Our purpose
Before carsharing, there was Modo
In 1997, our first members set out to fill an unmet need — affordable, accessible transportation that minimizes environmental impact and changes the way people think about how they get around. And so Modo was born.
Our purpose hasn’t changed since then. We’re here to build a sustainable, inclusive future where shared vehicles strengthen communities.
Our mission
Our daily work is to help people get where they need to go, no matter the trip, without the burden of owning a vehicle.
Why Modo exists
While time and technology change the transportation industry, we stay focused on getting more cars off the road, changing how people look at car ownership, and having a positive impact on the world we live in.
When you join Modo you still own a car — in fact, you own a whole fleet of them. You just share them with other members. So you get all the benefits of collective car ownership while freeing yourself from private ownership, which is expensive and inefficient.
Better together
Because Modo is a co-op, our collective power can accomplish so much more. Unlike other carsharing platforms, Modo exists to make a difference in the lives of our members — always putting people before profit. We reinvest our earnings in fleet upgrades, new technologies, and innovations in our service model.
In other words, we make just enough to cover our costs. Any profit goes back into making our service even better for our members. Modo member-owners always get the best value possible for their transportation needs — and a say in how the business operates.
