The Citroën C-Zero can be used beyond Madrid’s city centre, serving part of the outskirts of the city and the service is based on technology provided by Vulog, a car-sharing solutions provider.

Driving a 100% electric vehicle offers advantages in Madrid, with the service enabling free parking in spaces usually payable within the area covered. Emov users can also make journeys without being affected by traffic restrictions in the event of pollution peaks.

Users can also access areas reserved for residents and zones with temporary traffic restrictions.

“Madrid aims to become the European capital in shared electric mobility and this project is the latest initiative to have chosen Madrid as the location for its global launch,” said city Mayor, Manuela Carmena.

For his part, Emov CEO, Fernando Izquierdo, added: “Emov has arrived in Madrid with the intention of becoming one of the defining elements of this city. We are convinced our fleet, which initially has 500 100%-electric vehicles, will be very well received by residents.

“In just a few days, more than 3,000 people have already signed up to the service, which allows us to feel very confident of emov’s success.”
