Press Room
"The success of this model can be attributed to the community that they've generated around their product and their service... Never mind ecologically sound, which car-sharing is. Never mind financially smart, which car-sharing is. But the way PhillyCarShare has structured themselves, it's so much more."
-Alex Hillman, Dangerously Awesome blog, April 1, 2007
"A revolutionary concept... [that] rocked the world.... PhillyCarShare hit on the perfect vehicular solution."
-Philadelphia Inquirer, November 18, 2002
