eGo Car Share


What is eGo Car Share?
eGo CarShare provides access to a network of energy-efficient vehicles throughout Denver and Boulder, allowing members to pay per trip without the commitment of owning a car. Vehicles are conveniently stationed, often near transit and bicycle facilities and are accessible to members with valid reservations 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

It’s a pay as you drive system that makes sense and saves cents!

eGo CarShare has a variety of new, fuel-efficient vehicles stationed in convenient locations throughout the Denver-Boulder area.  Here is a link to find: locations.

A UC Berkeley study done for San Francisco's City CarShare, found that 30% of City CarShare households sold one or more of their cars after joining the program and automobile travel among members dropped 47%. The study concluded that City CarShare members save 720 gallons of gas or 20,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions on a daily basis. (Environmental Defense Fund)
