Greener cities with Anytime Carsharing
Anytime Carsharing reduces environmental impact in cities where it operates. The Czech capital and the largest Kazakh city both face mobility and sustainability challenges, and our model provides a practical, eco-friendly alternative to private car ownership.

In Prague, Anytime operates a hybrid fleet consisting of Toyota Yaris Hybrid and Corolla Hybrid models. These cars cut fuel use by up to 40% compared to conventional vehicles (3.5–4.0 l/100 km) and use regenerative braking to save energy in city traffic. Fuel is included in the rental price, making sustainable mobility not only environmentally friendly but also cost-predictable for users.
Shared scooters further expand Prague’s micromobility options. Ideal for short trips through dense urban areas, scooters consume only a fraction of the fuel used by cars and take up minimal parking space. According to the European Environment Agency, shared scooters can reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 70% compared to short-distance car journeys. This gives users a fast, flexible, and greener choice for everyday urban travel.

The growing popularity of carsharing in Prague illustrates a broader shift among young urban residents. Instead of purchasing their own vehicles, many opt for the flexibility and cost-efficiency of shared mobility.
Moreover, money saved from not investing in a personal vehicle can be spent on cultural experiences, travel, or other interests. Take student Vojta, for example, who decided against buying an older used car and instead regularly uses a Hybrid Yaris for trips or commuting to lectures. Thanks to the pay-as-you-drive model, he pays only for actual driving time and saves up to 40% of his transport budget compared to the fixed costs of insurance, servicing, and repairs of a used car. This model also encourages sharing and reduces the number of private cars on the streets, resulting in cleaner air and a more flexible transport network for the city.
Such real-life examples highlight how carsharing services like Anytime are becoming a part of urban mobility, helping to reduce traffic congestion and promote more sustainable use of resources.

Almaty struggles with some of the world’s highest levels of urban air pollution. In 2024, PM2.5 levels were measured at 4.8 times above WHO standards. One major contributor is vehicle emissions, made worse by the widespread removal of catalytic converters in private cars. Anytime addresses this problem by operating a fleet of more than 750 vehicles, including VW Polo, Hyundai Sonata, Toyota Camry, and Omoda C5, all of which comply with emission standards and maintain intact catalytic converters.
Studies show that each shared car can replace up to seven private vehicles, reducing annual CO₂ emissions by around 30%. By giving residents access to modern, well-maintained vehicles without requiring ownership, Anytime helps to limit the number of polluting cars and directly contributes to cleaner air.

Short trips of up to 5 km make up roughly 60% of all urban journeys. Anytime’s cars and scooters directly address this need. By allowing drop-offs in permitted zones, they reduce up to 30% of congestion caused by drivers circling for parking. For example, a Sonata user in Almaty can park after a meeting and immediately free the car for the next customer. This dynamic turnover reduces idle parking, increases availability, and supports smoother traffic flow.

Almaty’s air crisis demands urgent solutions, and Prague continues to pursue its long-term climate goals. Anytime is committed to introducing more hybrids and, in the future, electric vehicles in Almaty, while further expanding micromobility in Prague. We also support broader city policies such as low-emission zones and data-driven urban planning.
By shifting from ownership to sharing, and by offering efficient, eco-friendly fleets, Anytime Carsharing is helping to create greener, healthier, and more liveable cities.
