Wrocław to launch electric car rentals next year

The city of Wrocław will launch a short-term city-wide electric car rental service next spring. Some 200 Nissan Leafs will be available to rent with 30 charging stations located throughout the city. The service will be operated by Enigma which won the tender for the service. According to Gazeta Wrocławska, the price for kilometer will range between PLN 1-1.2. The cars are said to be drive for up to 250 kilometers on one charge. And the vehicles will be able to enjoy some parks, including having access to bus lanes and some roads that are off-limits to standard vehicles. Parking will also be free. The system will be similar to the bike rental system available already in bigger Polish cities. Several cities are working on similar solution, but no such services have been launched yet. According to tender stipulations, Enigma will be responsible for the full cost of operations.
