Autoshare

This great alternative to owning a car is called car sharing. It’s a concept pioneered and proven in Toronto over the past eight years by the AutoShare team. As an AutoShare member, you get 24 hour self-serve access to clean, modern cars – at over 85+ locations across the city – without the hassles, costs and headaches of ownership. Best of all, it costs about $6 an hour, including gas and insurance, when you drive.

As an Alumni of OCAD U, you can now join AutoShare for just $100! Of course you still get the same great service that AutoShare is famous for, including 24/7 self-serve access to vehicles at over 85 locations across Toronto and great hourly and daily rates. You'll even build an insurance record.

OCAD U Alumni can join for the following one-time costs using our Pay-As-You-Drive system (and your credit card):

$25 Application fee (per driver)
$75 Membership fee (save $25)
$ 0 deposit (save $250)

This deal is almost too good to be true...
... so it can't be used in combination with any other discounts or promotions. Thanks!

100% Canadian & locally-owned, since 1998.
