Drive & Share includes vehicle, insurance, and maintenance.

Customers select a package based on their preferred vehicle category and rental package (rental period ranging from three to 12 months; mileage and insurance package). A monthly rental fare is set based on the package selected.

If the owner commits to share the vehicle at least two times a month, he or she will receive an attractive rate plus the SnappCar rental earnings.
