DriveNow

DriveNow was a one-way carsharing service wholly owned by the automotive manufacturer BMW.

[1] In 2019, DriveNow and car2go, a carsharing service from Daimler AG, merged to form the global mobility provider Share Now,[2] with a combined fleet of 20,000 vehicles in 31 cities in 14 countries and over four million members worldwide.

[7] Apart from five cities in Germany - Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Düsseldorf, and Cologne - DriveNow is available in Vienna, Copenhagen, Brussels, Milan, Helsinki and Lisbon.

[12] A similar BMW service, ReachNow, was offered in North American cities from April 2016 to July 2019, in Seattle, Washington, Portland, Oregon and Brooklyn, New York.

[13] The following table details all cities where DriveNow operated: In contrast to classic car rental, where a vehicle is rented at a designated location and typically returned after one or more days, one-way carsharing models allows the use of freely parked vehicles in the city area, or business area.

[34] In the San Francisco Bay Area, DriveNow deployed a fleet of 70 BMW ActiveE electric cars by July 2015.
