New perspectives on mobility.

Car ownership was long seen as a symbol of freedom, status, and independence. However, with the rise of Generation Z and the digital way of life, things are changing. Renting instead of buying a car is becoming increasingly common, especially among younger people and those living in urban areas.

Why are more and more people giving up car ownership?

  • High costs: insurance, fuel, maintenance, depreciation

  • Underuse: the average car sits idle more than 90% of the time.

  • Flexibility: renting allows you to use a car exactly when you need it.

  • Environment: less ownership means less traffic and fewer emissions.

Trends confirming the shift

Research shows that younger generations prefer investing in experiences rather than possessions. Cars are increasingly seen as a service rather than property. Under the mobility-as-a-service model, options such as monthly rentals, car sharing, and fast digital rentals are becoming more common. 🚗📱

Advantages of the car rental 
  • No long-term commitments: no need for leasing or loans.

  • Always a modern vehicle: no worries about depreciation.

  • Different vehicles for different occasions: a family weekend or a business trip.

  • App connectivity: easy booking, pickup, and return. 📱

Example from practice

Maja from Ljubljana says:

“I used to own a car that I drove only once a week. Now I prefer to rent a car when I go on trips. I do everything through an app, drive a better car than before – and pay less.” 🚗📱

Renting instead of buying a car is becoming the new mobility norm. Instead of being burdened by ownership, people use a car only when they actually need it. It’s a smarter, more environmentally friendly, and cost-efficient approach that modern consumers increasingly value.
