The story

City Car Club was established in 2000 in London and Edinburgh.

By 2007, it was using online booking with smartcard access to the cars. The company worked in partnership with communities to reduce the need for conventional car ownership. In 2009, it acquired WhizzGo, thereby creating the UK's largest network of hourly rental cars. This marked the first major consolidation within the UK car club industry and secured City Car Club's leading position, with 500 cars in 13 cities and a membership base of 20,000.

The company was acquired by Enterprise Rent-A-Car in 2015, and renamed in 2016.
