A poll of Enterprise Car Club members has found that 20% are using the service for work-related journeys.

The research by CoMoUK also found that 36% came from ‘car-free’ households, and 28% chose car club membership in order to reduce emissions.

Other findings include that 27% of members are driving fewer miles since joining; 26% said they would have bought a car if they weren’t members; 18% said they now owned fewer personal vehicles; and 33% had tried an electric car club vehicle.

Andy Bland, head of business rental development UK and Ireland for Enterprise Mobility, said: “We are seeing more and more examples of how car clubs are improving mobility and enabling more sustainable business travel, while also giving employees a chance to experience driving an electric vehicle.

“They create a great user experience, and can help organisations implement progressive mobility strategies that support employee needs and deliver business goals.”
