Bremen, February 2, 2022: Today marks the launch of cambio's third car-sharing station in Überseestadt, located in the parking lot at Schuppen eins. The internet agency team neusta approached cambio in advance to bring a car-sharing service to its doorstep. The agency is providing parking spaces for two small cars, which are now available in the form of two Ford Fiestas.
“Since the pandemic, our employees' need to use company cars for external appointments and business trips has decreased significantly. At the same time, we wanted to think about mobility in a more sustainable and resource-efficient way without limiting our flexibility. Car sharing combines these advantages, and the concept works,” says Carsten Meyer-Heder, managing partner of team neusta.
In addition to team neusta employees, residents of the GEWOBA “Hafenpassage” buildings in nearby Hafenstraße and Überseetor will also use the car sharing vehicles. They receive discounted access to the cambio fleet through a mobility concept for residents. GEWOBA concluded the corresponding contract with cambio within the framework of Bremen's parking space location law. “The private and commercial demand we expect here complements each other perfectly. This means that the cars are used on weekdays as well as in the evenings and on weekends. And with the even utilization of the station, the need for parking spaces for private cars in the surrounding area is significantly reduced,” explains cambio managing director Lasse Schulz.
Cambio operates a total of 470 car-sharing cars in Bremen. Of these, 390 are located at stations with reserved parking spaces. Another 80 vehicles operate “freely” in the city under the name smumo and can be parked in public parking spaces after the trip. Cambio Bremen also operates cars in Bremerhaven, Lilienthal, Achim, Wilhelmshaven, and Leer. Across Germany, more than 108,000 people use a fleet of 2,050 cambio cars in 33 cities.
