Providers

The shared car landscape in the Netherlands

Car sharing is growing, and the range of providers is more varied than many people realise. Below you can read how the landscape is structured: the different ways of sharing, which providers are active, and which ones are included in the comparator.

Each provider is classified by sharing model and by coverage. Click a provider for a short description; the six green ones are available to compare now. The list of providers is based on the overview at startmetdelen.nl; the classification by model and coverage is by Deelautowijzer.nl. Reference date June 2026.

Three ways, briefly explained

With an own fleet, the provider owns and maintains the cars. You know in advance which type of car you get and what it costs, with uniform rates and professional service. This is the most familiar model, and the only one with fixed rates we can compare. Depending on the provider, you return the car to a fixed spot, anywhere within a designated zone nearby, or park it freely in a larger service area.

With peer-to-peer sharing, people rent out their own cars to each other via a platform. The largest and most varied supply, but the owner sets the price. And with community based sharing, a neighbourhood or group jointly owns a car and splits the costs, often the cheapest option, but it requires mutual arrangements.

Where do the six operate?

Greenwheels has by far the widest coverage; the other five are deliberately more regional or selective.

Why are not all providers in the comparator?

Peer-to-peer and community-based providers do not have fixed rates: the price depends on the owner or on agreements within the neighbourhood group, and varies per trip. A fair comparison is therefore not possible.

A number of own-fleet providers, such as Check, Free2move, Hely, JustGo and Wheelshare, operate regionally without national standardised rates. They will be added as soon as that changes.
