It is estimated that the number of carsharing customers in Europe alone could increase from roughly 700,000 today to nearly 15 million by 2020. “In view of the enormous market potential for innovative mobility services, our goal is to break the 100 million euro mark for revenue within the next 24 months,” Entenmann added.

Daimler Financial Services is responsible for the provision of mobility services within the Daimler Group. In 2011, the company assumed responsibility for managing the car2go mobility concept developed by the Group’s Business Innovation department. In addition to car2go, the moovel smartphone app is another mobility service offered by Daimler Financial Services. At the beginning of 2013, car2go, moovel, and other mobility services were consolidated into the DFS subsidiary Daimler Mobility Services GmbH in order to ensure the optimal alignment and coordination of all services.

“Combining programs such as car2go and moovel into one company enables us to offer customers attractive and connected mobility services from a single source,” said Robert Henrich, former head of car2go and now Managing Director of Daimler Mobility Services GmbH.
