Fuel supplier and convenience retailer Topaz has been appointed as the official fuel supplier to GoCar, Ireland’s only car sharing initiative.
The car club, which currently operates in both Dublin and Cork, now has up to 70 vehicles which are equipped with Topaz Fuel cards for members to refuel on their trips.
GoCar works on a pay-per-trip basis which allows users to access a vehicle when and as they need it. Members aren’t charged for parking at any pay and display parking spaces in the Dublin City Council area. In addition some of the stresses and cost associated with motoring such as insurance premiums and vehicle servicing are also removed.
Car-sharing has become a large element of urban motoring in many European and American cities, often with direct participation or operation by major carmakers.
