Zipcar announces closure, affecting 650,000 drivers

Car-sharing firm Zipcar has announced it will cease operations in the UK, affecting approximately 650,000 drivers, primarily in London. This decision follows a consultation launched in late 2025, amid deepening financial losses. Customers will have their accounts open until February 16, 2026, and will receive pro-rated refunds for remaining subscriptions. The departure is described as a significant loss for both users and the broader transport landscape in London.
