The application provides access to 16,000 cars for on-demand rental by the minute, hour, or day. Additionally, a selection of a dozen models is available for extended rentals starting from one month. Locations include major cities such as Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Kazan, Sochi, and 42 other regions catering to business needs.

Reasons for utilizing carsharing include various scenarios such as running errands, social outings, goods transportation, countryside trips, and regional travel. It serves as a convenient solution for business-related tasks such as courier services, sales visits, and merchandise transport. Even electric scooters can be accommodated by our vans, offering versatile usage options.

The car subscription feature allows users to access a vehicle for an extended period through flexible installment payments covering periods ranging from one month up to a year. The subscription includes essential services such as insurance coverage, maintenance, tire replacements, and doorstep delivery. Choose between economy and business class vehicles that are devoid of branding for discreet use.

The registration process is entirely managed through the app without requiring any physical visits. Applicants must be at least 21 years old with a minimum of 2 years of driving experience. Upon downloading the app, a step-by-step guide facilitated by a chat bot assists in submitting necessary documents and personal information for account activation.

All rental expenses are inclusive of services like paid parking, vehicle washing, refueling, repairs, and comprehensive insurance coverage.

The insurance package incorporates mandatory third-party liability (OSAGO), life insurance for drivers and passengers up to 2,000,000 ₽, as well as comprehensive insurance (CASCO) with a deductible for at-fault drivers. Maximum charges set at 40,000 ₽ for standard vehicles, 75,000 ₽ for premium models, and 150,000 ₽ for SUVs ensure cost predictability even in case of accidents. Opting for full CASCO coverage indemnifies users from damage charges provided correct accident reporting procedures are followed.
