need a car occasionally but do not want the long-term financial commitments associated with ownership, such as insurance, maintenance, and taxes.

MyWheels stands out for its commitment to sustainability. The company has partnered with We Drive Solar to implement bidirectional charging technology, which enables electric vehicles to not only draw energy from the grid but also return excess power, turning the cars into mobile neighborhood batteries. This innovative approach is part of the company's mission to promote greener, more efficient transportation options and reduce urban congestion.

Over the years, MyWheels has grown significantly, with a 194% increase in customers and a 214% rise in trips in 2021 alone. The company also expanded its fleet and service areas by acquiring ConnectCar in 2022, strengthening its position as the leader in the Dutch car-sharing market. Today, MyWheels provides services to over 4,000 organizations across the Netherlands, offering businesses and their employees a sustainable and flexible way to get around.

Looking to the future, MyWheels continues to innovate in the field of shared mobility and energy integration. The collaboration with We Drive Solar is just one example of how the company is integrating mobility services with renewable energy solutions, helping to create a more sustainable future for transportation.
