Our Mission: Making your own car obsolete

What streaming has achieved with DVDs, we are achieving with our mobility offering. Because we think people are only willing to give things up if the alternatives are more attractive.

With simple operation via app, fair pricing through smart algorithms and great availability at every corner, we make car ownership obsolete. Don't tie yourself down to owning an expensive & inefficient car, drive when you want, what you want. From convertible to electric car to SUV. We convince even the most passionate driver with mobility on demand.

CarVia offers the carefree experience from a 10-minute shopping trip to a 2-week vacation.

So download the CarVia app now and #movedifferent.

Julian Reik

CFO / Co-Founder

Julian sees optimization opportunities where actually overoptimization has already taken place. Above all, customers benefit from this, as all services and processes contain 100% CarVia DNA.

On average, an owner-occupied car is only driven for 46 minutes a day.

This corresponds to 3% of the actual possible usage time.
