Free2move, a new global mobility app from Stellantis in Auburn Hills, is designed to offer car rental customers seamless access to vehicles not available through any other brokers.

In the tight automobile market, which has seen dramatic shortages over the past couple of years, Free2move says it is dedicated to maximizing the customer experience with more than 450,000 vehicles available in 170 countries.

With vehicle rental demand increasing over the past three months, Free2move has established Mobility Hubs across Europe and the U.S., with fleets of vehicles available by the minute, by the week, or by the month, accessed through the Free2move app.

The company states it has developed a profitable business model for a sustainable mobility solution.

Once rented, the vehicles can be taken wherever the customer desires, with a 155-mile per day default. For customers traveling in the U.S., Jeep Renegade or Jeep Compass vehicles are available.

Across Europe, Free2move customers will find a variety of options depending on the country, electric, plug-in Hybrid or internal combustion engine, starting from Peugeot 108, Peugeot 208 to Citroën C4, Opel Corsa, Opel Mokka, Peugeot 3008 or Citroën Spacetourer.

“At Free2move, the customer experience is at the heart of what we do,” says Brigitte Courtehoux, CEO of Free2move. “Our dynamic solution is constantly evolving to predict our customer demands. And we are dedicated to growth and expansion — through our recent acquisition of Opel Rent, for example, we’ve expanded our fleets and the cities our services are offered in. The summer months are traditionally travel months, and we know Free2move Rent will deliver the best vehicle access options for our customers.”

As part of the Stellantis group, Free2move has the power to allocate more vehicles into the rental sector, especially during the supply shortage. Free2move also is integrated on both Kayak and Skyscanner metasearches, further facilitating access and availability. Free2move Rent also includes its own fleet, as well as access to fleets from providers such as Hertz, Avis, Budget, and Europcar.

According to Stellantis, Free2Move is the only global mobility brand offering a complete and unique ecosystem for its private and professional customers around the world. Relying on data and technology, Free2Move puts the customer experience at the heart of the business to reinvent mobility. It offers a range of services to satisfy the multiple travel needs of its customers from one minute to several days or months with car-sharing service, short-, medium-, or long-term rentals, as well as the reservation of VTC drivers, parking spaces, and charging stations via the app.
