Vulog says it is powering Volkswagen’s WeShare operation in Berlin with a fleet of 1,500 e-Golfs, while 500 e-up cars will be added in a few months.
The app-based WeShare service will enable users to access the fleet of electric Volkswagen cars from smartphones on an instant ‘free-floating’ basis – meaning they can begin and end their journeys at locations across Berlin.

The scheme makes its debut in the German capital, but Volkswagen will soon launch WeShare in several more cities, including Prague, Hamburg and across Europe.
“WeShare is going to drastically change the way people move in Berlin and allow urban users to engage with e-mobility,” said Vulog CEO, Gregory Ducongé
“All carmakers have this incredible opportunity in front of them to transform urban mobility by deploying large shared electric fleets into our cities where sustainable mobility has become a top priority.”
Vulog provides the software platform which integrates and connects various critical functions enabling car sharing schemes to operate smoothly.
