Car2go hikes hourly rental rates by as much as a third

By-the-minute car rental service Car2go is raising its rates for short trips under the guise of variable pricing, the company announced to its users today.

The new cost structure takes effect next month.

Meanwhile, it’s also possible to encounter a new higher per-minute rate of up to 49 cents when cars are in demand or in a high-use location.

Blocks of time from half an hour to four hours are all increasing in price: The current flat rates are now floor rates, with the possibility you’ll be paying as much as a third more than before.

For example, a two-hour block currently costs $29; soon it will cost somewhere between $30 and $39.

Again, you won’t know until you open the app to check it out, at which point you’re probably already committed.
