A car just when you need one
Carsharing gives you all the freedom of driving without the hassle and cost of car ownership. Our vehicles can be picked up and dropped off around central Winnipeg. See if our locations are the right fit for you, then join and share a diverse network of nearly 140 vehicles, 24/7!
Carsharing releases you from the cost and hassle of ownership.
Aside from the simple benefit of paying for a vehicle just when you need one, carsharing benefits the environment and your community.
Carsharing is a social and environmental choice that supports community transit and environmental goals, including:
- decreasing personal car ownership
- reducing vehicle distance travelled
- improving urban land use and development
- providing affordable access to vehicles
- motivating people to walk, cycle and use public transit
- decreasing dependence on fossil fuels
In Manitoba, transportation is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing almost half of a household’s personal emissions. Every car in our fleet represents 13-15 cars taken off the road.
Plus, car ownership is expensive. The average car owner spends $8,000 per year on their vehicle, while the average Peg City member spends $2,000.

*Conditions apply. See our Member Manual for all rates and details.
*$1.00 per hour additional charge for large and loadable vehicles (e.g. trucks, minivans, cargo vans)
**Peg City Car Co-op reserves the right to charge a fuel surcharge to protect the co-op from price fluctuations.
***50 kilometres included only applies to FLO bookings that are not price-matched. See FIX/FLO Price Matching Explained for more details.
Our Member Plus plan offers FIX price matching on FLO trips. Any FLO trip under four hours will be measured against the cost of a four-hour FIX booking (plus km). You’ll get the FIX rate on your FLO booking when FIX is cheaper. FLO bookings longer than four hours will be price-matched hour for hour with kilometres factored in. This means that 50km are not included when a FLO booking is price-matched to FIX, but you’re still getting the cheaper rate.
Ex. Driving 20 km over three hours with a FLO car, the charge is $30 for time and distance. Here, the FIX rate would be ($3 x 4hr) + (20×0.45) = $21. In this case, you’d get the FIX rate and pay $21 for your FLO booking.
The FIX/FLO price match is not included in our Member Manual and is subject to change at Peg City Car Co-op’s discretion.
FLO bookings of two hours or fewer benefit from a fuelling credit. If you use our fuel card to purchase at least $20 in gas, you’ll receive a time credit of up to 10 minutes.
If your total booking is less than 10 minutes, the time credit will be equivalent to the total booking time. Expect a few business days’ delay before the credit appears on your account.
A credit of up to 10 minutes also applies to winter FLO bookings for snow clearing. Your billed trip time begins after 10 minutes or when you start driving, whichever comes first.
If you unlock the doors and start driving after six minutes, you’ll get six minutes of credit. If you unlock the doors and start driving after 13 minutes, you’ll get 10 minutes of credit.
The snow-clearing credit applies to all FLO bookings, regardless of weather.

FAQS
What is carsharing?
Carsharing is a membership-based service that provides flexible 24/7 access to cars, trucks, vans, and other vehicles. Individuals, families, and businesses can use it.
Members receive a key fob and an online account that allows them to book and access a vehicle where and when they want it. Once you become a member, you can book a car for as little as a few minutes and as many as 28 consecutive days.
We offer two ways to carshare with round-trip FIX vehicles and free-floating FLO vehicles.
Am I eligible?
To become a Member/Driver, you must:
- Be at least 18 years old;*
- Currently hold a Manitoba 5F class licence or an equivalent;**
- No speeding convictions 30km above the speed limit within the last 3 years;
- Maximum 4 minor driving infractions within last 3 years;
- No more than one (1) at-fault collision in the previous 3 years; and
- Have no criminal driving charges.
All applicants must produce a three-year driving history to prove they meet our criteria. If you have a licence from Manitoba, we’ll process a driving history request on your behalf. Drivers with a licence from outside of Manitoba who are unable to produce a three-year driving history may choose to complete our Member Eligibility Declaration waiver instead.
*Drivers as young as 16 can join as an additional driver with a 5L or 5I licence, so long as they’re added to the account of a full Member with a 5F licence. Special conditions apply. Learn more about this program here.
**Drivers over 18 are also welcome to apply with a 5I licence or equivalent, with special conditions. Click here to learn about our 5I program.
How does it work?
Our service is member-based, so you must sign up before accessing our vehicles. Once registration is complete, members conveniently make and manage all their own bookings.
Round-trip FIX vehicles are always found in and returned to the same designated parking spots. They must be reserved ahead of time. You can reserve a FIX vehicle as much as six months in advance from as little as 1 hour and up to 28 days
Our free-floating FLO vehicles have no home location. They can be parked on the street in the FLO Zone or at a FLO Drop-Off Point. FLO trips are more spontaneous. They can be reserved through our mobile app up to 30 minutes in advance.
Whether FIX or FLO, head to the car at the appointed time and drive it as if it were yours! FIX vehicles need to be returned to their designated parking spots before the booking time expires. A booking with one of our FLO vehicles ends when it is brought back into the FLO Zone or FLO Drop-Off Point and released, so there is no need to specify an end time!
By providing two ways to carshare from one app, we offer our members the highest level of flexibility. Need to book a vehicle in advance for a special occasion? Book a FIX vehicle! Only want a short booking or need more flexibility on the end time? Book a FLO!
How do I know if carsharing is the right fit for me?
You primarily get around by walking, biking, or transit but would like to access a car sometimes. Or maybe you want access to a second car without the added cost of ownership. Carsharing also works well for those living centrally who are paying a lot for parking or whose building doesn’t provide parking.
Carsharing is a great option for businesses or organizations that need a vehicle regularly but not all the time. Our fleet includes minivans and cargo vans if you need to move merchandise, people, or equipment. Please note that you cannot use a carsharing vehicle for delivery or rideshare services like Skip or Uber.
