DriveItAway Holdings, Inc., a provider of digital-first, flexible lease-to-own automotive platforms, has expanded its service into nine major U.S. cities this December.
This national expansion resulted from the joint mobility program between DriveItAway and Free2move, branded as Free2move Powered by DriveItAway.
Free2move is the global mobility division and a subsidiary of Stellantis, which provides the industrial scale and global expertise required to deliver this wider service area.
Following the launch in San Diego with the Mossy Automotive Group in November, DriveItAway’s flexible lease/subscription service started in the following cities and markets:
Miami
Fort Lauderdale
Orlando
Tampa
Key West
Minneapolis/St. Paul
Denver
St. Louis
Los Angeles
The flexible leases and subscriptions require no down payment, no minimum credit score, and no long-term lease commitment, thanks to its proprietary insurance and risk-management architecture.
“This expansion represents a key milestone in making mobility accessible to people who have been priced out of traditional financing,” said John F. Possumato, founder and CEO of DriveItAway Holdings, in Dec. 23 news release. “No one should be locked out of reliable transportation simply because they can’t meet outdated credit or down-payment thresholds. With Free2move as our partner, we now have the platform, supply, and scale to deliver real solutions, at the moment consumers need it most.”
Benjamin Maillard, managing director of Free2move North America, added, “Free2move was created to deliver flexible mobility solutions to a rapidly evolving market. Our roll-out with DriveItAway marks an important step forward, expanding flexible leasing to more cities and more drivers who need accessible mobility today. The national scale-up of Free2move Powered by DriveItAway is made possible by our dealer network, which is now serving these customers and bridging the gap in accessible mobility.”
DriveItAway plans to expand soon into additional U.S. cities in 2026, driven by dealer participation, regional demand, and mobility trends. Further market announcements and performance updates will follow as the rollout progresses.
