What is a rideshare car rental?
A rideshare car rental allows you to access a new and approved Uber car instantly. You simply pay a subscription fee for a car of your choice without having to worry about the usual ownership responsibilities.
Subscription offers you the freedom to drive a car for as long as you need it, and you can return or swap it when your rideshare driving needs change. With no large upfront costs or finance required, Karmo rideshare rentals are an attractive and hassle free Uber car hire.

What are the benefits of subscribing to a rideshare rental car?
By choosing to subscribe to a rideshare rental car with Karmo, you can enjoy several benefits that alleviate the expenses associated with owning a car for rideshare purposes. With our subscription, you won’t have to worry about insurance, maintenance, omnibus licensing, or registration costs.
Moreover, you can avoid putting excessive kilometres on your personal vehicle, preventing rapid depreciation. Additionally, it may be possible to claim your weekly rental fee as a business expense with the guidance of your accountant.
We strive to provide you with a cost-effective and convenient solution for your rideshare needs.
How many kilometres can I drive on a rideshare rental subscription plan?
Karmo provides a generous kilometre allowance of 1,500 km per week for rideshare subscriptions. You can drive worry-free within this limit.
In the case that you exceed this amount, you will be charged for the additional kilometres at the rate of 30c/ kilometre. Your kilometre allowance details are in your contract, as well as on the window sticker located in your car.
We encourage responsible usage of our vehicles to ensure fairness and maintain the quality of our service. If we notice that you consistently exceed the kilometre allowance by more than 10%, we may need to discuss this with you. In such cases, we may request the vehicle to be returned or initiate a contract renegotiation to find a solution that best fits your needs.
What is the minimum rideshare subscription plan duration?
The rideshare rental subscription plans have a minimum duration of 1 week and all rideshare plans require a 1-week notice period before returning the vehicle. We want to ensure you are aware of these timeframes to facilitate a smooth and hassle-free experience.
Within rideshare subscriptions, there is a maximum weekly allowance of 1,500 km and it is not possible to add extra kilometres to your plan.
What is included in the rideshare rental subscription plan?
At Karmo, we take pride in offering comprehensive car subscription plans that cover various services and expenses related to your vehicle. Our rideshare rental subscription plans include:
- Cost of the Car: The subscription fee covers the cost of the vehicle itself, allowing you to enjoy driving without the burden of car ownership.
- Registration Fees: We handle the registration fees associated with the vehicle, ensuring that it remains legally compliant throughout your subscription period.
- Roadside Assistance: Our car subscription plans include roadside assistance services, providing you with peace of mind in case of any unexpected breakdowns or emergencies on the road.
- Karmo Provided Damage Cover: We provide damage coverage for the subscribed vehicle, safeguarding you against potential damages and accidents.
