The app-based on-demand car rental service Virtuo announced the addition of the Model Y to its fleets in London and Paris.
Per the announcement, customers in Paris and London will soon be able to book the Model Y for delivery and collection for 72 pounds per day.
Currently, the London fleet has the following cars to choose from:
- Tesla Model Y
- Tesla Model 3
- Mercedes GLA
- Mercedes A-Class
- Volkswagen Polo
The company committed to making 50 per cent of its fleet electric by 2025. By 2030, Virtuo hopes to be 100 per cent EV.
In addition to moving to EVs, the company also offers Virtuo renters the ability to offset their carbon footprint.
Users can choose a clean energy project in Europe to donate their carbon offset towards.
CEO and Founder of Virtuo, Karim Kaddoura, had this to say on the announcement of the Model Y and further UK expansion:
We’re incredibly excited to continue our EV expansion here in the UK and offer our customers the best possible experience in a growing number of locations. We want to provide a service that can ultimately facilitate car free cities. We’ve taken great strides at the start of 2022, and we have no plans of slowing down our journey to be the leading car on-demand experience.
Since being founded in Paris in 2016, Virtuo has expanded its services to seven European countries and continues to grow.
