Zipcar

Zipcar is the world's leading car-sharing network, driven by a mission to enable simple and responsible urban living. Members can reserve any Zipcar vehicle in New York City or across the globe by the hour or the day, including the cost of gas, maintenance and insurance. An alternative to traditional car rental and car ownership, Zipcar offers the most comprehensive, most convenient and most flexible car-sharing options available in cities across the United States and around the world.

Zipcar is offering IDNYC cardholders a 50% discount on standard first-year membership. This offer is only valid for first-time Zipcar memberships, is non-transferable, and may only be used by the cardholder. Apply online on Zipcar's website. Be sure to have your IDNYC identification number ready to take advantage of this offer. Discounts vary based on vehicle type and apply to weekday reservations, only.

All membership applications are subject to Zipcar's approval process.

Starting in Summer 2018, the New York City Department of Transportation will begin its 2-year carshare pilot program, setting aside more than 300 parking spaces solely for Zipcar and Enterprise CarShare vehicles. Learn more about the careshare pilot program
