Amber puts a shared car at your door

The national car-sharing platform Amber will start in Eindhoven in September with the service that users can take or leave an Amber car on any corner of the street, so to speak. Amber's new service makes car sharing easier than car ownership. Amber is the first to make car sharing easy and accessible in this new way.

Car is brought

In Eindhoven there are already many hubs within a reasonable walking distance, but now Amber also brings the car as close as possible to you for those who live a little further away. If possible, even up to your front door. Hans de Penning, CEO of Amber: 'At first Amber was especially suitable for drivers if they worked or worked for a specific company that was our customer. Or if they lived near a hub.

With this service, Amber becomes available to many more people. The intention is to further expand the service to other cities if successful Amber already has many hubs. The advantage of your own car is that you can use it wherever and whenever you want. That gives freedom. With the Amber service we surpass this feeling, because we have already realized the certainty that the Amber car will be there when the user needed it. Now we are also bringing the car to them ”. 

Car sharing on the rise

The Dutch increasingly share the car. Good for the environment and you also save money. With car sharing, you do not need to have a parking space in front of your home, you do not need to buy a parking permit and, above all, you do not have any monthly fixed costs. According to the ANWB, an average middle class costs about € 600 per month. The biggest obstacle to driving a shared car is the fear that the car will not be there when you need it. That is why Amber offers the 100% ride guarantee. If you make a reservation, Amber will make sure the car is there. Clean and ready to go. The new service in Eindhoven also removes the obstacle that you have to walk too far to get to the car.
