- City Car Club is one of the leading car club operators in the UK. Established in 2000 and with over 550 vehicles, it is the oldest and one of the largest Car Clubs operating at a national scale in the country. Operating a range of low-emissions vehicles, it uses the now standard technologies of online booking and smartcards access to the cars. Billed as "The thinking person's car", the company has received huge press attention, particularly as an example of a unique business thriving during the recent economic downturn. Its activities receive the broad support of academics in the field of sustainable development, many of whom view car clubs as an important part of the transport mix in a sustainable city. Relying upon support from local authorities, City Car Club works in partnership with communities, attempting to supplement existing public transport infrastructure and act as an alternative to conventional car ownership. On 28 August 2009, City Car Club acquired rivals WhizzGo creating the UK's largest network of hourly rental cars. In 2010 City Car Club added vans to their fleet meaning that members can book a van by the hour in the same way as they do with the cars.
